Laravel0Laravel 9.30 Released | Laravel News

The Laravel team released 9.29 and 9.30 with a read-only filesystem option, a scoped filesystem driver, the ability to discard model changes, and more.

Note: we last covered Laravel 9.28.0, so this release post covers both 9.29 and 9.30.

Read-only filesystem config option

Frank de Jonge contributed to configuring a filesystem disk to operate in read-only mode. This ensures no write operations are possible on the disk, which is useful when accessing storage you want to ensure doesn’t manipulate any files.

Here’s a config example from the pull request for this feature:

1$disk = $filesystem->build([
2    'driver' => 'local',
3    'read-only' => true,
4    'root' => 'my-custom-path',
5    'url' => 'my-custom-url',
6    'visibility' => 'public',
7]);

Scoped filesystem driver

Frank de Jonge contributed scoped filesystem drivers, which enables a way to reuse disk configurations. Here’s an example from the pull request description:

 1[
 2    's3' => [
 3        'driver' => 's3',
 4        'key' => env('AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID'),
 5        'secret' => env('AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'),
 6        'region' => env('AWS_DEFAULT_REGION'),
 7        'bucket' => env('AWS_BUCKET'),
 8        'url' => env('AWS_URL'),
 9        'endpoint' => env('AWS_ENDPOINT'),
10        'use_path_style_endpoint' => env('AWS_USE_PATH_STYLE_ENDPOINT', false),
11        'throw' => false,
12    ],
13    's3_videos' => [
14        'driver' => 'scoped',
15        'prefix' => 'path/for/videos',
16        'disk' => 's3',
17    ],
18]

Add force option to all “make” commands

James Brooks contributed a --force flag to all make:* commands, which is helpful when you need to recreate a file.

“Required if accepted” validation rule

Pascal Baljet contributed a required_if_accepted validation rule which ensures the field under validation is required if another field is accepted (a value of yes, on, 1, or true):

1Validator::make([
2    'is_company'   => 'on',
3    'company_name' => 'Apple',
4], [
5    'is_company'   => 'required|boolean',
6    'company_name' => 'required_if_accepted:is_company',
7]);

Ability to discard Eloquent model changes

Mior Muhammad Zaki contributed a discardChanges() method to discard attribute changes and reset attributes to their original state:

1$user = new EloquentModelStub([
2    'name' => 'Taylor Otwell',
3]);
4 
5$user->getOriginal('name'); // null
6 
7$user->getAttribute('name'); // Taylor Otwell
8$user->discardChanges();
9$user->getAttribute('name'); // null

Determine if attachments exist

Andrew Minion contributed to determining if the given attachments are included in a mailable. Three methods were added that can help assert attachments in tests:

 1$mailable = new InvoicePaid($user);
 2 
 3// Test normal attachment.
 4$this->assertTrue(
 5    $mailable->hasAttachment('Receipt.pdf')
 6);
 7 
 8// Test attachment from storage disk.
 9$this->assertTrue(
10    $mailable->hasAttachmentFromStorageDisk('s3', 'invoices', $user->latest_invoice->name)
11);
12 
13// Test raw attachment.
14$this->assertTrue(
15    $mailable->hasAttachedData('12345', 'confirmation.txt')
16);
