**Search terms:** laravel, redis, distributed-locks, concurrency, mutex, php, laravel-package, locking, cache-lock, jobs.

Safe distributed locking helpers for Laravel: `with()`, owner-aware cache locks, HTTP middleware, and queue `WithoutOverlapping`.

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

[](#installation)

```
composer require mohamedhekal/lockguard
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=lockguard-config
```

Quick start
-----------

[](#quick-start)

```
use Hekal\LockGuard\Facades\LockGuard;

LockGuard::with('inventory:sku-1', function () {
    // exclusive critical section
});
```

HTTP:

```
Route::middleware('lockguard:checkout:session,15')->post('/checkout', ...);
```

Queue:

```
public function middleware(): array
{
    return [new \Hekal\LockGuard\Support\WithoutOverlapping('sync:tenant-1')];
}
```

Notes
-----

[](#notes)

- Uses Laravel cache locks. Prefer Redis in production.
- `default_wait_seconds=0` means fail fast (throw) when the lock is busy.
- This is not Redlock multi-node consensus; it is a practical Laravel lock layer.

Testing
-------

[](#testing)

```
composer install && composer test
```
