How to Generate Slug in Laravel with Livewire Package.

So let's start following example.

Step 1: Download Laravel

Let us begin the tutorial by installing a new laravel application. if you have already created the project, then skip following step.

composer create-project laravel/laravel example-app
Step 2: Database Configuration

Insert Database Details in ENV

.env
DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=database_name
DB_USERNAME=database_user_name
DB_PASSWORD=database_password
Step 3: Create Livewire Library

Its easy to install the livewire package into the laravel; you have to open the terminal, type command, and execute to begin the installation process.

composer require livewire/livewire
Step 4 : Create Eloquent Sluggable Package

In the further step, you have to install the eloquent sluggable package, and this library will help you generate slug in laravel.

Make sure to run the following command to install the plugin.

composer require cviebrock/eloquent-sluggable
Step 5: Publish Sluggable Config File

Now laravel slug package has been installed; now, you have to register this package for starting the creation of slugs as per the laravel eloquent models.

Let us execute the command to publish the configuration file in laravel.

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Cviebrock\EloquentSluggable\ServiceProvider"
Step 6: Create Model and Migrations

Let us create a migration and model files; theoretically, these files help in creating the table into the database.

Run the below command to generate a migration and model simultaneously.

php artisan make:model Blog -m

Add the values in the newly generated models file.

app/Models/Blog.php
<?php

namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

use Cviebrock\EloquentSluggable\Sluggable;

class Blog extends Model
{
    use HasFactory,Sluggable;

    /**
     * The attributes that are mass assignable.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $fillable = [
        'blog_title',
        'slug',
    ];

    /**
     * Write code on Method
     *
     * @return response()
     */
    public function sluggable(): array
    {
        return [
            'slug' => [
                'source' => 'blog_title'
            ]
        ];
    }
}

Open database/migrations/create_blogs_table.php and insert the table properties within the migration file.

database/migrations/create_blogs_table.php
<?php

use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;

return new class extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('blogs', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->id();
            $table->string('blog_title');
            $table->string('slug');            
            $table->timestamps();
        });
    }

    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        Schema::dropIfExists('blogs');
    }
}

Now, go to console, type the recommended command to run the migration.

php artisan migrate
Step 7: Create Route

Open the routes/web.php in this file you need to define the route.

routes/web.php
<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Web Routes
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Here is where you can register web routes for your application. These
| routes are loaded by the RouteServiceProvider within a group which
| contains the "web" middleware group. Now create something great!
|
*/

Route::view('/generate-slug', 'welcome');
Step 8: Create Livewire Component

Next, you have to execute the following command to generate the livewire blog components.

php artisan make:livewire Blogs

Eventually, the suggested command created two files on the following path:

app/Http/Livewire/Blogs.php
resources/views/livewire/blogs.blade.php
app/Http/Livewire/Blogs.php file
<?php

namespace App\Http\Livewire;

use Livewire\Component;
use App\Models\Blog;
use \Cviebrock\EloquentSluggable\Services\SlugService;

class Blogs extends Component
{
    public $blog_title;
    public $slug;

    /**
     * Write code on Method
     *
     * @return response()
     */
    public function render()
    {
        $blogs = Blog::latest()->take(7)->get();
        return view('livewire.blogs', compact('blogs'));
    }

    /**
     * Write code on Method
     *
     * @return response()
     */
    public function generateSlug()
    {
        $this->slug = SlugService::createSlug(Blog::class, 'slug', $this->blog_title);
    }

    /**
     * Write code on Method
     *
     * @return response()
     */
    public function store()
    {
        Blog::create([
            'blog_title' => $this->blog_title,
            'slug'  => $this->slug
        ]);
    }    
}
resources/views/livewire/blogs.php
<div>
    <form wire:submit.prevent="store">
        <div class="form-group">
            <label for="blog_title" class="mb-2"><strong>Blog Title</strong></label>
            <div class="col-md-12 mb-3">
                <input wire:model="blog_title" type="text" class="form-control @error('blog_title') is-invalid @enderror" autofocus>

                @error('blog_title')
                <span class="invalid-feedback">
                    <strong>{{ $message }}</strong>
                </span>
                @enderror

            </div>
        </div>

        <div class="col-md-12">
            <div class="d-grid">
                <button type="submit" class="btn btn-dark">
                    Create Blog
                </button>
            </div>
        </div>
    </form>
    <table class="table mt-5">
        <thead>
            <tr>
                <th>Blog Title</th>
                <th>Slug</th>
            </tr>
        </thead>
        <tbody>
            @foreach ($blogs as $blog)
            <tr>
                <td>{{ $blog->blog_title }}</td>
                <td>{{ $blog->slug }}</td>
            </tr>
            @endforeach
        </tbody>
    </table>
</div>
Step 9: Create Blade File

In the last step, make sure to head over to resources/views/livewire/ folder, you have to create the welcome.blade.php file in this directory and after that insert all the given below code in the suggested file:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="{{ str_replace('_', '-', app()->getLocale()) }}">

    <title>Implement Slug in Laravel Livewire Example - Mywebtuts.com</title>

        <div class="alert alert-primay">
            {{ session('message') }}
        </div>
        @endif
