Installation

Require this package with Composer

composer require geccomedia/weclapp

Add the variables to your .env:

WECLAPP_BASE_URL=https://your-subdomain.weclapp.com/webapp/api/v1/
WECLAPP_API_KEY=your-key

Usage

Use existing models from the Geccomedia\Weclapp\Models namespace.

Most Eloquent methods are implemented within the limitations of the web API.

<?php

use Geccomedia\Weclapp\Models\Customer;

$customer = Customer::where('company', 'Your Company Name')
    ->firstOrFail();

Available Models

Over 150 models are provided, covering all queryable Weclapp API endpoints — including SalesOrder, Customer, Article, Shipment, PurchaseOrder, Invoice, Ticket, and many more. Every model has full @property annotations for IDE autocompletion.

Custom Models

The API route is derived automatically from the class name using lcfirst(ClassName), so SalesOrder maps to salesOrder, Article maps to article, etc. You only need to declare $table when your class name does not match the API route:

<?php namespace Your\Custom\Namespace;

use Geccomedia\Weclapp\Model;

class MyOrder extends Model
{
    /**
     * Override only when the class name doesn't match the API route.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $table = 'salesOrder';
}

Mass Assignments

If you want to do mass assignment please use unguard and reguard:

$customer = new \Geccomedia\Weclapp\Models\Customer();
\Geccomedia\Weclapp\Models\Customer::unguard();
$customer->fill(['partyType' => 'ORGANIZATION']);
\Geccomedia\Weclapp\Models\Customer::reguard();

Relations

Models declare belongsTo and hasMany relationships using Weclapp's camelCase foreign key convention (e.g. customerId, not customer_id).

Eager loading (recommended — single batched request)

Use with() to load related models in one extra request instead of one per record:

// 2 HTTP requests total: one for orders, one batched party lookup
$orders = SalesOrder::with('customer')->get();

foreach ($orders as $order) {
    echo $order->customer->company;
}

Lazy loading (N+1)

Without with(), each relation access fires its own HTTP request:

$orders = SalesOrder::get();         // 1 request

foreach ($orders as $order) {
    echo $order->customer->company;  // 1 request per order
}

Inverse relations (hasMany)

Common inverse relations are defined, so you can traverse from either side:

$customer = Customer::find('1');

$customer->salesOrders()->get();   // GET /salesOrder?customerId-eq=1
$customer->shipments()->get();     // GET /shipment?customerId-eq=1
$customer->quotations()->get();    // GET /quotation?customerId-eq=1
$customer->salesInvoices()->get(); // GET /salesInvoice?customerId-eq=1

$warehouse->warehouseStock()->get();     // GET /warehouseStock?warehouseId-eq=1
$salesOrder->shipments()->get();         // GET /shipment?salesOrderId-eq=1
$salesOrder->salesInvoices()->get();     // GET /salesInvoice?salesOrderId-eq=1
$article->articlePrices()->get();        // GET /articlePrice?articleId-eq=1
$supplier->purchaseOrders()->get();      // GET /purchaseOrder?supplierId-eq=1

Additional Properties

Weclapp can return extra computed fields that are not included by default. Request them with withProperties():

// Includes the orderItems and tags fields in the response
$orders = SalesOrder::withProperties('orderItems', 'tags')->get();
// → GET /salesOrder?additionalProperties=orderItems,tags

This can be combined with select() and other query methods:

SalesOrder::select('id', 'orderNumber')
    ->withProperties('orderItems')
    ->where('status', 'ORDER_ENTRY_IN_PROGRESS')
    ->get();

Custom Actions

Weclapp exposes many action endpoints beyond standard CRUD. Call them via action() at the class level or callAction() on a model instance.

Collection-level actions

// POST /salesOrder/defaultValuesForCreate
$defaults = SalesOrder::action('defaultValuesForCreate');

// POST /tax/configureSalesTaxes  {"taxRateType": "STANDARD"}
Tax::action('configureSalesTaxes', ['taxRateType' => 'STANDARD']);

Instance-level actions

$order = SalesOrder::find('123');

// POST /salesOrder/id/123/createShipment
$order->newQuery()->callAction('createShipment');

// POST /salesOrder/id/123/createSalesInvoice  {"invoiceDate": 1234567890000}
$order->newQuery()->callAction('createSalesInvoice', ['invoiceDate' => 1234567890000]);

// POST /quotation/id/456/accept
$quotation->newQuery()->callAction('accept');

All actions return the decoded JSON response body as an array, or null if the response has no body.

Read-only Models

Some Weclapp endpoints are read-only (no create or delete). Attempting to save() a new instance or delete() an existing one on these models will throw a NotSupportedException immediately, without making an HTTP request.

Mutation restrictions are expressed via three composable traits:

Trait	Blocks	Swagger condition
NoCreate	save() on new instances	No POST /resource endpoint
NoUpdate	save() on existing instances	No PUT /resource/id/{id} endpoint
NoDelete	delete()	No DELETE /resource/id/{id} endpoint

IsReadOnly (use NoCreate, NoUpdate, NoDelete) and IsUpdatableOnly (use NoCreate, NoDelete) are convenience aliases for common combinations.

