Has anyone tried this (curious)

So I'm curious about something that I haven't tried myself yet, time permitting I will soon. Has anyone ever attempted sending the browser's DOM to their PHP server, manipulating the DOM with PHP and then sent it back to the browser replacing the original DOM to render stuff. I don't mind if it's a bad idea I'm just brain farting. Please tell me your experience.

Laravel and Massive Historical Data: Scaling Strategies

Hey guys

I'm developing a project involving real-time monitoring of offshore oil wells. Downhole sensors generate pressure and temperature data every 30 seconds, resulting in \~100k daily records. So far, with SQLite and 2M records, charts load smoothly, but when simulating larger scales (e.g., 50M), slowness becomes noticeable, even for short time ranges.

Reservoir engineers rely on historical data, sometimes spanning years, to compare with current trends and make decisions. My goal is to optimize performance without locking away older data. My initial idea is to archive older records into secondary tables, but I'm curious how you guys deal with old data that might be required alongside current data?

I've used SQLite for testing, but production will use PostgreSQL.

(PS: No magic bullets needed—let's brainstorm how Laravel can thrive in exponential data growth)

What folders/files do you typically hide in VS Code when working with Laravel projects?

I’ve been working on Laravel projects in VS Code, and I’ve noticed that there are a lot of folders and files that aren’t directly relevant to my day-to-day coding (e.g., vendor, node_modules, etc.). To keep my workspace clean, I’ve started hiding some of these in VS Code.
I’m curious, what folders or files do you typically hide in your Laravel projects?
Are there any best practices or recommendations for managing the VS Code workspace to improve productivity?

Understanding Official Starter Kit options as a Laravel newbie

I'm a newbie to laravel and I come from the javanoscript world. Am I understanding the starter kit's Livewire flavour correctly that it uses Flux UI which is a paid option?

Not complaining about it, but wanted to know if I should stick with my familiar Vue Inertia combo (shadcn-vue is free & open-source) or go the Livewire path (learning curve here for me). Just want to clarify this before I go too far with either and then discovering these kinda facts. Thanks!

Recreating React style components in Twig

I have recently been learning React and really like the how I can build a page using reusable React components. I have also been using TailwindCSS for sometime and the combination of the 2, to me, really makes sense.

I was looking at trying to recreate a similar approach in Twig. I have come up with the following as a first attempt. I was just wondering if anyone else has been down this rabbit hole and how you solved it?

{% extends 'application.html.twig' %}

{% block main %}
{% embed '@VendorBundle/PageContainer.html.twig' %}
{% block children %}
{% embed '@VendorBundle/PageHeader.html.twig' %}
{% block noscript %}Users{% endblock %}
{% block children %}
{% embed '@VendorBundle/Button/Primary.html.twig' %}
{% block href %}{{ path('name_of_path') }}{% endblock %}
{% block children %}
{{ ux_icon('bi:plus', {class: 'w-3 h-3'}) }}
Add New
{% endblock %}
{% endembed %}
{% endblock %}
{% endembed %}
{% embed '@VendorBundle/Table/TableContainer.html.twig' %}
{% block children %}
{% embed '@VendorBundle/Table/Table.html.twig' %}

Laravel Cloud blocking iframes

I was evaluating Laravel Cloud as an alternative to Heroku recently and found that it's not suitable for our BigCommerce & Shopify apps as they add an "X-Frame-Options: Deny" header.

This essentially blocks our apps from loading as both platforms use iframes. I've spoken to support and it doesn't sound like it's an option that Laravel are going to provide in the short term.

Has anyone come up with a workaround? Perhaps Cloudflare could remove the header?

The right way to achieve confirmation before committing to database?

Hi All,

Basically I would like to have a confirmation from user once he has enter data and press submit button. The use case is as below:
1. User enters all the necessary data.
2. User press submit button.
3. User is presented with data he inputted and asked to confirm if he is sure about the data and if he want to confirm submission.
4.User confirms and then data is committed to db.

I am thinking about having two methods inside controller. Controller method 1 prepare and render form in step 1 and 2. Then it reroute the user to controller method 2.
CController method 2 will then process the step 3 and 4.

Is this right way to do?

Assert that response has element works locally, fails on GitHub Actions

All my tests work locally, but most fail on GitHub Actions:

F..FEEEEFEEEEEE...FEEEEEEEEEFFFE.EE....FF....FFEEE..EEEF.FFFFFF  63 / 125 ( 50%)
FFF.FFFFFFFFF.FF..............................................  125 / 125 (100%)

These are all the functional tests that actually request a page.

Example:

App\Tests\SignUpControllerTest::test_page_is_only_accessible_to_guests
Failed asserting that the Response status code is 200.
HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error

 public function test_page_is_only_accessible_to_guests(): void
 {
  exec('php bin/console doctrine:fixtures:load ' . UserFixtures::class . ' --env=test --no-interaction');

  if (!self::$booted)
  {
   self::bootKernel();
  }

  /** @var KernelBrowser $browser */
  $browser = self::getContainer()->get('test.client');
  $browser->setServerParameters([
   'HTTP_HOST' => 'localhost:8000',
   'HTTPS' => false,
  ]);

  /** @var KernelBrowser $browser */
  $browser = self::getClient($browser);

  $browser->request(Request::METHOD_GET, $route);

  $this->assertResponseStatusCodeSame(Response::HTTP_OK);
 }

Could 'HTTP_HOST' => 'localhost:8000' be the culprit? How to make this compatible with GitHub CI/CD?

Is Laravel Broadcasting suitable for real-time online game?

I struggle to understand how multiplayer online games work with WebSockets. I've always thought that they keep one connection open for both sides of the communication - sending and receiving, so the latency is as minimal as possible.

However, Laravel seems to suggest sending messages via WebSockets through axios or fetch API, which is where I'm confused. Isn't creating new HTTP requests considered slow? There is a lot going on to dispatch a request, bootstrap the app etc. Doesn't it kill all the purpose of WebSocket connection, which is supposed to be almost real-time?

Is PHP a suboptimal choice for real-time multiplayer games in general? Do some other languages or technologies keep the app open in memory, so HTTP requests are not necessary? It's really confusing to me, because I haven't seen any tutorials using Broadcasting without axios or fetch.

How do I implement a game that, for example, stores my action in a database and sends it immediately to other players?

DAE get frustrated when searching for a Composer package for "foo" and only find "laravel-foo"?

I get that many people use Laravel, but like myself, many don't. I'd much rather use independent packages that are not wired in to illuminate or whatever. Why not make an independent package for the functionality, and then add a bridge/wrapper for Laravel? That way you can support many frameworks if you so choose.

Whats your approach for realtime applications on shared hosts

When it comes to realtime web applications, its always things like ReactPHP, or nodejs based websocket, or similar tools that are not really an option on shared hosts.
The next obvious thing would be SSE, but because of the usual low php process limit, this isnt an option as well if youre not the only person using the application...

So I'm curious what do others use? Is a 3rd party tool like pusher the only option?
