Symfony Messenger in Node.js? Yes, it's possible!

The Symfony Messenger component is a powerful tool for building message-driven architectures, enabling seamless communication between services and transport layers. If you're a full-stack developer or work across multiple stacks, you might appreciate having similar patterns available in other ecosystems.

I wanted to share a library for NestJS that follows a similar philosophy to Symfony Messenger — and even draws inspiration from systems like NServiceBus in the .NET world. It brings structured, maintainable messaging to the Node.js ecosystem using decorators, handlers, middleware, and transport abstraction.

NPM package: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@nestjstools/messaging
Example repo: https://github.com/nestjstools/messaging-rabbitmq-example

If you're working in a polyglot setup or just curious about messaging in Node.js, give it a try and let me know what you think!

An easier way to document your Laravel endpoints using Swagger

Hi everyone!
Today I want to share a library I’ve been working on that makes documenting your Laravel API endpoints much easier.

During your E2E tests, this library captures the requests made to your endpoints and automatically generates the corresponding Swagger (OpenAPI) documentation.

For example, if you have a test like this:

function test_shouldCreateUser() {
    $this
        ->perryHttp()
        ->withHeaders(['api_key' => 'some_api_key'])
        ->withBody([
            'name' => 'John Doe',
            'age' => 25,
            'email' => 'john@doe.com',
            'password' => 'password',
        ])
        ->post('/user')
        ->assertJson(['success' => true])
        ->assertStatus(Response::HTTP_CREATED);
}

The library will capture the request, response, headers, and other relevant details, then generate a Swagger-compatible YAML file documenting the endpoint automatically.

The generated file can be used with Swagger UI, Redoc, Postman, or any tool that supports OpenAPI specs.

## How to install

Install it via Composer:

composer require n4m-ward/laravel-perry

Then run the library using:

./vendor/bin/perry

Policy Attributes

Policies are a slightly obscure but critical part of Laravel security. They're the best solution to the common route-model-binding vulnerability where an attacker can just hit /post/123 even through they are only the author of /post/456. We've been working quietly on a proof concept to make CRUD resource controllers "locked by default" and to allow more explicating Model to Policy mapping using php attributes. https://github.com/icehouse-ventures/laravel-policy-attributes Taylor just merged a new Model-Policy mapping attribute called UsePolicy so it seemed a good time to get some feedback on upgrading the Controller side of things. Any feedback?

How do you set your rate limiters?

I had considered blocking ip addresses for more than 60 requests per minute for 24 hours and displaying a 429. But then I thought, no one sends 60+ requests per minute, 30 might be enough ... but then I thought, what about some search engine bots - maybe they need more requests.

It would probably also make sense to block ip addresses for example at more than 1000 requests per hour and 5000 requests per day (or so).

And, for example, try to reduce login attempts to 10 per hour.

Of course, it also depends on the application and the usual traffic.

So, how do you go about this? What does your setup look like and how do you find out if it is optimal?

PHP Records: In Userland

Some of you may remember my RFC on Records (https://wiki.php.net/rfc/records). After months of off-and-on R&D, I now present to you a general-use Records base-class: https://github.com/withinboredom/records

This library allows you to define and use records — albeit, with a bit of boilerplate. Records are value objects, meaning strict equality (===) is defined by value, not by reference. This is useful for unit types or custom scalar types (like "names", "users", or "ids").

Unfortunately, it is probably quite slow if you have a lot of records of a single type in memory (it uses an O(n) algorithm for interning due to being unable to access lower-level PHP internals). For most cases, it is probably still orders of magnitude faster than a database access. So, it should be fine.
