Transform your PHP to JavaScript
Begin by installing this package through Composer., (*1)
composer require mikkellindblom/laravel-js-helper
When this provider is booted, you'll gain access to a helpful JavaScript facade, which you may use in your controllers., (*2)
public function index()
{
JavaScript::put([
'foo' => 'bar',
'user' => User::first(),
'age' => 29
]);
return View::make('hello');
}
In Laravel 5, of course add
use JavaScript;to the top of your controller., (*3)
Using the code above, you'll now be able to access foo, user, and age from your JavaScript., (*4)
console.log(foo); // bar console.log(user); // User Obj console.log(age); // 29
This package, by default, binds your JavaScript variables to a "footer" view, which you will include. For example:, (*5)
<body>
<h1>My Page</h1>
@include ('footer') // <-- Variables prepended to this view
</body>
Naturally, you can change this default to a different view. See below., (*6)
If using Laravel, there are only two configuration options that you'll need to worry about. First, publish the default configuration., (*7)
php artisan vendor:publish // Or... php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Mikkellindblom\js-helper\JavaScript\JavaScriptServiceProvider"
This will add a new configuration file to: config/javascript.php., (*8)
<?php
return [
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| View to Bind JavaScript Vars To
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Set this value to the name of the view (or partial) that
| you want to prepend all JavaScript variables to.
|
*/
'bind_js_vars_to_this_view' => 'footer',
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| JavaScript Namespace
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| By default, we'll add variables to the global window object. However,
| it's recommended that you change this to some namespace - anything.
| That way, you can access vars, like "SomeNamespace.someVariable."
|
*/
'js_namespace' => 'window'
];
You need to update this file to specify which view you want your new JavaScript variables to be prepended to. Typically, your footer is a good place for this., (*9)
If you include something like a layouts/partials/footer partial, where you store your footer and script references, then make the bind_js_vars_to_this_view key equal to that path. Behind the scenes, the Laravel implementation of this package will listen for when that view is composed, and essentially paste the JS variables within it., (*10)
By default, all JavaScript vars will be nested under the global window object. You'll likely want to change this. Update the
js_namespace key with the name of your desired JavaScript namespace. It can be anything. Just remember: if you change this setting (which you should),
then you'll access all JavaScript variables, like so:, (*11)
MyNewNamespace.varName
Run this artisan command after changing the view path., (*12)
php artisan config:clear
