How to always use withTrashed() for model Binding - laravel

Question

In my app, I use soft delete on a lot of object, but I still want to access them in my app, just showing a special message that this item has been deleted and give the opportunity to restore it.
Currently I have to do this for all my route parametters in my RouteServiceProvider:
/**
* Define your route model bindings, pattern filters, etc.
*
* #return void
*/
public function boot()
{
parent::boot();
Route::bind('user', function ($value) {
return User::withTrashed()->find($value);
});
Route::bind('post', function ($value) {
return Post::withTrashed()->find($value);
});
[...]
}
Is there a quicker and better way to add the trashed Object to the model binding ?

Answer 1

Jerodev's answer didn't work for me. The SoftDeletingScope continued to filter out the deleted items. So I just overrode that scope and the SoftDeletes trait:
SoftDeletingWithDeletesScope.php:
namespace App\Models\Scopes;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Builder;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\SoftDeletingScope;
class SoftDeletingWithDeletesScope extends SoftDeletingScope
{
public function apply(Builder $builder, Model $model)
{
}
}
SoftDeletesWithDeleted.php:
namespace App\Models\Traits;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\SoftDeletes;
use App\Models\Scopes\SoftDeletingWithDeletesScope;
trait SoftDeletesWithDeleted
{
use SoftDeletes;
public static function bootSoftDeletes()
{
static::addGlobalScope(new SoftDeletingWithDeletesScope);
}
}
This effectively just removes the filter while still allowing me to use all the rest of the SoftDeletingScope extensions.
Then in my model I replaced the SoftDeletes trait with my new SoftDeletesWithDeleted trait:
use App\Models\Traits\SoftDeletesWithDeleted;
class MyModel extends Model
{
use SoftDeletesWithDeleted;

For Laravel 5.6 to 7
You can follow this doc https://laravel.com/docs/5.6/scout#soft-deleting. And set the soft_delete option of the config/scout.php configuration file to true.
'soft_delete' => true,
For Laravel 8+
You can follow this doc https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/routing#implicit-soft-deleted-models. And append ->withTrashed() to the route that should accept trashed models:
Ex:
Route::get('/users/{user}', function (User $user) {
return $user->email;
})->withTrashed();

You can add a Global Scope to the models that have to be visible even when trashed.
For example:
class WithTrashedScope implements Scope
{
public function apply(Builder $builder, Model $model)
{
$builder->withTrashed();
}
}
class User extends Model
{
protected static function boot()
{
parent::boot();
static::addGlobalScope(new WithTrashedScope);
}
}
Update:
If you don't want to show the deleted objects you can still manually add ->whereNull('deleted_at') to your query.
