Rule::array() and whereJsonOverlaps() for MySQL in Laravel 11.7

This week, the Laravel team released v11.7, with a Rule::array() validation method, a whereJsonOverlaps() method for MySQL, a Slack OpenID provider for Laravel Socialite, and more. Introduce the Rule::array() Method Jakub Potocký contributed the Rule::array() method used to validate multiple array keys using the array validation rule. This method enables using this rule with arrays and collections without having the concatenate dynamic values: use Illuminate\Validation\Rule; // Before ['array:' . MyBackedEnum::VALUE->value . ',' . MyBackedEnum::VALUE_2->value]; // After examples Rule::array('key_1', 'key_2', 'key_3'); Rule::array(['key_1', 'key_2', 'key_3']); Rule::array(collect(['key_1', 'key_2', 'key_3'])); Rule::array([UnitEnum::key_1, UnitEnum::key_2, UnitEnum::key_3]); Rule::array([BackedEnum::key_1, BackedEnum::key_2, BackedEnum::key_3]); See Pull Request #51250 for full details. Stringable Support in blank() and filled() Helpers Stefan R. contributed support for Stringable values in the blank() and filled() helpers: // true filled(str('FooBar ')); // true blank(str(' ')); Add "whereJsonOverlaps()" for MySQL Benjamin Ayles contributed support for MySQL's json_overlaps feature that compares two JSON documents: User::whereJsonOverlaps('languages', ['en', 'fr'])->exists(); User::whereJsonDoesntOverlap('languages', ['en', 'fr'])->exists(); See Pull Request #51288 for more details and discussion. Add PasswordResetLinkSent Event Matt Jones contributed a new event called PasswordResetLinkSent which fires when a password reset link is sent. See Pull Request #51253 for more details. Laravel Socialite Provider for Slack OpenID Maarten Paauw contributed a separate Slack OpenID provider for Laravel Socialite. See Pull Request #704 for details and links to the Slack documentation.

This Arduino-controlled machine dispenses the perfect bowl of cereal

Breakfast cereal is controversial. Milk or cereal first? Best cereal to milk ratio? Favorite cereal? Most attractive mascot? The opportunities for debate never end. But we can all agree that consistency is key when it comes to the milk:cereal ratio — nobody changes that up from day to day. To ensure that every pour is […] The post This Arduino-controlled machine dispenses the perfect bowl of cereal appeared first on Arduino Blog.

Optimize Your Eloquent Queries with AI

The Laravel Slower package is designed for Laravel developers who want to enhance the performance of their applications. This package identifies slow queries and suggests optimizations such as indexing and other improvements. Depending on how you configure your application's scheduler, you could run the following commands each day to analyze and clean up old records: php artisan slower:clean /*{days=15} Delete records older than 15 days.*/ php artisan slower:analyze /*Analyze the records where is_analyzed=false*/ Recommendations created with the slower:analyze command are stored in the database table created by this package, which you can review after AI analysis is completed. As part of the AI analysis, this package's main features include: A configurable slow threshold Configurable AI models like Chat GPT-4 Disable AI and only log slow queries Configurable prompt for AI Disable slow query analysis The README includes an example analysis to help you visualize what you can expect with this package: /* select count(*) as aggregate from "product_prices" where "product_id" = '1' and "price" = '0' and "discount_total" > '0' */ dd($model->recommendation); /* Indexing: Effective database indexing can significantly speed up query performance. For your query, consider adding a combined (composite) index on product_id, price, and discount_total. This index would work well because the where clause covers all these columns. */ /* CREATE INDEX idx_product_prices ON product_prices (product_id, price, discount_total); */ You can learn more about this package, get full installation instructions, and view the source code on GitHub.

Assess your aquarium’s health with an AI-enabled ultrasonic sensor

Below the surface of any body of water, harmful amounts of toxic gases and contaminates can accumulate, which leads to a loss in fish and plant populations if not fixed quickly. But because most water testing, especially in aquariums, is done primarily on the surface, vital information gets missed. Kutluhan Aktar’s automated testing system aims to address […] The post Assess your aquarium’s health with an AI-enabled ultrasonic sensor appeared first on Arduino Blog.

Create your own affordable Arduino-powered smart glasses

When Google Glass launched in 2013, the public opinion seemed to be “interesting technology, but the world isn’t ready yet.” Now that more than a decade has passed, the world may finally be ready — especially with the omission of controversial features like video recording. If that appeals to you, then Akashv44 has a great […] The post Create your own affordable Arduino-powered smart glasses appeared first on Arduino Blog.

NativePHP Windows Builds are Here

Windows support for NativePHP was announced, which means that you can now build applications for the Windows platform. Windows builds are working, and with that, all platforms will get new versions of PHP to work with. I know many of you have been patiently waiting for this. Over the months, we've racked up quite a few issues as folks have attempted to find some way to get Windows builds working. I totally get this enthusiasm, Windows support was always on the cards, but we stated early on that Windows support was going to take a while longer for one main reason: a lack of static builds of PHP for Windows with enough extensions baked in to support booting a Laravel application. To start building for Windows, update to the latest version of nativephp/electron via Composer: composer require nativephp/electron You can now build for Windows even while on another OS using the OS argument via the build command: php artisan native:build win Along with Windows support, this release introduces broader support for multiple versions of PHP. This release enables full Laravel 11 support using PHP 8.2 or PHP 8.3 to develop your applications. NativePHP binaries are expected to happen more regularly. You can learn more about this release from the GitHub discussion. The post NativePHP Windows Builds are Here appeared first on Laravel News.
