This package was created to encrypt and decrypt values of Eloquent model attributes.

• Encrypt, decrypt values stored in database fields
• Using standard Laravel's Crypt service
• Easy configuration

• Laravel: 6.0 and up
• PHP: 7.1 and newer

Encrypted values are stored as plain text so in most cases takes up more spaces then unencrypted one. Recommendation is to alter table column to TEXT type. If you want use VARCHAR or CHAR column type still you need to check if encrypted value fit.

Do not worry if you have current data in your database not encrypted and added column to $encryptable - they will return as is.
On save values will be encrypted and everything will work fine.

Via Composer command line:

$ composer require rahulshibu/laravel-model-encrypter

1. Use the LaravelModelEncrypter\Traits\DBEncryptor trait in any Eloquent model that you wish to use encryption
2. Define a protected $encryptable array containing a list of the encrypted attributes.
3. Define the encryption key in .env file. Default encrption key will be empty.

For example:

Model

    
    use LaravelModelEncrypter\Traits\DBEncryptor;

    class Client extends Eloquent {
        use DBEncryptor;
       
        /** @var array The attributes that should be encrypted/decrypted */
        protected $encryptable = [
            'id_number', 
            'email',
        ];
    }

ENV

ENCRYPT_KEY=abcd1234

3. You can use Laravel's original $casts to cast decrypted values
