My Laravel Packages

Hi everyone. I have created 2 packages for Laravel that may be useful to some of you.

1. Laravel Livewire CRUD

This package provides a comprehensive solution for CRUD operations within your Laravel applications, offering a streamlined and reusable approach for managing data. Whether you're working with Laravel controllers or Livewire components, this package allows you to:

Simplify common CRUD operations (create, read, update, delete) by abstracting and consolidating logic and reducing boilerplate code.
Enhance productivity by providing out-of-the-box methods for storing, updating, and deleting records.
Integrate seamlessly with both Laravel and Livewire, making it easy to use in traditional controllers or real-time components.
Ensure consistency across your application with standardized CRUD methods for various models.
Support bulk actions, enabling efficient mass deletion or updates of records.
Reduce development time by leveraging reusable methods for model interactions, validation and error handling.

Bugsnag alternative for local installation

I’m looking for an alternative for bugsnag for local installation. I hate ELK stack, and I couldn’t connect it to all of the apps properly. It is such a headache. I’m looking for something similar to bugsnag where I composer require the package and voila. And it has to be on premise

How do you discover new/changed features in the framework?

I think it's great that Laravel is focusing on attracting new developers. And the documentation \*is\* pretty good. In fact I think it's worth reading from start to finish at least once every couple of years. But my question is this: How am I supposed to stay informed about new or changed framework features after that? Here are some comments/observations in no particular order. Because it's definitely \*not\* a rant /s.

* The upgrade notes for new major versions only tell you about breaking changes, and most new additions aren't breaking. That's how it should be. It just means you can't "Just read the upgrade notes" to get an overview of what has changed.
* New features are usually including in the weekly releases, which \*do\* have something that resembles release notes, but it's just an auto generated list of commit messages that usually don't explain a whole lot about what they actually do. And the lack of conventional commit messages make it harder to find what's relevant. I'm not arguing that it should be beautiful prose, and I don't mind diving into the source to see the details - I just don't want to review the entire diff every week because it's impossible to spot which commits are relevant.
* I browse Laravel News at least once a week. IMO this is probably the best source of information about new features for people like me who don't use twitter/mastodon/bluesky/whatever people are using this week. But it's kind of hit or miss. And their community "Links" section don't seem to be moderated at all. The [What's New in Laravel 12 : Latest Features and Updates](https://www.bacancytechnology.com/blog/laravel-12-features-updates) blog post looks like what I need (it even has a star, whatever that means), but it's just AI hallucinations and word salad from start to finish. About what you'd expect from a Google search, but this is supposedly the "official" Laravel news site (check the "News" footer link on laravel.com).

I hope some of you can enlighten me. Especially if it doesn't involve "just follow these 25 people on these 4 social media sites".

Xdebug Helper Chrome Extension alternative?

The recent Chrome update that prevents things like uBlockOrigin from working also seems to have taken out the old Xdebug Helper extension as well. I've never really thought about how else to approach activating Xdebug from the browser, other than [annoyingly\] having to append the full query param string whenever I want to use it. Is there some alternative I'm not thinking of? There's a handful of Chrome extensions that purport to do the same as the original that seem to be active still, but very few installs and reviews, so I'm iffy on trusting those.

How are you using Xdebug from the browser?

Who offers affordable Wordpress hosting with CI/CD with zero-downtime dep

I got a simple site im setting up and I want to be able to push an update to my github repo that has my theme and plugins. I saw render.com but it doesnt offer zero-downtime for deployments if you have a persistent disk....meaning what if I upload images like for blog post...they wont stay so.....Now im confused on how to even do CI/CD where I can have a realistic WordPress site, using Github, and not have downtime when I push updates.

Model attributes are easy to discover

I saw a post a few days ago where everyone was asked what they could have in Laravel if they got their wish. So many people talked about the models having attributes and stuff that they couldn't just see that in their code.

I'm not saying that you'll get intellisense or other ide helpers, but model:show is awesome and has been around for a while.

Here's a tutorial so that you can access this info super fast in vs code.

Does Laravel Cloud support Non-Laravel codebases or Docker?

The noscript is my question. We are currently in planning phase and I plan to tell the stakeholders that we want to use Laravel Cloud as hosting solution so they create accounts for me and my dev. team.

But because of our design preference, we will use Laravel specifically for API and backend tasks...
We will have 3 frontend applications with their own separate code bases... So I wonder if Laravel Cloud only allows you to host Laravel apps or can we also use it to host Svelte and React codebases that doesn't have PHP code at all?

I wonder if we can also use Docker images on Laravel Cloud as well.

Alpine & Livewire Tooling

There are tools like PHPStan (for PHP) and ESLint (for Vue / React), which can identify problems ahead of time.

When it comes to Alpine/Livewire, what tools do you guys use for error detection / static analysis? Does anything like this exist yet?

HTMP: A Smarter, Faster Future for PHP Development

PHP has been the backbone of web development for decades, yet many templating engines and frameworks introduce unnecessary complexity, security risks, or performance bottlenecks. Enter HTMP (Hyper Text Markup PHP)—a next-generation PHP framework and templating engine designed to be lightweight, AI-powered, and optimized for speed, security, and scalability.

Unlike Blade, Twig, or Smarty, HTMP offers:

Optimized Execution – Eliminates redundant code for better performance.
AI Integration – Native AI hooks enable predictive content and automation.
Enterprise Security – Built-in XSS, CSRF, and SQL injection protection.
Seamless WordPress Support – Works out of the box with WordPress for high-performance themes and plugins.

Example of its intuitive syntax:

<htmp-template name="user-profile">
    <htmp-if condition="user.isLoggedIn">
        <htmp-text>Welcome, {user.name}!</htmp-text>
        <htmp-button action="logout">Log Out</htmp-button>
    </htmp-if>
    <htmp-else>
        <htmp-button action="login">Log In</htmp-button>
    </htmp-else>
</htmp-template>

HTMP’s AI-driven automation could change how developers handle dynamic content, SEO, and user experiences without relying on external noscripts. It is designed to scale from small applications to enterprise-level platforms.

Would you use something like this? How do you see AI fitting into the future of PHP frameworks?

🚀 Onym – A Simple & Flexible Filename Generator for Laravel

Hey r/laravel! 👋

I was developing another package and needed a consistent way to generate filenames across my project. Of course, Laravel has great helpers like Str::random(), Str::uuid(), etc., but I wanted a centralized place to manage file naming logic across my app.

So, I wrote a class to handle it—and then thought, why not package it up for everyone? That’s how Onym was born! 🎉

# 🔥 What Onym Does

✅ Centralized File Naming – Manage all filename generation in one place.
✅ Multiple Strategies – Generate filenames using random, uuid, timestamp, date, slug, hash, and numbered.
✅ Customizable & Human-Readable – Control filename formats with timestamps, UUIDs, and slugs.
✅ Seamless Laravel Integration – Works natively with Laravel’s filesystem and config system.
✅ Collision-Free & Predictable – Ensures structured, unique filenames every time.
✅ Lightweight & Extensible – Simple API, no unnecessary dependencies, and easy to expand.

use Blaspsoft\Onym\Facades\Onym;

// Random Strategy
Onym::make(strategy: 'random', options:
'length' => 8,
'prefix' => 'temp_',
'suffix' => '_draft'
);
// Result: "tempa1b2c3d4draft.txt"

// You can call the strategy methods directly, default options for each strategy can be set in the onym config file or you can override the defaults

Onym::random() // will use defaults

Onym::random(extension: 'pdf', options:
'length' => 24
) // will override the default length option
