Membuat Helper Sendiri di Laravel
Laravel telah menyediakan beragam helper php function yang bersifat global. Function ini banyak digunakan oleh framework itu sendiri. Namun, anda bebas menggunakannya dalam aplikasi anda jika anda merasa nyaman. Jadi, pada dasarnya, helpers yang disediakan oleh Laravel dapat anda gunakan darimanapun dalam aplikasi anda, jika helpers yang sesuai kebutuhan anda tidak tersedia, maka anda dibolehkan untuk membuat helper sendiri.
Meskipun core Laravel telah menyediakan berbagai macam helper, selalu ada kemungkinan bagi anda untuk membuat helpers
anda sendiri dan mengembangkannya sesuai dengan yang anda butuhkan,
sehingga anda tidak perlu mengulang kode yang sama berulang kali di
berbagai tempat. Hal ini akan menyebabkan proses maintenance menjadi lebih mudah untuk dilakukan. Melalui artikel ini, kita akan belajar membuat helpers sendiri.

Membuat Custom Helper
Seperti yang telah kita bahas sebelumnya bahwa Laravel telah menyediakan helpers yang dapat digunakan sesuai kebutuhan kita, helpers tersebut dibagi menjadi beberapa kategori, diantaranya: Arrays, Paths, Strings, URLs, Miscellaneous. Adapun helpers secara rinci dapat anda cek :
Maka terlepas dari helpers yang telah disediakan berdasarkan kegunaannya masing-masing, pada kesempatan kali ini kita akan mencoba untuk membuat custom helper yang dapat digunakan secara global pada aplikasi anda.
Agar mudah dimengerti, maka kita akan membuat helper sederhana dimana kita akan mengambil userid dan mengembalikan username sebagai response.
Tampaknya terlalu sederhana, akan tetapi cukup untuk memahami konsepnya
sehingga anda dapat mengembangkannya lebih lanjut sesuai kebutuhan
anda.
Saya berasumsi anda telah memiliki users table pada database anda dan setidaknya memiliki dua field: userid dan username. Membuat file helpers
Sebenarnya anda dapat menempatkan file helper yang anda miliki dimanapun pada aplikasi anda. Pada artikel kali ini kita akan bersepakat untuk menempatkannya pada direktori app. Buat folder Helpers dan didalam folder Helpers, buat file User.php kemudian tambahkan potongan code dibawah ini:
<?php
namespace App\Helpers;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB;
class User {
public static function get_username($user_id) {
$user = DB::table('users')->where('userid', $user_id)->first();
return (isset($user->username) ? $user->username : '');
}
}
php artisan make:provider UserServiceProvider
app/Providers/UserServiceProvider.php maka anda akan mendapatkan dua buah method. Pada method register, tambahkan potongan code berikut:public function register()
{
require_once app_path() . '/Helpers/User.php';
}
config/app.php dan tambahkan potongan code berikut pada bagian providers:App\Providers\UserServiceProvider::class,
aliases:'UserHelp' => App\Helpers\User::class,
UserHelp. Adapun code lengkap dari config/app.php menjadi: <?php
return [

Menggunakan Custom Helper
Helper yang kita inginkan telah berhasil dibuat, langkah selanjutnya adalah kita mencoba menggunakan helper ini. Agar tampak mudah dan dapat dipahami maka kita akan menggunakan helper ini secara langsung menggunakan closure method. Buka file
routes/web.php kemudian tambahkan potongan code berikut:Route::get('/helper-user', function () {
return UserHelp::get_username(1);
});
Maka ketika anda mengakses url
/helper-user, anda akan mendapatkan username dengan userid = 1. Anda dapat menggunakan custom helper darimanapun anda inginkan, seperti: dari controller atau views.