Embedded Sub-Objects

Weclapp embeds related data directly in API responses rather than using separate endpoints. These are automatically hydrated into typed SubModel value objects on read.

$order = SalesOrder::find('123');

// Object-style access (new)
echo $order->orderItems[0]->articleId;
echo $order->recordAddress->city;

// Array-style access (still works — SubModel implements ArrayAccess)
echo $order->orderItems[0]['articleId'];

toArray() and toJson() always return plain nested arrays, so serialisation and API writes are unaffected.

Sub Entities

Weclapp treats some models as sub-entities that belong to a parent. For these, supply the parent entity with whereEntity($name, $id):

$comments = Comment::whereEntity('customer', 123)->orderBy('id')->get();

Without the call to whereEntity the API will return an error. See #22 for more information.

Logging

To inspect the HTTP requests being made, enable the connection query log:

use Geccomedia\Weclapp\Connection;

app(Connection::class)->enableQueryLog();

\Geccomedia\Weclapp\Models\Customer::create(['name' => 'Test']);

app(Connection::class)->getQueryLog();

Party-type Models

Weclapp stores customers, suppliers, leads, and contacts all as records in the single /party endpoint, differentiated by boolean role flags and a leadStatus field. The four convenience model classes each apply a global query scope so they automatically filter to the right subset:

Class	Route	Filter applied
Customer	/party	customer = true
Supplier	/party	supplier = true
Lead	/party	leadStatus is set and not CONVERTED
Contact	/party	partyType = PERSON

The scopes are transparent — any extra where() clauses stack alongside them:

// GET /party?customer-eq=true&company-eq=Acme&pageSize=100
$customers = Customer::where('company', 'Acme')->get();

// GET /party?supplier-eq=true&pageSize=100
$suppliers = Supplier::all();

// GET /party?leadStatus-notnull=&leadStatus-ne=CONVERTED&pageSize=100
$leads = Lead::all();

// GET /party?partyType-eq=PERSON&pageSize=100
$contacts = Contact::all();

A single weclapp party can carry multiple roles simultaneously (e.g. customer = true and supplier = true). Party::all() returns every party record unfiltered when you need to query across roles.

leadStatus values

Value	Meaning
NEW	Just entered the funnel
PREQUALIFIED	Initial screening done
QUALIFIED	Sales-ready
CONVERTED	Graduated to a customer — excluded from Lead, appears under Customer
DISQUALIFIED	Rejected from funnel

Boolean Filters

PHP true and false values passed to where() or whereIn() are automatically serialised to the strings "true" and "false" that the weclapp API expects:

// GET /party?customer-eq=true&...
Customer::where('customer', true)->get();

// GET /party?customerBlocked-eq=false&...
Customer::where('customerBlocked', false)->get();

// GET /article?active-in=["true","false"]&...
Article::whereIn('active', [true, false])->get();

System & Job Utility APIs

Weclapp exposes a handful of endpoints under /system and /job that have no CRUD model. Two dedicated classes wrap these as typed methods.

SystemApi

use Geccomedia\Weclapp\SystemApi;

$api = app(SystemApi::class);

// GET /system/permissions → string[]
// Returns the permission slugs granted to the current API key.
$permissions = $api->permissions();
// e.g. ['party:read', 'salesOrder:read', 'salesOrder:write', ...]

// GET /system/licenses → array of {name: string, permissions: string[]}
// Returns the active licence modules and their included permissions.
$licenses = $api->licenses();
// e.g. [['name' => 'SALES', 'permissions' => ['salesOrder:read', ...]], ...]

// GET /system/demoTestSystemInfo
// Returns whether a demo instance can be created from this tenant.
$info = $api->demoTestSystemInfo();
// e.g. ['createPossible' => true, 'creationInProgress' => false, ...]

// POST /system/createDemoTestSystem
// Creates a demo copy of this tenant. Preset: 'NONE', 'PROD_SYSTEM', or 'TEMPLATE_SYSTEM'.
$api->createDemoTestSystem('My Test System', 'PROD_SYSTEM');
$api->createDemoTestSystem('My Test System', 'PROD_SYSTEM', allUsers: true);

JobApi

Weclapp runs long-running background jobs asynchronously. Use JobApi to poll or cancel them by type.

use Geccomedia\Weclapp\JobApi;

$api = app(JobApi::class);

// GET /job/status?type=INVENTORY_BOOKING
// Returns the current status and progress of the named background job.
$status = $api->status('INVENTORY_BOOKING');
// e.g. ['type' => 'INVENTORY_BOOKING', 'status' => 'EXECUTING', 'progress' => ['current' => 42, 'total' => 100]]

// GET /job/abort?type=INVENTORY_BOOKING
// Requests cancellation of a running job.
$result = $api->abort('INVENTORY_BOOKING');

Valid type values are the SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE job names from the Weclapp API spec (e.g. INVENTORY_BOOKING, MATERIAL_PLANNING_RUN, MASS_SHIPMENT_CREATION, ACCOUNTING_EXPORT, and many more).
