Define regex constraints to your Laravel routes easy.

Gregori Piñeres — Thu, 29 Oct 2020 13:22:35 +0000

In the next version 8.12.x of laravel a method will be added that will save you several lines of code if you are defining restrictions on your routes.

Previously, in most projects that implemented this feature, you would see code like the following.

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

Route::get('articles/{article}', 'ArticleController@show')
  ->where(['article' => '[0-9]+']);

With this syntax we would match with a route similar to the following.

URL	HTTP Status Code
`https://example.com/articles/123456`	200
`https://example.com/articles/abcdfg`	404

This is fine, but some users may not understand this syntax at first glance. Therefore, now we will have a series of explicit methods that will allow the developer to save code and obtain the same result without writing "complex" expressions.

New route regex registration methods

Method	Regex
whereNumber	`[0-9]+`
whereAlpha	`[a-zA-Z]+`
whereUuid	`[0-9a-f]{8}-[0-9a-f]{4}-[0-9a-f]{4}-[0-9a-f]{4}-[0-9a-f]{12}`

Finally you can use these methods in the definition of the routes as follows.

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

Route::get('articles/{article}', 'ArticleController@show')
  ->whereNumber('article');

Route::get('user/{user}', 'UserController@show')
  ->whereUuid('user');

Route::get('book/{author}/{title}', 'BookController@show')
  ->whereString(['author', 'title']);

As you know this feature will be available from version 8.12.0 of the framework, I hope it will be useful for you.

How generate a Laravel APP_KEY with OpenSSL

Gregori Piñeres — Mon, 09 Mar 2020 15:23:31 +0000

Hello everyone, today I will show you a little trick that I use frequently in my scripts to create a Laravel application key commonly generated with artisan.

It's simple, with the help of the openssl package we can generate a random string of 32 characters and at the same time, it can be encoded in base64.

This will generate a fully valid laravel application key that you can use in your .env configuration file.

echo "base64:$(openssl rand -base64 32)"

Thanks for reading this little tip, don't forget to share it on your social networks or with your development team.
