Creating a Configurable Pagination System in Laravel

Open the migration file and define the necessary fields:

   use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
   use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
   use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;

   class CreateSiteSettingsTable extends Migration
   {
       public function up()
       {
           Schema::create('site_settings', function (Blueprint $table) {
               $table->id();
               $table->string('key')->unique();
               $table->string('value')->nullable();
               $table->timestamps();
           });
       }

       public function down()
       {
           Schema::dropIfExists('site_settings');
       }
   }

   php artisan make:model SiteSetting

   namespace App\Models;

   use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

   class SiteSetting extends Model
   {
       protected $fillable = ['key', 'value'];
   }

• Max Uploads: Limits the number of files a user can upload.
• API Rate Limit: Defines the number of API requests allowed per minute.
• Feature Toggles: Manages the state of application features.

Generate a new service provider to handle shared data:

   namespace App\Http\Controllers;

   class FileController extends BaseController
   {
       public function upload()
       {
           if (!$this->canUploadFiles()) {
               return redirect()->back()->with('error', 'File uploads are disabled.');
           }

           // Handle file upload logic here
       }
   }

• Centralized Logic: Common functionality is defined in one place, reducing code duplication.
• Ease of Maintenance: Updates to shared logic automatically apply to all child controllers.
• Improved Readability: Child controllers remain focused on specific actions, while shared concerns are handled in the Base Controller.
