Use Cockpit and Laravel Eloquent, together at last. Uses jenssegers/laravel-mongodb.

MongoDB only at the moment

composer require jenssegers/mongodb
composer require gazsp/eloquent-cockpit

Make sure Facades are enabled in app.php, and that the jenssegers/laravel-mongodb service provider is loaded:

$app->withFacades();
// ...
$app->register('Jenssegers\Mongodb\MongodbServiceProvider');

TBC (probably no different from Lumen)

If you have a collection called 'Events' in Cockpit, the model in Laravel or Lumen would be:

<?php namespace App\Repo\Collections;

    use Gazsp\EloquentCockpit\CockpitCollection;

    class Events extends CockpitCollection {
       protected $cockpitSlug = 'events';
    }

You can then use the model as normal:

$events = Events::all();
// etc...
