Likable Helper for Eloquent models

Just use Likeable trait in your model:

namespace App;
 
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use MiragePresent\Likeable\Likeable;
 
class Photo extends Model {
 
    use Likeable;

/** @var \App\Photo $photo */
$photo = Photo::find(1); 
 
// Add like to the photo
$photo->like();
 
var_dump($photo->is_liked); \\ true, 1
 
echo $photo->count_likes. ' user(s) liked this photo';
echo $photo->likedBy->ipmlode('name', ',') . ' liked this photo';
