Hello good day. I am a SAP Developer with more than 10 years of experience. And I have started with laravel 1 year ago. When I'm developing in Laravel, I don't have "logic" issues, but "best practices" issues. And I get stuck trying to find the best way to do something. Your videos are helping me a lot in that matter. I find your trainings very interesting and helpful. Thank you.
Im on same page. Constantly asking myself "is this the best way to do this?" when code already works... Another one being absolutely terrible documentation, not the never ending texts for reading like lara-docs provide but actual documentation for functions available. And yet another one being terrible code suggestion support where i know function exists but vscode or other editor just dont suggest a thing.
This is a great series, I get so much value from it. Also, I do like the idea at the end of focusing on a specific type of refactor on each episode. That sounds like a fantastic direction to go.
Another thing I noticed very briefly: Unless I missed another use of $staticpages in the homepage view that needed all staticpages, the loop around $staticpages was calling ->take(4) which means they were querying ALL static pages, but only needing 4. If that is the case, you should not be using a straight up all() and instead be using ->limit(4)->get() or ->take(4)->get() Getting all then only getting 4 from there is VERY expensive on the database. And databases in scaled applications are often not on the same server as the web server, meaning there's a larger load on the network now.

I saw that too. Also, he/she's doing select * and use only 2 property in the view.
I will say for the low cost of Sublime, I get very close to an IDE at a much lower cost. You can also argue, without every IDE function you learn and remember more.
PHPStorm is the best IDE. It has a seemingly endless number of features. They add more all the time. The more you use it the more you start using the added functionality. Sublime is good but only if you want to save money. If you really want to save money use Notepad++ :)
Quick note about the first issue, rather than having to rename the class and file name, you could just anonymise the migration class: `return new class extends Migration`. I believe in newer Laravel versions this is actually the default so my note may be a bit outdated 😅
Thank you for video. 9:36 you deleted "check.user:Admin". But all users still can register and right a way have access to admin panel!!! Should to prevent other user to have registration on system or not delete "check.user:Admin" middleware ;)
Hm, interesting, I was debating it with myself, because there are no actual routes for non-admin users, so it doesn't make sense to have admin routes/middleware without non-admin routes. But technically, I agree with you, you're right.
@@LaravelDaily during the class I’d wanted my students to learn about middleware also so keep it mind that this student switched his carrier from to programming. For only 6 months he learned everything and made this cms for only 2 months. He is good! :) I wish him successful carrier.
@@munthirzikre2401 In this case yes. But what if they create a record with `created_at` in the past, for example. If 2 bits of code return the same value doesn't mean they work the same, you are just lucky enough at the moment.
8:36 its shorter way to set this variables, you may use Constructor Property Promotion (new in php 8): public function __construct() { private $settings = Settings::findOrFail(1); }
6:48 he selects all static pages but as i understand method take he only uses 4 of them? So he should select only 4 static pages in controller, not all.
Yeah there's a big big difference between ->take(4)->get() and ->get()->take(4) and it'll be especially noticeable in production as the product grows and has more entries, and starts doing things to scale like having a database on a separate host and now all of the records have to come back as network traffic
What Laravel admin dashboard would you recommend? I've used Vuetify in the past, and I liked it. I was looking for something more lightweight, but with VueJS functionality.
0:41. I like to follow the RoR-way of naming migrations. E.g., if I want to add the field `name` to the Contact model, I will call the migration AddNameToContact. That way, there should be no collisions, and the file name very clearly describes what the migration does.
cool I didn't know about the spatie media library ! Thanks for that ! ^^ I will use it for one of my project ! I would like to know if you are able to talk also about scoping in Laravel. I've been in a company that have a senior developer, and use a loooot of scopes through the hole project. And he never uses repositories (just one or two), even so it was fully needed because of the bunch of requests he made in model. I like the repository design pattern for complexe relationships, I often use repositories (when it's necessary of course). But do you have a simple example when using scopes, when using repositories ? And by the way, could you tell also what is the difference between a trait and a helper ? ^^ Thanks for reading me, and keep going, I love to watch your videos :)
1. Scopes and repositories are kind of different things, two different topics, you can use scopes without repositories, repository pattern is misused very often in Laravel and therefore I don't like it very much. Search my channel for "repositories" for a few videos. 2. Trait examples from my new project: laravelexamples.com/tag/traits Helper examples: laravelexamples.com/tag/helpers From those, you should understand/feel the difference.
