A very simple yet very integrated Laravel status package (now using native enums, no database required)
composer require open-southeners/laravel-model-status Imaging you've a Post model, you should then create an enum like PostStatus that might look like this one:
use OpenSoutheners\LaravelModelStatus\ModelStatus; enum PostStatus: int implements ModelStatus { case Draft = 1; case Published = 2; case Hidden = 3; }Now remember to import ModelStatus interface and use it in the enum.
Adding 3 things: The ModelStatuses PHP attribute, implementing Statusable interface to your class and using HasStatuses trait.
use OpenSoutheners\LaravelModelStatus\Attributes\ModelStatuses; use OpenSoutheners\LaravelModelStatus\HasStatuses; use OpenSoutheners\LaravelModelStatus\Statusable; // Remember to replace PostStatus::class with whatever the enum you are using // Also second option is a boolean that enable/disable events #[ModelStatuses(PostStatus::class, true)] class Post extends Model implements Statusable { use HasStatuses; }$post = new Post(); // Set status to post instance $post->setStatus(PostStatus::Published); // Set status to post instance and persist to DB $post->setStatus(PostStatus::Published, true);// Set status to post instance only when current status is "Draft" $post->setStatusWhen(PostStatus::Draft, PostStatus::Published); // Set status to post instance and persist to DB only when current status is "Draft" $post->setStatusWhen(PostStatus::Draft, PostStatus::Published, true);// Check current status is "Published" $post->hasStatus(PostStatus::Published); // Check current status is "Published" as string (type sensitive) $post->hasStatus('Published');// Whenever you save the model updates and don't want to trigger events Post::withoutStatusEvents(fn () => $post->setStatus(PostStatus::Published));Right now this package offers a OpenSoutheners\LaravelModelStatus\Events\StatusSwapped event that you can use to get changes performed with setStatusWhen method.
