Cache Routes with Cloudflare in Laravel

The Cloudflare Cache package for Laravel provides cacheable routes, allowing you to serve millions of requests for static pages efficiently. You can define a group of cacheable routes with the Laravel router, including tags. This package makes it easy to start caching with Cloudflare using the Route::cache() method:

Route::cache(tags: ['tag1', 'tag2'], ttl: 600)->group(function () {
    Route::get('/content_with_tags', function () {
        return 'content';
    });
});

Route::cache(tags: ['staticPages'])->group(function () {
    //
});

This package gives you APIs to purge all content, specific URLs, prefixes/tagged URLs (enterprise), and more. As an example, let's say you want to cache articles (Posts) with Cloudflare and purge the cache whenever the article is updated:

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use App\Http\Requests\UpdatePostRequest;
use App\Models\Post;
use Yediyuz\CloudflareCache\Facades\CloudflareCache;

class PostController extends Controller
{
    public function update(Post $post, UpdatePostRequest $request)
    {
        $post->update($request->validated());

        CloudflareCache::purgeByUrls([
            route('post.show', $post->id)
        ]);

        return back()->with('message', 'Post updated and url cache purged');
    }

You can learn more about this package, get full installation instructions, and view the source code on GitHub.