The ‘=‘ argument in where() is not required, but occasionally not writing it may cause an error, that will be hard to debug. If search term in where will be “=“ it will cause an error of Builder, for not writing the third parameter. Of course, it will happen with input from user more likely, but, who knows.
Hi! I'm enjoying all your coder reviews. Question with validation: I started to do things with LiveWire. In the docs of LiveWire "You might be wondering if you can use Laravel's "FormRequest"s. Due to the nature of Livewire, hooking into the http request wouldn't make sense. For now, this functionality is not possible or recommended." What do you think? Is more secure or has better performance do the backand things without Livewire and use FormRequest and validated type of checking the Request data or can I do with LiveWire without any issues on long term?
It's a personal preference, so whatever you prefer, depending on how you want to use Livewire - as a full-page component, or just as a part of the form for some fields. There's no security/performance difference, it's about structuring Livewire components how you want.
Probably it's worth noticing that during development it doesn't make sens to make additional migrations just to add a new field in the table. It wouldn't make more sense to just add those fiels in the original migration and be done with it? PS I am just starting with laravel so please correct me if I am wrong.
If you're working alone by yourself and locally, and if you can afford to run "php artisan migrate:fresh" on every change, re-creating the whole database, then yes, it's ok to edit older migrations. But as soon as you have real data, or you deployed project on some other server where other developers work, it's better to create new migrations.
Thx for the video! Could you or someone please help me with the following; I have a 'catch all route' with "->where('menu', '.*')" and in my controller i'm loading in a bunch of variables though not all variables are nessecary for each single page. It depends on certains fields and/or relationships. I'm pretty sure there is a way to conditionally load in variables based on that. Could you point me in the right direction please?
Currently I'm done with junior code reviews for now, but I will start PUBLIC code review program next week. So watch the new videos on this channel on Monday-Tuesday and you will get all the details.
Awesome content, Thank you! Would be nice to have an example for the Laravel project which has both blade front end and also sanctum CRUD API access from other places. public function store(CreateJobRequest $request) { $job = $request->validated(); $job = new Job($job); $job->author()->associate($request->user()); $job->save(); if($request->expectsJson()) { return $this->success($job); } return redirect()->route('job.show', $job->slug); } right now i'm doing this but not sure it's the best way of doing it or not ?
It depends on the project, but in my experience, if the project is both web and API, they should be separate in different controllers, web and API ones. But again, it depends on the project, if your method works for you, use your method.
find the declaration of $data = [ ]; in each controller quite pointless when you can just do something along the lines of view('view')->with([ '' => '']) or view('view', [ '' => '' ]) It's not really proper handling of (large) view/result/response data collections anyway, but if you must really make logic like this just keep it simple and pass all finals inside the ->with() method or directly inside the view() $data parameter, instead of declaring a variable you're never going to modify in the first place. I think it's bad altogether to generate a lot of response arrays inside the controller, while usually you can segregate this into a defined object, but in some situations something along the lines of this is acceptable since it's easy to read and easy to identify it being a final/result collection of data. Also it is accepted for very generic controllers that have next to no logic to split up into an object of it's own and where you want to keep this logic inside the controller since it can invoke unnecessary complexity if you decide to OOP when you don't have to OOP. // Note don't declare a variable for result collections if it's behavior won't change $data = [ 'posts' => Post::all(), 'meta' => MetaData::render(), // ... many other things ]; // While scanning the code I'm expecting something to happen here, but nothing happened... return view('view', $data); // A little bit better.. It is short, easy to read : but keep track of the complexity of your controller and consider making a service return view('view', [ 'posts' => Post::all(), 'meta' => MetaData::render(), // Shouldn't be served from here, consider view::share() // ... many other things ]);
