Long running command using httpClient starts printing curl debug info

I've got a command that uses a service that repeatedly calls httpClient->request('POST'. The process runs for around 45 min and makes a post request a few thousand times.

What's odd is after running for a few minutes (and a few hundred POST requests) I start getting debug information from CURL for every new request - like this:

Connection #2 to host generativelanguage.googleapis.com left intact

anyone have an idea why this is happening?

Struggling to grasp Laravel after learning PHP — advice needed!

I recently learned PHP and wanted to start with Laravel, but I’m having a hard time understanding how everything works—especially Composer, artisan commands, and the overall structure of the framework. It feels like there’s a gap between learning core PHP and jumping into Laravel. Should I spend more time on advanced PHP concepts first, or just keep going with Laravel tutorials? Any advice or beginner-friendly resources that explain things clearly would be really helpful.

PHP lib for character / avatar drawing

Hello there! Not an advanced dev here, mainly used vanilla PHP or CMS-based.

I'm trying to create a small project to teach about stereotypes.

From an official source, I got percentages about particularities (age, disability, ...). Next, I generate a random person based on these particularities and, last step, I want to create an avatar of this person (example: blind old lady, good rent, low education, ...).

Do you know any library with an high level of customization? Or maybe I should try differently, with JS or CSS5?


Thanks in advance for your help!

Is there anyone one who has ever deployed a Laravel website to Hostinger using shared hosting (not VPS)?

I have been at it now for weeks, and I have consulted multiple AI's, documentation, and I can't seem to get my site deployed to Hostinger, so I am asking here as I am very curious to know if anyone has ever done so? And if so, perhaps you could let me know or point me to a good source where I can get it done?

I know that it's not so straightforward and requires installing lots of Laravel dependencies in the server using SSH access, which I have done, and so I would just be grateful to know if anyone out there has successfully deployed a Laravel site to Hostinger on a shared hosting plan, rather than VPS.

Job systems

Are there job systems for php, like Sidekiq and SolidQueue are in the Ruby (on Rails) world? I've looked at RabbitMq and Symfony Messenger, with the latter being more what I'm looking for but still not quite the same thing. I'm not using any framework but I am already using some packages from Symfony.

Adding User-Selectable Audio/Video Trimming to Filament Forms

Hi folks,

Quick question for the FilamentPHP and Laravel community!

I'm using Filament forms with the Spatie Media Library plugin to handle audio and video uploads for my models. This part works great.

The challenge I'm facing is that I need to allow users to not just upload a file, but also trim it down to a maximum of 10 seconds. Crucially, I need the user to be able to choose which 10-second segment they want to keep from the uploaded file, ideally directly within the Filament form interface.

On the backend, I know FFmpeg is the go-to tool for server-side trimming based on start time and duration.

My main hurdle is the frontend user interaction part. Allowing a user to select a specific 10-second clip typically requires a media player with controls or a waveform/timeline interface in the browser. However, I'd ideally like to avoid building a complex custom frontend component from scratch myself.

Any pointers, examples, or suggestions would be hugely appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

As someone with PHP already installed locally, I can appreciate when trying out a codebase can be this simple

I have to say I'm proud of how the development environment instructions turned out for Lipupini: https://files.catbox.moe/9wsx68.png

Make sure all dependencies are installed first.

1) Clone the app and cd into the project root

git clone https://github.com/lipupini/lipupini.git

cd lipupini

2) Install Composer dependencies. Composer should automatically create the config file after installing.

composer install

3) Navigate to the webserver document root and start PHP's built-in webserver

cd webroot

php -S localhost:4000 index.php

4) Visit http://localhost:4000/@example
