laravel-extensions
==================

[](#laravel-extensions)

Simple addon functionality classes for laravel.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

require package in your laravel installation with

```
composer require ktourvas/laravel-extensions
```

after installation the package will automatically be discovered through laravel's auto-discovery feature.

follow the above with

```
php artisan vendor:publish
```

in order for the package's configuration file to be published.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Middleware

[](#middleware)

I like to register extra middleware through the ServiceProviders of project packages and not globally and that is because I usually work with different packages in one local installation that require different functionality each and I usually don't want them to interfere with eachother. So in that case a middleware would be registered through the register() method of a Service Provider like below

```
public function register()
{
    $this->app['router']->aliasMiddleware('IpRestrict', Laravel\extensions\Http\Middleware\ipRestrict::class);
}
```

#### ipRestrict

[](#iprestrict)

the ip restriction middleware checks a request's ip address against an array of whitelisted addresses set through configuration. The array is populated from the .env variable LE\_WHITELIST. Values are separated with commas.

ex.

```
LE_WHITELIST=99.99.99.99,88.88.88.88,77.77.77.77
```

in the event of a non whitelisted address the request is aborted with a 404 response.

#### setLocale

[](#setlocale)

the set locale middleware will check for the first segment on every request's url. If the first segment corresponds to a locale set through configuration, the application locale is set to that. Again in this case locale's are set through the .env variable LE\_LOCALES

ex.

```
LE_LOCALES=en;el
```
