Countify

Laravel 5 package to count the words in a textarea.

Instalation

Require it in your composer.json file

"thunder/countify": "dev-master"

Add the service provider to the service providers array in config > app.php

'thunder\Countify\CountifyServiceProvider',

Add an alisas to the aliasses array in config > app.php

'Countify'  => 'thunder\Countify\Facades\Countify',

PSR4 autoload it

"thunder\\Countify\\": "vendor/thunder/Countify/src/"

Do a composer update

Publish the resources through this command

php artisan vendor:publish

Usages

Include the published resources in your view. Jquery is required.

<script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.2.min.js"></script>
<script src="js/Countify.js"></script>

All that rests now is the textarea with an id of count, a span or div with an idea of words. And an hidden field with your laravel token.

<textarea id="count"></textarea>
<input id="_token" type="hidden" name="_token" value="{{ csrf_token() }}" />
<p>
    Aantal woorden: <span id="words"></span>
</p>

You're good to go know, enjoy it.
