This package provides extended support for our spatie/enum package in Laravel.
You can install the package via composer:
composer require spatie/laravel-enumChances are that if you're working in a Laravel project, you'll want to use enums within your models. This package provides a trait you can use in these models, to allow allow automatic casting between stored enum values and enum objects.
use Spatie\Enum\HasEnums;
class TestModel extends Model
{
use HasEnums;
protected $enums = [
'status' => TestModelStatus::class,
];
}You can also define enum as nullable:
protected $enums = [
'status' => TestModelStatus::class.':nullable',
];By using the HasEnums trait, you'll be able to work with the status field like so:
$model = TestModel::create([
'status' => StatusEnum::DRAFT(),
]);You can set the value of an enum field with its textual value:
$model->status = 'published';This can be useful when filling data from a validated request:
$model->fill($request->validated());
// …
$model->status = StatusEnum::PUBLISHED();
// …
$model->status->isEqual(StatusEnum::ARCHIVED());In some cases, enums should be stored as integer (index) in the database.
By using the $casts property you can cast your status attribute to int or integer and the trait will store the index instead of the value.

- Automatic value casting #1
- Mapping support spatie/enum#25
- Model scopes #4
- Validation #5
- Request Transformation #7
The HasEnums trait also provides some useful scopes to query your database.
These scopes will also take the optional mapping you provided into account.
Post::whereEnum('status', StatusEnum::DRAFT());
Post::whereNotEnum('status', StatusEnum::PUBLISHED());You may provide multiple enums as an array:
Post::whereEnum('status', [StatusEnum::DRAFT(), StatusEnum::ARCHIVED()]);
Post::whereNotEnum('status', [StatusEnum::PUBLISHED()]);You may also provide textual input:
Post::whereEnum('status', 'archived');
Post::whereEnum('status', 'legacy archived value');composer testPlease see CHANGELOG for more information on what has changed recently.
