Laravel Royalty

A user points package for Laravel that can be used to give rewards, loyalty or experience points with real time support.

How does it work?

Simply every point has an action file which when called will resolve the model for a given point.

The action file is used to assign points to a user.

The reason we use action (files) is:

  • It makes it easy to track points.
  • It's easier to switch out points eg. you want to bump up the points a user gets on completing a lesson from 50 to 100, you just create a new action and you replace the old one.

Installation

Use composer to install the package:

composer require miracuthbert/laravel-royalty

Setup

The package takes advantage of Laravel Auto-Discovery, so it doesn't require you to manually add the ServiceProvider.

If you don't use auto-discovery, add the ServiceProvider to the providers array in config/app.php

Miracuthbert\Royalty\RoyaltyServiceProvider::class

You must then publish the config and migrations file.

Using the Setup command

You can do all the necessary setup using the royalty:setup in your command console

php artisan royalty:setup

Update the keys in "config/royalty.php" before migrating your database You can set the model to be used for points.

If you want to reset either config or migrations use the commands below in your console

Publish Config

php artisan vendor:publish --provider=Miracuthbert\Royalty\RoyaltyServiceProvider --tag=royalty-config

Setup the user model key in config to indicate which User model to use

Publish Migrations

php artisan vendor:publish --provider=Miracuthbert\Royalty\RoyaltyServiceProvider --tag=royalty-migrations

Before migrating the database make sure you setup the user model key in config

Publish Vue Components

A simple Vue component is included to display a user's points in real-time anytime they are given points. See Real-time section under usage for more.

php artisan vendor:publish --provider=Miracuthbert\Royalty\RoyaltyServiceProvider --tag=royalty-components

The package does not tie you to use a specific front-end framework to listen to the fired event, so feel free to experiment

Usage

Setting the User model

First, setup the user model key in the config.

Then add CollectsPoints trait in the respective model.

use CollectsPoints;

Creating Points

Let's take an example of a user completing a Lesson in a course, we can create a CompletedLesson.

Using Console Command

You can use the command:

php artisan royalty:action CompletedLesson

// with specific namespace
php artisan royalty:action Course\\CompletedLesson

This will create an action file under the Royalty\Actions folder in the app directory or a corresponding one as specified in the config/royalty.php file.

It will include:

  • key method with the unique key which will be used to identify created from the slug of the Action name.

You can also use these options along with the command:

  • --key to override the key generated from class name.
  • --name to create the point in the database (use along with the points option).
  • --points the points for the given action.
  • --description the description of the point.

If you just created the point file only you need to create a record with reference to the action in the database.

See Adding Points in the Database section on adding a point in the database.

Creating Manually

To create a point manually you need to create an action file and also a record referencing the action in the database.

Creating the Action File

To create a point action file, you need to create a class that extends Miracuthbert\Royalty\Actions\ActionAbstract.

namespace App\Royalty\Actions;

use Miracuthbert\Royalty\Actions\ActionAbstract;

class CompletedLesson extends ActionAbstract
{
    /**
     * Set the action key.
     *
     * @return mixed
     */
    public function key()
    {
        return 'completed-lesson';
    }
}
Adding Points in the Database
use Miracuthbert\Royalty\Models\Point;

$point = Point::create([
    'name' => 'Completed Lesson',
    'key' => 'completed-lesson',
    'description' => 'Reward for completing a lesson',
    'points' => 100,
]);

You can also create bulk points using, for example a seeder:

$points = [
    [
        'name' => 'Completed Lesson',
        'key' => 'completed-lesson',
        'points' => 100,
    ],
    [
        'name' => 'Completed Course',
        'key' => 'completed-course',
        'points' => 500,
    ],
    
    // grouped
    [
        'name' => 'Grades',
        'key' => 'grades',
        'points' => 100,
        'children' => [
            [
                'name' => 'Excellent',
                'points' => 100,
            ],
            [
                'name' => 'Very Good',
                'points' => 90,
            ],
            [
                'name' => 'Good',
                'points' => 80,
            ],
        ],
    ],
];

foreach ($points as $point) {
    $exists = Point::where('key', $point['key'])->first();

    if (!$exists) {
        Miracuthbert\Royalty\Models\Point::create($point);
    }
} 

Giving Points

To give points, just call the givePoints method on an instance of a user.

// user instance
$user = User::find(1);
$user->givePoints(new CompletedLesson());

// using request user
$request->user()->givePoints(new CompletedLesson());

// using auth user
auth()->user()->givePoints(new CompletedLesson());

Getting User's Points

To get user points, just call the points method on an instance of a user chaining one of the following methods:

  • number: The raw points value
  • number: For a formatted number value, i.e 1,000, 1,000,000
  • shorthand: For a formatted string value, i.e 1k, 10.5k, 1m
// user instance
$user = User::find(1);
$user->points()->number();
$user->points()->shorthand();

// using request user
$request->user()->points()->number();
$request->user()->points()->shorthand();

// using auth user
auth()->user()->points()->number();
auth()->user()->points()->shorthand();

Real-time

Whenever a user is given points a PointsGiven event is fired.

Broadcast Channel

It broadcasts to the users (private) channel as set in the channel key of broadcast in config/royalty.php.

The channel should exist in channels file under routes or your respective user channel

An example of the channel route:

Broadcast::channel('users.{id}', function ($user, $id) {
    return (int) $user->id === (int) $id;
});

Listening to the Event

You can then listen to it using the points-given or the set value of the name key under broadcast in config/royalty.php.

Example using Laravel Echo with Vue.js:

    Echo.private(`users.${this.userId}`)
        .listen('.points-given', (e) => {
            this.point = e.point
            this.userPoints = e.user_points
        })
Vue Component

There is a Vue component included with the package. Use command below to publish it:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider=Miracuthbert\Royalty\RoyaltyServiceProvider --tag=royalty-components

The published component will be placed in your resources/js/components directory. Once the components have been published, you should register them in your resources/js/app.js file:

Vue.component('royalty-badge', require('./components/royalty/RoyaltyBadge.vue').default);

After registering the component, make sure to run npm run dev to recompile your assets. Once you have recompiled your assets, you may drop the components into one of your application's templates to get started:

<royalty-badge
  :user-id="{{ auth()->user()->id }}"
  initial-points="{{ auth()->user()->points()->shorthand() }}"
/>

Console Commands

There are three commands within the package:

  • royalty:setup: Used to setup the package files
  • royalty:action: Used to create an action file and point
  • royalty:actions: Used to list points and their related actions
