  Project mention: New in Laravel 8.80 - Route::controller() | dev.to | 2022-01-20

  A great thing has been added in Laravel 8.80, https://github.com/laravel/framework/pull/40276 which is the use of Route::controller() with Groups to shorten Route, so I want to share it with you so that you may use it in your next projects.

• Guzzle

  5 21,440 7.0 PHP

  Guzzle, an extensible PHP HTTP client

  

  Project mention: Composer conflict, how can we use it? | dev.to | 2021-11-19

  We found the related issue on the Guzzle GitHub repository and we noticed a fix had been released with version 6.3 of this library. Hurray, we can bump Guzzle version to 6.3 and overcome the problem! But looking at BehatPageObjectExtension’s composer.json we’ve soon realized that Guzzle isn’t a direct dependency managed by us. “It’s not a big deal” I thought as Guzzle was required by Goutte and we require Goutte through its Mink driver,so I expected to find some tagged version of Goutte and the Mink Driver with this requirements bump. Sadly I found it wasn’t the case as Guzzle is required in Goutte with ^6.0 (so, basically every version between 6 and 7) and this includes the versions with the warning described above. Therefore in our case the warning was displayed as a “side effect” of deps=low that requires indirectly Guzzle 6.0 as is the lowest dependency accepted.

  Project mention: Handling unavailable log file | reddit.com/r/laravel | 2022-01-10

  Laravel uses Monolog to handle logging, which comes with a variety of handlers. One is the WhatFailureGroupHandler which will ignore any errors thrown by a child handler – you would wrap the RotatingLogHandler in this group handler to achieve this.

  Project mention: Want to access a controller variable in config.php file in Codeigniter 3 | reddit.com/r/codeigniter | 2021-08-29

  Could you care to elaborate on the "CI3 is dangerously out of date" statement? What exactly makes it dangerous? The last version (3.1.11) was released in 2019, and until version 4.1 a few months ago, CI3 was still the current stable version. According to codeigniter.com, "This version is in maintenance, receiving mostly just security update".
