Laravel Programming Tutorials, Guides & Best Practices

Locate the vite.config.js file in the root directory of your Laravel project (create it if it doesn’t exist):

   nano vite.config.js

Open database/factories/PostFactory.php and define the factory:

   namespace Database\Factories;

   use App\Models\Post;
   use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\Factory;

   class PostFactory extends Factory
   {
       protected $model = Post::class;

       public function definition()
       {
           return [
               'title' => $this->faker->sentence,
               'content' => $this->faker->paragraphs(3, true),
           ];
       }
   }

In any Blade view:

   <x-button type="success" label="Save Changes" />
   <x-button type="danger" label="Delete" />

Use Laravel’s encrypt and decrypt helpers for storing sensitive data securely:

   $encrypted = encrypt($sensitiveData);
   $decrypted = decrypt($encrypted);

   public function index(Request $request)
   {
       $sortBy = $request->get('sort_by', 'id');
       $sortOrder = $request->get('sort_order', 'asc');

       $posts = Post::orderBy($sortBy, $sortOrder)->paginate(10);

       return response()->json([
           'data' => $posts->items(),
           'meta' => [
               'current_page' => $posts->currentPage(),
               'per_page' => $posts->perPage(),
               'total' => $posts->total(),
               'last_page' => $posts->lastPage(),
           ],
           'links' => [
               'next' => $posts->nextPageUrl(),
               'previous' => $posts->previousPageUrl(),
           ],
       ]);
   }

Add query parameters for filtering:
