## Installation
To get started with Laravel Invite Codes, use Composer to add the package to your project's dependencies:
```bash
composer require mateusjunges/laravel-invite-codes
```
Or add this line in your composer.json, inside the `require` section:
```bash
{
"require": {
"mateusjunges/laravel-invite-codes": "^2.0",
}
}
```
then run `composer install`.
All migrations required for this package are already included. If you need to customize the tables, you can [publish them][migrations] with:
```bash
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Junges\InviteCodes\InviteCodesServiceProvider" --tag="invite-codes-migrations"
```
and set the config for `custom_migrations` to `true`, which is `false` by default.
```php
'custom_migrations' => true,
```
After the migrations have been published you can create the tables on your database by running the migrations:
```bash
php artisan migrate
```
If you change the table names on migrations, please publish the config file and update the tables array. You can publish the config file with:
```bash
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Junges\InviteCodes\InviteCodesServiceProvider" --tag="invite-codes-config"
```
When published, the `config/invite-codes.php` config file contains:
```php
[
'invite_model' => \Junges\InviteCodes\Models\Invite::class,
],
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Tables
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Specify the basics authentication tables that you are using.
| Once you required this package, the following tables are
| created by default when you run the command
|
| php artisan migrate
|
| If you want to change this tables, please keep the basic structure unchanged.
|
*/
'tables' => [
'invites_table' => 'invites',
],
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| User
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| To use the ProtectedByInviteCode middleware provided by this package, you need to
| specify the email column you use in the model you use for authentication.
| If not specified, only invite code with no use restrictions can be used in this middleware.
|
*/
'user' => [
'email_column' => 'email',
],
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Custom migrations
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| If you want to publish this package migrations and edit with new custom columns, change it to true.
*/
'custom_migrations' => false,
];
```
# Usage
This package provides a middleware called `ProtectedByInviteCodeMiddleware`. If you want to use it to protect your
routes, you need to register it in your `$routeMiddleware` array, into `app/Http/Kernel.php` file:
```php
$routeMiddleware = [
'protected_by_invite_codes' => ProtectedByInviteCodeMiddleware::class,
];
```
Now you can protect your routes using middleware rules:
```php
Route::get('some-route', function() {
//
})->middleware('protected_by_invite_codes');
```
You can also add it to the `__construct()`, in your controllers:
```php
public function __construct()
{
$this->middleware('protected_by_invite_codes');
}
```
> **Note**
This middleware expects to find an invitation code within the `invite_code` key of your request.
## Creating invite codes
To create a new invite code, you must use the `InviteCodes` facade. Here is a simple example:
```php
$invite_code = \Junges\InviteCodes\Facades\InviteCodes::create()
->expiresAt('2020-02-01')
->maxUsages(10)
->restrictUsageTo('[email protected]')
->save();
```
The code above will create a new invite code, which can be used 10 times only by a logged in user who has the specified email `[email protected]`.
The methods you can use with the `InviteCodes` facade are listed below:
### Set the expiration date of your invite code
To set the expiration date of your invite code you can use one of the following methods:
- `expiresAt()`: This method accept a date string in `yyyy-mm-dd` format or a `Carbon` instance, and set the expiration date to the specified date.
- `expiresIn()`: This method accept an integer, and set the expiration date to now plus the specified amount of days.
### Restrict usage to some specific user:
To restrict the usage of an invite code you can use the `restrictUsageTo()` method, and pass in the `email` of the user who will be able to use this invite code.
### Set the maximum allowed usages for an invite code:
If you want that your invite code be used a limited amount of times, you can set the max usages limit with the `maxUsages()` method, and pass an integer with the amount
of allowed usages.
## Create multiple invite codes
If you want to create more than one invite code with the same configs, you can use the `make()` method.
This method generates the specified amount of invite codes. For example:
```php
\Junges\InviteCodes\Facades\InviteCodes::create()
->maxUsages(10)
->expiresIn(30)
->make(10);
```
The code above will create 10 new invite codes which can be used 10 times each, and will expire in 30 days from now.
## Redeeming invite codes
To redeem an invite code, you can use the `redeem` method:
```php
\Junges\InviteCodes\Facades\InviteCodes::redeem('YOUR-INVITE-CODE');
```
When any invite is redeemed, the `InviteRedeemedEvent` will be dispatched.
## Redeeming invite codes without dispatching events
If you want to redeem an invite codes without dispatch the `InviteRedeemedEvent`,
you can use the `withoutEvents()` method:
```php
\Junges\InviteCodes\Facades\InviteCodes::withoutEvents()->redeem('YOUR-INVITE-CODE');
```
# Customizing how invite codes are generated
By default, this package generates a random 16 characters string that. Sometimes, you may want to customize how your invitation code is generated,
for adding a prefix to the invitation code or anything you need.
If you need to customize how your invite codes are generated, you can add a call to the InviteCodes facade `createInviteCodesusing` method, in your service provider:
```php
\Junges\InviteCodes\Facades\InviteCodes::createInviteCodeUsing(static function () {
return 'THIS-IS-MY-INVITE-'.\Illuminate\Support\Str::random();
});
```
From now on, all of your invites will have the `THIS-IS-MY-INVITE-` prefix.
Also, the package itself will handle duplicate invites, so you don't need to take care of that yourself.
# Extending the `Invite` model
The `\Junges\InviteCodes\Models\Invite` is fully extendable and replaceable. You can extend or create a new model to be used instead of the default one,
and the only thing you need to do is implement the `\Junges\InviteCodes\Contracts\InviteContract` interface, which contains some required methods for this package to work.
After implementing the contract, you need to change the `models.invite_model` configuration value in `config/invite-codes.php`.
# Handling invite codes exceptions
If you want to override the default `403` response, you can catch the exceptions using the laravel exception handler:
```php
public function render($request, Exception $exception)
{
if ($exception instanceof \Junges\InviteCodes\Exceptions\InviteWithRestrictedUsageException) {
//
}
if ($exception instanceof \Junges\InviteCodes\Exceptions\ExpiredInviteCodeException) {
//
}
if ($exception instanceof \Junges\InviteCodes\Exceptions\DuplicateInviteCodeException) {
//
}
if ($exception instanceof \Junges\InviteCodes\Exceptions\InvalidInviteCodeException) {
//
}
if ($exception instanceof \Junges\InviteCodes\Exceptions\UserLoggedOutException) {
//
}
if ($exception instanceof \Junges\InviteCodes\Exceptions\InviteMustBeAbleToBeRedeemedException) {
//
}
if ($exception instanceof \Junges\InviteCodes\Exceptions\SoldOutException) {
//
}
if ($exception instanceof \Junges\InviteCodes\Exceptions\RouteProtectedByInviteCodeException) {
//
}
return parent::render($request, $exception);
}
```
# Using artisan commands
This package also provides a command to delete all expired invites from your database. You can use it like this:
```php
\Illuminate\Support\Facades\Artisan::call('invite-codes:clear');
```
After all expired invites has been deleted, it will dispatch the `DeletedExpiredInvitesEvent`.
