Auditable Schema Blueprint
The package provides Laravel Schema Blueprint macros for easily adding auditable fields to your migrations.
Adding Auditable Fields
Use the auditable() macro to add created_by and updated_by columns:
Schema::create('posts', function (Blueprint $table) { $table->id(); $table->string('title'); $table->text('content'); $table->auditable(); $table->timestamps();});
This creates:
created_by-unsignedBigInteger, nullable, indexedupdated_by-unsignedBigInteger, nullable, indexed
Adding Auditable Fields with Soft Deletes
Use the auditableWithDeletes() macro to add created_by, updated_by, and deleted_by columns:
Schema::create('posts', function (Blueprint $table) { $table->id(); $table->string('title'); $table->text('content'); $table->auditableWithDeletes(); $table->timestamps(); $table->softDeletes();});
This creates:
created_by-unsignedBigInteger, nullable, indexedupdated_by-unsignedBigInteger, nullable, indexeddeleted_by-unsignedBigInteger, nullable, indexed
Dropping Auditable Fields
Use the dropAuditable() macro to remove created_by and updated_by columns:
Schema::table('posts', function (Blueprint $table) { $table->dropAuditable();});
Dropping Auditable Fields with Deletes
Use the dropAuditableWithDeletes() macro to remove created_by, updated_by, and deleted_by columns:
Schema::table('posts', function (Blueprint $table) { $table->dropAuditableWithDeletes();});
