# Migration

This package comes with a very hands-off approach for migrations. If you check the new migrations published in `database/migrations`, you will find something very similar to this:

```php
use Vendor\Package\Models\Car;

return Car::migration();
```

Worry not, the migration will still work. It has been _simplified_ for easy customization.

## Adding columns

To add columns to the migration, add a callback to the `migration()` method that receives the table blueprint.

```php
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Laragear\Package\Models\Car;

return Car::migration(function (Blueprint $table) {
    $table->boolean('is_cool')->default(true);
    $table->string('color');
});
```

> [!INFO]
>
> If your package doesn't support additional tables, the callback never executes. Refer to the package documentation.

## After Up & Before Down

If you need to execute logic after creating the table, or before dropping it, use the `afterUp()` and `beforeDown()` methods, respectively.

```php
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Laragear\Package\Models\Car;

return Car::migration()
    ->afterUp(function (Blueprint $table) {
        $table->foreignId('sociable_id')->references('id')->on('users');
    })
    ->beforeDown(function (Blueprint $table) {
        $table->dropForeign('sociable_id');
    });
```

### Morphs

You may find yourself needing to alter the type of the morph relation created in the migration. For example, the migration will create an integer-type morph that you won't be able to attach to an ULID-based User model.

To change the morph type, use the `morph...` property access preferably, or the `morph()` method with `numeric`, `uuid` or `ulid` if you need to also set an index name (in case your database engine doesn't play nice with large index names).

```php
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Laragear\Package\Models\Car;

return Car::migration()->morphUuid;

return Car::migration()->morph('uuid', 'shorter_morph_index_name');
```

## Custom table name

By default, tables are set using the model name in plural. If you want to change the table name from the standard, set it using the `$useTable` static property of the target Model. You should do this on the `register()` method of your `AppServiceProvider`.

```php
namespace App\Providers;

use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;
use Laragear\Package\Models\Model;

class AppServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    public function register(): void
    {
        Model::$useTable = 'my_custom_table';
    }
}
```

### Configuring the model

All customizable models can be configured with additional fillable, guarded, hidden, visible and appended attributes. These are _merged_ with the original configuration of the model itself, so changes are not destructive.

Customize the model using the available static properties:

- `$useCasts`: The casts attributes to merge.
- `$useFillable`: The fillable attributes to merge.
- `$useGuarded`: The guarded attributes to merge.
- `$useHidden`: The hidden attributes to merge.
- `$useVisible`: The visible attributes to merge.
- `$useAppends`: The appends attributes to merge.

```php
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Casts\AsEncryptedCollection;
use Vendor\Package\Models\Car;

class AppServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    public function register(): void
    {
        Car::$useCasts = [
            'is_cool' => 'boolean',
            'colors' => AsEncryptedCollection::class,
        ];
        
        Car::$useHidden = ['colors'];
    }
}
```
