Is there a package that implements API data access like Eloquent?
Example:
We have two systems, A and B. System A has a table "posts" and has an API resource implementation. Is there a package that implements this integration to be used in B to access this "posts" API like Eloquent Model?
In B, want to write the access to A like:
Post::where('title', 'Post Title')->where('published_at', '2022-02-03')->get();

No. Eloquent is an ORM. It maps database rows to objects.

Isn't it possible that a package implements a Model class that translates this:
Post::where('title', 'Post Title')->where('published_at', '2022-02-03')->get();
Into a API GET request to "https://systemA.com/posts?title=Post Title&publised_at=2022-02-03"
?

No. Because there’s no standard of how an API would implement filters, and there’s just tons of concepts that just don’t translate from database querying to APIs and vice versa.
