2. laravelcollective/html

This one replaces the light up/html class, since that class is no more bolstered and is no more incorporated into the center as of laravel 5. This bundle is crucial, in the event that you like utilizing the form model binding

{!! Form::model($marketingImage, ['route' => ['marketingimage.destroy', $marketingImage->id],
        'method' => 'DELETE',
        'class' => 'form',
        'files' => true]
        ) !!}

But obviously this is not completely necessary, which is why it’s no longer in the core. You could simply create a form manually using bootstrap. You just have to remember to add:

 <input type="hidden" name="_token" value="{{ csrf_token() }}">

That will add your csrf token to the post data.

So obviously, using the Form helper does this for you, which is why I use it when I can. I find it very convenient.

When you are installing this, you will see instructions for adding the ‘Form’ alias. Please note that the bootstrapper package has Form alias as well and you cannot use both, because it will cause a conflict. So I solved this by simply not including the alias for the bootstrapper form alias.

Also note: Most instructions for adding to providers array and the alias array are not using the new PHP ::class syntax. I recommend using the new syntax, which is better to use because you can use your IDE to click into the class.

So for example, old style alias:

'Form'  => 'Collective\Html\FormFacade',

New style:

'Form'  => Collective\Html\FormFacade::class,

You can do the same for the providers, in this case it’s the html provider:

Collective\Html\HtmlServiceProvider::class,

3. laravel-cors

The laravel-cors package allows you to send Cross-Origin Resource Sharing headers with ACL-style per-url configuration.

If you want to have have a global overview of CORS workflow, you can browse this image.

Features

• Handles CORS pre-flight OPTIONS requests
• Adds CORS headers to your responses

Configuration

The defaults are set in `config/cors.php’. Copy this file to your own config directory to modify the values. You can publish the config using this command:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Barryvdh\Cors\ServiceProvider"

Note: When using custom headers, like X-Auth-Token or X-Requested-With, you must set the allowedHeaders to include those headers. You can also set it to array('*') to allow all custom headers.

Note: If you are explicitly whitelisting headers, you must include Origin or requests will fail to be recognized as CORS.

return [
    'supportsCredentials' => false,
    'allowedOrigins' => ['*'],
    'allowedHeaders' => ['Content-Type', 'Accept'],
    'allowedMethods' => ['GET', 'POST', 'PUT',  'DELETE'],
    'exposedHeaders' => [],
    'maxAge' => 0,
    'hosts' => [],
]

allowedOrigins, allowedHeaders and allowedMethods can be set to array('*') to accept any value, the allowed methods however have to be explicitly listed.

Note: Because of http method overriding in Laravel, allowing POST methods will also enable the API users to perform PUT and DELETE requests as well.

Installation

Require the barryvdh/laravel-cors package in your composer.json and update your dependencies.

$ composer require barryvdh/laravel-cors

Add the Cors\ServiceProvider to your config/app.php providers array:

 'Barryvdh\Cors\ServiceProvider',

Usage

The ServiceProvider adds a route middleware you can use, called cors. You can apply this to a route or group to add CORS support.

Route::group(['middleware' => 'cors'], function(Router $router){
    $router->get('api', 'ApiController@index');
});

If you want CORS to apply for all your routes, add it as global middleware:

'Barryvdh\Cors\HandleCors',

4. Lumen

On Laravel Lumen, use LumenServiceProvider:

 'Barryvdh\Cors\LumenServiceProvider',

And load your configuration file manually:

$app->configure('cors');

5. laracasts/flash

This is a nice handy helper to make your flash message syntax in your controller beautiful:

flash()->success('Marketing Image Created!');

laracasts/generators

This one gives us an artisan command for creating pivot table migrations.

6. proxy

With this packages you can Set trusted proxies for Laravel . learn how to protect your laravel app from bots and spammers around the web

Laravel 5 has a much nicer system for Middleware, which this package now takes advantage of.

New features include:

1. TrustedProxies are now set as in an HTTP Middleware, which makes more logical sense than the previous ServiceProvider. If you’re unsure what that means, remember to “Just Trust Fideloper™”.
2. You can now set the trusted header names. This is useful for proxies that don’t use the usual X-Forwarded-* headers.

To use this with Laravel 5, run the following from your Laravel 5 project directory:

composer require fideloper/proxy

{
    "require": {
        "fideloper/proxy": "^3.1"
    }
}

$ composer require fideloper/proxy

'providers' => array(
    # other providers omitted
    'Fideloper\Proxy\TrustedProxyServiceProvider',
);

$ php artisan vendor:publish

    protected $middleware = [
        // Illuminate middlewares omitted for brevity

        'Fideloper\Proxy\TrustProxies',

<?php

return [
    'proxies' => [
        '192.168.10.10',
    ],

    // These are defaults already set in the config:
    'headers' => [
        \Illuminate\Http\Request::HEADER_CLIENT_IP    => 'X_FORWARDED_FOR',
        \Illuminate\Http\Request::HEADER_CLIENT_HOST  => 'X_FORWARDED_HOST',
        \Illuminate\Http\Request::HEADER_CLIENT_PROTO => 'X_FORWARDED_PROTO',
        \Illuminate\Http\Request::HEADER_CLIENT_PORT  => 'X_FORWARDED_PORT',
    ]
];
