Installation

Via Composer

Laravel version <= 10

$ composer require laraveldaily/laravel-invoices:^3.0

Laravel version <= 8

$ composer require laraveldaily/laravel-invoices:^2.0

Laravel version <= 7

$ composer require laraveldaily/laravel-invoices:^1.3

After installing Laravel Invoices, publish its assets, views, translations and config using the invoices:install Artisan command:

$ php artisan invoices:install

Updates

Since it is evolving fast you might want to have latest template after update using Artisan command:

$ php artisan invoices:update

It will give a warning if you really want to override default resources

Or alternatively it can be done separately.

$ php artisan vendor:publish --tag=invoices.views --force

$ php artisan vendor:publish --tag=invoices.translations --force

For Laravel version < 5.5

If you don't use auto-discovery, add the ServiceProvider to the providers array in config/app.php

LaravelDaily\Invoices\InvoiceServiceProvider::class,

If you want to use the facade to generate invoices, add this to your facades in config/app.php

'Invoice' => LaravelDaily\Invoices\Facades\Invoice::class

Basic Usage

RandomController.php

use LaravelDaily\Invoices\Invoice;
use LaravelDaily\Invoices\Classes\Buyer;
use LaravelDaily\Invoices\Classes\InvoiceItem;

<...>

        $customer = new Buyer([
            'name'          => 'John Doe',
            'custom_fields' => [
                'email' => '[email protected]',
            ],
        ]);

        $item = (new InvoiceItem())->title('Service 1')->pricePerUnit(2);

        $invoice = Invoice::make()
            ->buyer($customer)
            ->discountByPercent(10)
            ->taxRate(15)
            ->shipping(1.99)
            ->addItem($item);

        return $invoice->stream();

            ->save('public');

        $link = $invoice->url();
        // Then send email to party with link

        // And return invoice itself to browser or have a different view
        return $invoice->stream();

Alternatives using facade

Optionally you can use a facade to make new party or item

use Invoice;

$customer = Invoice::makeParty([
    'name' => 'John Doe',
]);

$item = Invoice::makeItem('Your service or product title')->pricePerUnit(9.99);

return Invoice::make()->buyer($customer)->addItem($item)->stream();

Templates

After publishing assets you can modify or make your own template for invoices.

Templates are stored in the resources/views/vendor/invoices/templates directory. There you will find default.blade.php template which is used by default.

You can specify which template to use by calling template method on Invoice object.

For example if you have resources/views/vendor/invoices/templates/my_company.blade.php it should look like this:

Invoice::make('receipt')->template('my_company');

Too see how things work in a template you can view default.blade.php as an example.
