Applying Default Filters with Eloquent Global Scopes

// --- 1. Define the Global Scope Class ---
// app/Scopes/ActiveUserScope.php
namespace App\Scopes;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Builder;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Scope;

class ActiveUserScope implements Scope
{
    /**
     * Apply the scope to a given Eloquent query builder.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Builder  $builder
     * @param  \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model  $model
     * @return void
     */
    public function apply(Builder $builder, Model $model)
    {
        $builder->where('is_active', true);
    }
}

// --- 2. Apply the Global Scope to a Model ---
// app/Models/User.php
namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use App\Scopes\ActiveUserScope;

class User extends Model
{
    /**
     * The "booted" method of the model.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    protected static function boot()
    {
        parent::boot();

        static::addGlobalScope(new ActiveUserScope);
        // You can also add anonymous global scopes:
        // static::addGlobalScope('is_verified', function (Builder $builder) {
        //     $builder->where('email_verified_at', '!=', null);
        // });
    }
}

// --- 3. Querying with and without the Global Scope ---

// This will automatically include 'where is_active = 1'
$activeUsers = User::all();

// To remove a named global scope for a particular query
$allUsersIncludingInactive = User::withoutGlobalScope(ActiveUserScope::class)->get();

// To remove all global scopes for a particular query
$allUsersIgnoringScopes = User::withoutGlobalScopes()->get();

// If using an anonymous global scope, remove by its given name
// $allUsersNotVerified = User::withoutGlobalScope('is_verified')->get();
