What about a package that does the testing automatically every time the code or the test changes?

[r-brown]

@veerajongit Sounds great! Would it be possible also to enable these tests for TravisCI?

Would you guys want the ability to archive users similar to the idea of SoftDeletes?

[r-brown]

Hi @nowendwell - this might a good improvement here. Thanks! Any option to enable also complete GDPR compliant deletion and data provisioning?! ;)

[nowendwell]

I think I can spin something up. Thinking a Trait (Forgetable or GDPRPolicy or something) that would call a variable on the model to find the relationships. The trait would have download() and permanentDelete() methods that do the respective tasks.

I'm thinking

protected $gdpr_relations = [
    'providers',
    'protectionValidation',
    'protectionShopTokens'
];

That way you could call

// Route
Route::delete('/user/{user}', 'UserController@permanentDelete');

// User Controller
public function permanentDelete(User $user)
{
    $user->permanentDelete();

    return back();
}

// GDPRPolicy Trait
public function permanentDelete()
{
    foreach($this->gdpr_relations as $relation) {
        $relation->forceDelete();
    }

    return true;
}

As for the data provisioning (downloading data right?) do you want to pull in an Excel library and make it fancy or just stick with an fputcsv kinda thing?

I'm thinking if we're just going the fputcsv route something like this

users
id	name	pass
1	Ben	$@sdisdfkj
social_accounts
id	user_id	provider	provider_id	token
1	1	fb	24351	$NWED(NCAIU3

Let me know your thoughts.

Hi @nowendwell the suggestion looks really good - let's do it. Also the export as CVS is ways better - it should be simple.
