How To Create And Use Custom Facade In Laravel

Laravel custom Facades provide a static interface to a class that gives access to an object from the service container, let’s look at Laravel’s Custom Facades. So we can call our function with declaring it static. Cause Facades provide a static interface to a class.

In this tutorial i am going to discuss step by step about laravel custom facades and also we will see how can we use it in our laravel application.

Sometimes we are use repeat code and repeatedly use function at that time we can create custom facade for our project, that way you can create functions and use it

In this post will create a custom facade in Laravel by following below few short steps. So let;s start our laravel 6 custom facades tutorial.

Step 1: Create Check.php Class

In Following step, first you should create "Repositories" directory in app folder and create file Check.php. Now copy the following code in your Check.php file.

app/Repositories/Check.php

namespace App\Repositories;

class Check
{
    public function test()
    {
        dd("Hello Artisan");
    }
}

Step 2: Create Our Own ServiceProvider

In this step you should create service provider for bind class, so fire your terminal or cmd this following command:

php artisan make:provider CustomFacadesProvider

Ok, now you can find new file CustomFacadesProvider.php in your providers(app/Providers) directory and paste this following code.

app/Providers/CustomFacadesProvider.php

amespace App\Providers;

use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;

class CustomFacadesProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
   
    public function register()
    {  
        app()->bind('check', function(){  //Keep in mind this "check" must be return from facades accessor
            return new \App\Repositories\Check;
        });
    }

    public function boot()
    {

Step 3: Create Facade Class

In this step create another class in our Repositories directory called TestFacades.php In this class you have to extend "Illuminate\Support\Facades\Facade" class, copy and paste this following code.

app/Repositories/TestFacades.php

namespace App\Repositories;

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Facade;

class TestFacades extends Facade
{
    protected static function getFacadeAccessor()
    {
        return 'check';
    }
}

Step 4: Register Service Provider

Now register our provider and facades in the following path

config/app.php

// In providers array
App\Providers\CustomFacadesProvider::class,

And also add aliase for facade in this file like this way :

'Demo' => App\Repositories\TestFacades::class,

Step 5 :  Create Route

Now we can access our Check.php class method with scope resulation via Demo facades aliase. Now just check it after visiting this route url.

Route::get('demo', function(){

    Demo::test();

});
 

Afer visiting this route url, you should see the following output.
