Reusable Data Development Tutorials, Guides & Insights

Generate a new service provider to handle shared data:

   php artisan make:provider PerformanceServiceProvider

   public function isAdmin()
   {
       return $this->userRole === 'admin';
   }

   public function canUploadFiles()
   {
       return $this->featureToggles['file_uploads_enabled'];
   }

Call these methods in child controllers to simplify logic:

   namespace App\Providers;

   use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;

   class SharedDataServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
   {
       public function register()
       {
           $this->app->singleton('sharedData', function () {
               return (object) [
                   'maxUploads' => 20, // Maximum file uploads allowed
                   'apiRateLimit' => 100, // API requests per minute
                   'theme' => 'dark', // Default UI theme
               ];
           });
       }
   }

Add the provider to the providers array in config/app.php:
