+
+# Laravel Model Settings
+
+Add settings feature to Eloquent models in Laravel 5.
+
+
+## Background
+
+This has been developed to simplify adding "settings" feature to any eloquent model on your laravel project. Settings WILL be stored in `json` format, which has it's pros and cons!
+
+## Installation
+To install the package via Composer:
+
+```shell
+$ composer require yarob/laravel-model-settings
+```
+Then, update `config/app.php` by adding an entry for the service provider.
+
+```php
+'providers' => [
+    // ...
+    Yarob\LaravelModelSettings\ServiceProvider::class,
+];
+```
+Finally, via terminal, publish the default configuration file:
+
+```shell
+php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Yarob\LaravelModelSettings\ServiceProvider"
+```
+## Updating your Eloquent Models
+
+Your models should use the `hasSettings` trait.
+You must also add `settings` to your `fillable` array, and then cast `settings` to `json` as shown in the example below
+
+```php
+use Yarob\LaravelModelSettings\HasSettings;
+
+class User extends Model
+{
+    use hasSettings;
+    
+    /**
+     * The attributes that are mass assignable.
+     *
+     * @var array
+     */
+    protected $fillable = [
+        'name', 'email', 'settings'
+    ];
+    
+    
+    /**
+     * The attributes that should be casted.
+     *
+     * @var array
+     */
+    protected $casts = [
+        'settings' =>'json',
+    ];
+
+}
+```
+
+Your model and database must have column named `settings` in the database to store the settings values. You can add this manually via a migration on the intended model. The column should be text and big enough to store all settings after json encoded.
+
+## Usage
+
+Better demonstrated in example
+
+```php
+$user = $user = App\User::first();
+
+$user->settings()->save(array(
+		'address' => 'London',
+		'phone_number' => '0123456789'
+	    ));
+	    
+dd($user->settings);
+```
+## Configuration
+
+Configuration was made to be as flexible as possible. You can add the allowed settings keys per Model basis.
+
+Global configuration can be set in the `app/config/model-settings.php` file. By default, `phone_number` and `address` settings keys have been added to `User` model. But feel free to change that.
+
+If a configuration isn't set, then the package defaults from 
+`vendor/yarob/laravel-model-settings/resources/config/model-settings.php` are used. 
+Here is an example configuration:
+
+```php
+return [
+    'User' => [
+    		'phone_number',
+    		'address',
+    	],
+];
+```
