Options for Laravel

Global or per-model options, settings and preferences for Laravel. Each option is a small class with its key, default value, cast and validation rules; values can belong to the whole app or to any Eloquent model (a user, a team, a tenant) and are cached, typed and evented.

Installation

Requires PHP 8.4 and Laravel 12 or 13.

composer require roundly-consulting/options-for-laravel
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="options-migrations"
php artisan migrate

If your owner models have UUID/ULID keys, set OPTIONS_KEY_TYPE before migrating.

Usage

Describe an option once (php artisan make:option ThemeOption --key=theme scaffolds it):

use RoundlyConsulting\Options\BaseOption;

final class ThemeOption extends BaseOption
{
    public function key(): string
    {
        return 'theme';
    }

    public function default(): mixed
    {
        return 'light';
    }

    public function rules(): array|string
    {
        return ['in:light,dark'];
    }
}

Then read and write it — globally or for any model:

use RoundlyConsulting\Options\Facades\Options;

Options::get(ThemeOption::class);                 // 'light' — the default until a value is stored
Options::set(ThemeOption::class, 'dark');         // validated against rules(), cached, fires OptionSet

Options::set(ThemeOption::class, 'light', $user); // scoped to one model
Options::for($user)->get(ThemeOption::class);     // 'light'
Options::forget(ThemeOption::class, $user);       // back to the default
