Why --dump-sql still outputs sql despite being executed?

In the server I've run:

```
$ php bin/console doctrine:schema:update --force

Updating database schema...

93 queries were executed

[OK\] Database schema updated successfully!
```

But once I executed the sql above once I run:

```
$ php bin/console doctrine:schema:update --dump-sql | head

ALTER TABLE xxx1 CHANGE expires_at expires_at DATETIME DEFAULT NULL, CHANGE created_at created_at DATETIME DEFAULT NULL, CHANGE updated_at updated_at DATETIME DEFAULT NULL;

ALTER TABLE xx2 CHANGE name name VARCHAR(255) DEFAULT NULL, CHANGE created_at created_at DATETIME DEFAULT NULL, CHANGE updated_at updated_at DATETIME DEFAULT NULL, CHANGE unique_identifier unique_identifier VARCHAR(255) DEFAULT NULL;

ALTER TABLE xx3 CHANGE denoscription denoscription VARCHAR(255) DEFAULT NULL, CHANGE created_at created_at DATETIME DEFAULT NULL, CHANGE updated_at updated_at DATETIME DEFAULT NULL, CHANGE deleted_at deleted_at DATETIME DEFAULT NULL, CHANGE unique_identifier unique_identifier VARCHAR(255) DEFAULT NULL;

.....

```

Even if I execute manually:

```
LTER TABLE xxx1 CHANGE expires_at expires_at DATETIME DEFAULT NULL, CHANGE created_at created_at DATETIME DEFAULT NULL, CHANGE updated_at updated_at DATETIME DEFAULT NULL;
```

`doctrine:schema:update` would output it once more why???

Would like to get some feedback on my first Symfony project!

Hey everyone, I wanted to learn symfony so I started working on a toy project - a self hosted filesystem app (like gdrive). It exposes an API for authentication and CRUD operations on files. I also used twig to build a small admin dashboard UI.

Need to mention, the project is not yet finished, I need to add a file sharing option and possibly some tests, and maybe the fronted (though the frontend is irrelevant for this), but it is a good time to get other's opinion on this.

I would love to get some feedback, especially on API design, security/authentication flow. Also this is the first time I used docker so I would appreciate some pointers for this too (are the containers structured well, is it good for easy self hosting?)

Also what improvements could I make to the project?

Thanks!

The project is available on github. Api docs is here

Been seeing more PHP gigs out there.

It seems like PHP gigs are coming out of hiding. This leads me to think of a great marketing slogan PHP:

PHP is like a Volvo or a Honda.... it's not sexy, but it is reliable, affordable, and it delivers what you need when you need it.

Testing API's

Do you run tests against real APIs? If not, how do you usually check that the API is actually working in the tests, do you mock it, recreate the logic, or rely on something else?

[Show & Tell] Larabuild – AI-powered Blade + Tailwind playground for Laravel developers

I’ve relaunched [Larabuild](https://larabuild.com), a side project I originally built as a “v0.dev-style” tool, but focused on Laravel + Livewire.

The idea is to save time when you’re an engineer who isn’t a designer: you describe what you want to build, and Larabuild generates **clean Blade + Tailwind v4 components** you can drop straight into your app.

What makes it different from generic AI UI tools:

* **Blade logic, not just HTML** – it generates loops, conditionals, and `@php $sample_data` blocks so you can see how your components will behave.
* **Two outputs** – • `generated_code`: the real Blade + Tailwind you can copy into your project. • `preview_code`: a safe, static HTML preview with sample data (no PHP execution).
* **Security first** – previews are sandboxed with a strict CSP and sanitisation (no noscripts, env/config/db calls, or other server-side access).
* **Project organisation** – give the AI context and keep generations grouped together.
* **Coming soon** – set brand colours/typography once and get consistent designs across components.
* **Learning Resource** \- It will eventually have a learning mode, teaching you best practices, rather than just throwing code at you.

Access:

* No signup required: 10 free prompts to try it immediately.
* Free account: 100 prompts each month.
* No paywall right now — just exploring whether this is something the community finds useful.

Would love to hear your feedback and impressions.

We are modernizing the i18n workflow for PHP, what are your thoughts?

Hi everyone, we are currently developing a new SDK for i18n in PHP. I know what you are thinking, existing solutions like gettext are great, but... I believe PHP deserves more modern features.

The main idea is to let frontend and backend work together in a fashion mainly utilized in modern JS frameworks like next.js, where data is hydrated on the frontend. This means that data can be encoded in the backend and decoded on the frontend which could enable advanced features like In-context editor (edit translations directly on the rendered page), something PHP i18n lacks today.

What we've done so far:
- Everything from gettext, pluralization, variables etc.
- Language detection, cookie, headers, meta data, query params etc.
- In-context editing - Let your contributors edit rendered translations directly on the site.
- Automatic rerender on locale change. (With or without page reload)
- Support for both static translation files in your project, or offloading to our CDN powered by Cloudflare. If you use the CDN, a translations edit will never force you to redeploy any code.
- If CDN is used, we utilize a local cache with SWR to always have the latest translations without compromising speed.
- Lazy loading, only load languages needed.
- If you are using our external platform you'd get glossary, tasks, AI translations, screenshots and much more. But I want to stress that this is optional.
- (Optional language picker)

Do you have any other ideas or input on what would be helpful in the localization process?
