Laravel middleware for API versioning with multi-source resolution from headers, Accept vendor types, and URL path segments.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP 8.2+
- Laravel 11 or 12

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

[](#installation)

```
composer require philiprehberger/laravel-api-versioning
```

Laravel's package auto-discovery registers the service provider automatically.

Publish the config file:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=api-versioning-config
```

This creates `config/api-versioning.php`.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Configuration

[](#configuration)

```
// config/api-versioning.php

return [
    'supported_versions'  => ['v1', 'v2'],
    'default_version'     => 'v1',
    'latest_version'      => 'v2',
    'deprecated_versions' => [],
    'vendor_name'         => 'myapp',
    'header'              => 'X-API-Version',
    'response_headers'    => true,
];
```

### Registering the Middleware

[](#registering-the-middleware)

```
// bootstrap/app.php
->withMiddleware(function (Middleware $middleware) {
    $middleware->alias([
        'api.version' => \PhilipRehberger\ApiVersioning\ApiVersion::class,
    ]);
})
```

```
Route::middleware('api.version')->group(function () {
    // ...
});
```

### Accessing the Current Version

[](#accessing-the-current-version)

```
use PhilipRehberger\ApiVersioning\ApiVersion;

$version = ApiVersion::current($request); // e.g. 'v2'
```

### Version Resolution Priority

[](#version-resolution-priority)

1. `X-API-Version` request header
2. `Accept` header vendor type: `application/vnd.{vendor_name}.{version}+json`
3. URL path segment: `/api/{version}/...`
4. Configured default version
