Next up, we have @taylorotwell on @LaraconOnline

Thread about keynotes from Taylor's talk.

🧵

Thanking everyone 😅

Stupid internet got disconnected. Alright, we are back on.

Exploring Laravel Sail

sail up to start Laravel Sail using #Docker

All you need to do is go to localhost to use Sail app.

oh we are actually exploring @meilisearch

5000 movie records.

sail artisan scout:flush "App\Models\Movie"

sail artisan migrate:fresh --seed

Seeder was inserting into Meiliesearch that's why it will take few minutes.

( meliesearch using Laravel Scout )

Oh Taylor is using Apple Safari, cool.

Search for the record. Really quick.

Meliesearch for searching Eloquent Models. It's pretty cool. Recommended by Taylor.

Some improvements of Laravel Breeze.

Feather weight authetnication scaffolding for Laravel. All of the logic exported directed to Laravel app.

Also great for people who are learning Laravel , like beginners.

Now it has @inertiajs version

Laravel Breeze with Inertia

--inertia flag for Laravel Breeze. NPM install and dev.

Showing the Controllers and telling how we can modify them to our needs.

@inertiajs based Laravel Breeze, also talked about Hot reload in Laravel Mix.

Next is Cashier updates.

@driesvints and one other contributor worked on Metered Billing in Laravel Cashier and it has now landed.

Imagine you are building Email service where customer pay different amount per different quota. Plan is dynamic. Depends on usage ->Metered Biling

Two new casts available in Eloquent ORM.

AsArrayObject and ...

'array' and 'json' casts are not going anywhere but these have limitations.

Eloquent model attributes are magically resolved. Set the virtual property which doesn't exist.

We need to update the whole attribute to avoid the above error.

ArrayObject is a PHP class, natively, that's why we use AsArrayObject and not ArrayObject, but it does extend it under the hood.

Json extension in Safari, good to know.

iterable can cover AsArrayObject in type-hinting of methods.

you can also get ArrayObject as collections.

Two new Casts for Eloquent

AsCollection and AsArrayObject

Both of these casts make it easier to work with arrays coming out of database.

Fluent way to make assertions against JSON, by @ClaudioDekker

AssertableJson -> Fluent Assertions on JSON data 🥳

whereAll() shortcut to avoid many where methods.

missingAll() method will warn if new field is present which we didn't specify.

etc() method to resuce 😍

etc() method deserves a separate tweet

Great work, @ClaudioDekker

Fluent JSON testing also allows us to work with meta.

->has() methods

->has('users', 2 ) // specify we get 2 users

Parallel Testing , addition by @enunomaduro in Laravel 8

Synchronous tests = Slow

php artisan test --parallel 😍

NEW Middleware for throttling Job Exceptions.

How many exceptions will your job throw per minute / per 10 minutes or whatever.

decayMinutes: 0.24, 10 exceptions per 15 minutes

only throttle when() its instance of RuntimeException

$maxExceptions = 3, if exception is not expected only handle it 3 times and then fail it.

This new middleware is also available in Laravel 8.

Laravel Octane 😍

Logo by @Caneco

#Laravel #PHP @LaraconOnline

It's always fun to make things faster.

Developers Love Speed 😂

Run Laravel faster, Run Laravel at extreme speeds.

Typically we run PHP behind web servers like Nginx. And whole code is booted at every request. And it's all good.

No worries about memory leak etc.

downside is, every aspect of Laravel framework has to be booted again on *every request*.

Framework overhead that we need to do all this on every request. 100 of millions of requests can be handled per month with Laravel.

Boot framework and keep it memory to avoid all this.

There are tools already available like @php_swoole , RoadRunner. But it doesn't offer co-routines like Swoole. Swoole does require us to install extension in order to use it.

Some gotchas to run your PHP like this.

Config changes, static properties on classes will leak into next incoming requests.

But we also run our Laravel apps like this, but in Queues, in background. We are not scared of it. We have memory leaks in Queue workers.

So we can use the same thing in Web layer, possibly using Laravel Octane.

Laravel will introduce first-party package thing to support running on Swoole or RoadRunner etc

Offer a single unified package to run Larvael on things like @php_swoole and RoadRunner.

This is what Laravel Octane is about.

#Laravel #php

config/octane.php

Lots of events, RequestRecieved, RequestHandled, RequestTerminated etc

HOw to use Octane

workers depends on CPU

Woooahhh... its supppper fast ⚡️ Can't capture speed on screenshot.

You will just have to believe me. Super fast!😂

If you make a change, it will not appear.

Queue worker mindset. If we make change, we have to reload our Swoole server.

It's inconveniet, right?

Well, @taylorotwell introduced Hot-Reloading which works for both @php_swoole and Road Runner to solve it.

What about performance?

400 requests per second with PHP-FPM and Nginx

Same test for Swoole version 6281 requests/second 🤯

Woah.. That's a lot of performance boot using @php_swoole with Laravel Octane.

#Laravel #PHP

Laravel Octane will be released soon :)

Octane::route(), a route or two which you need to be blazing fast!

Don't build all app routes on Octane routes 😂

Must respond with Illuminate\Response.

OH MY GOD....

16K+ requests/second on Octane Routes.

So much more to do with Octane. Beta is coming in few weeks and will be available.

End of @taylorotwell talk.

Man, that was insane! Mind blowing.
