Installation ------------ [](#installation) You can install the package via composer: ``` composer require kudashevs/laravel-last-modified ``` Then, register the middleware in the `app/Http/Kernel.php`: ``` protected $middleware = [ 'web' => [ ... \Kudashevs\LaravelLastModified\Middleware\LastModified::class, ], ]; ``` You may also want to publish the configuration file (optional). ``` php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Kudashevs\LaravelLastModified\Providers\LastModifiedServiceProvider" ``` After deploying your application, check whether [the headers are handled correctly](https://en.web-tool.org/check-last-modified/). How it works ------------ [](#how-it-works) First, the middleware identifies the last modification time of a given url by parsing the request. It tries to retrieve this information from possible origins in the following order (if it cannot retrieve the information, it moves forward): - a first model in the view data, - a first collection in the view data, - a first paginator in the view data, - a compiled view file, - a view file, - as a last resort, a fallback. After the last modification time has been retrieved, the middleware sets the `Last-Modified` response header. Then, it handles the `If-Modified-Since` request header using the last modification time from the previous step. Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) After [publishing](#installation), the configuration settings are located in the `config/last-modified.php` file. There configuration options are currently supported: ``` 'enable' # A boolean defines whether the middleware is enabled (default `true`). 'aggressive' # A boolean defines whether the middleware returns a response immediately (default is `false`). 'fallback' # An integer the fallback timestamp for the Last-Modifier header. 'origins' # An array with a list of origins of the last modification time. 'exclude' # An array with a list of paths to be excluded from processing. ``` , for more information please see the [configuration](config/last-modified.php) file. Testing ------- [](#testing) ``` composer test ``` References ---------- [](#references) - [RFC 7232: HTTP/1.1 Conditional Requests](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7232#section-3.3) - [MDN If-Modified-Since](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/If-Modified-Since) Contributing ------------ [](#contributing) Pull requests are welcome.
