how can we install composer require spatie/laravel-searchable in 5.7 version of laravel

I am setting up search in my project.which includes more than one model to search.Firstly, I tried using scout and scout extended but it does not give much flexibility with where clause.so I thought to have a look to composer require spatie/laravel-searchable but it seems its dependency is laravel 5.8. but my laravel version is 5.7.28.Please provide me the solution.

How should I proceed with the same?

I tried using scout and scout extended but it does not give much flexibility with where clause

  $channels = Channel::where('created_at', '>', now()->subDays(7))->get();
       return view('search.index')->with(compact('channels'));

this works perfectly as this is simple query but if I try the same with the scout and algolia(search request)

$channels = Channel::search($request->q)->where('created_at', '>', now()- 
          >subDays(7))->get();

it does not give any result.

when I tried installing composer require spatie/laravel-searchable

I got this error

Problem 1

  • Can only install one of: laravel/framework[5.8.x-dev, v5.7.28].
  • Can only install one of: laravel/framework[5.8.x-dev, v5.7.28].
  • spatie/laravel-searchable 1.3.0 requires laravel/framework ~5.8.0 -> satisfiable by laravel/framework[5.8.x-dev].
  • Installation request for spatie/laravel-searchable ^1.3 -> satisfiable by spatie/laravel-searchable[1.3.0].
  • Installation request for laravel/framework (locked at v5.7.28, required as 5.7.*) -> satisfiable by laravel/framework[v5.7.28].
Solution

  • Laravel 5.7 support droped with v1.3.0 so you need to install the older version.

    Changelog: https://github.com/spatie/laravel-searchable/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md

    You can install the older version using command:

    composer require spatie/laravel-searchable:1.2.3

    Or add this version into your composer.json file and run composer update
