Laravel 5.7 features and updates What's new. Laravel 5.7 has some new cool features as well as several other improvements and bug fixes. We discuss some of the noticeable changes and some of the new additions to the Laravel 5.7 family.
2. INTRODUCTION
Laravel is a popular and open-source PHP framework
and it arrived approximately seven years ago in June
2012. Since then it is the most scalable PHP framework
for web application development. It is based on the
Model View Controller (MVC) architecture. The Laravel
version 5.6 came this year in February. Later on, the
latest variant Laravel 5.7 was in the market in August
2018. It is noted that the major or minor launching has
been mostly done within six months. On the other
hand, the small releases are made approximately
every week.
3. LARAVEL 5.7 FEATURES
Every version has been enhanced and improved from the other previous
versions. The Laravel 5.7 is better than its previous version 5.6. In fact, the
number of cool features is also introduced with this new variant. Now,
let’s have a brief tour of this new version’s important features.
• Laravel Nova
• Verifying the Email
• Guest User Gates
• Notification Localization
4. LARAVEL NOVA
As Taylor Otwell said, ‘We have sweat the small details and carefully crafted the Nova to not only look good but to be a joy to
work with it.’ Is The Nova a CMS? Well, Answer to that question is a big No. One need to purchase the license for this package
for the enterprise plan. Laravel Nova has a number of pre-requisite packages before the installation:
• Composer
• Node and npm package
• Laravel Framework 5.6+
• Laravel Mix
When all the requirements are Okay, one can proceed with the installation of the Nova from the release section. However,
purchasing the license is a must.
Nova is a wonderfully designed admin dashboard for
Laravel Developers. Laravel Nova is indeed a very important
and remarkable package. Furthermore, it is a totally
amazing administrative panel for Laravel Development. The
admin panel is driven by a single piece of code when a
developer is working on an existing brand new project. The
Laravel 5.6 version is also supporting the Nova in form of the
single package.
5. VERIFYING THE E-MAIL
With the release of Laravel 5.7, we have access to all new features known as
Email verification. However, you can count the email with the migration
features with the framework. In addition, if the third party wanted to have
access to the Email Verification, one need to interface it with the User Model.
In the current situation, it has been a desperate need to have validated user
emails. Also, we have seamlessly implemented the feature on each
application.
The Laravel 5.7 entered with Email verification that is configured splendidly to
validate Email Addresses.
6. GUEST USER GATES
In the laravel 5.6, generally, the application access was disabled for unauthorized users as the Laravel PHP framework was
returned false. Gates always get a user instance from the first argument, and there are many available options gets
additional arguments in form of relevant models. But now, Laravel 5.7 provides an optional type hits to allow other users to
pass the authentification checks by using the specific nullable type hint within the specified controller as shown in Image.
One can also define more than one Gate abilities at one go using the resource method. When it comes to Intercepting gate
checks, everyone wishes to grant all the abilities to the specific user or users. For that one has to use the ‘before’ method to
set a call back that will run priory to all other authorization checks. Furthermore, one can use the ‘after’ method to set a call
back to be executed right after each authorization check.
7. NOTIFICATION LOCALIZATION
Laravel PHP Framework is allowing us to send notifications in any language. And this can be achieved by
adding the ‘locale’ method and which is now available in Laravel 5.7. In addition, to support sending
the notifications for different delivery channels, that includes Slack as well. Those will be displayed in a
database so they can be displayed in the web interface.
The notification by nature has to be short and contain meaningful data that notify users about
something very important or provide brief about the content that was shared. For instance, If the bill was
paid online as user supposed to be notified using the SMS notification - It should contain information such
as - ‘the payment is successful’. With the release of the Laravel 5.7, we are now able to get permission to
send the notifications in form of the current language.
In fact, this framework will be more familiar with the locale, even if the notification has been qued.
Whenever you format the notification, the application was converted into current language and once
the formation is complete. It was sent back to the previous locale.
In the above shard information, we had a brief glance at the new features of Laravel 5.7. For more
information stay tuned with our further updates on the Laravel framework.
8. CONCLUSION
Finally, we can to the end, and from here we can
clearly see that what is new in the Laravel 5.7 as
some of the very important features has been
added. This certainly makes the whole task of Web
application development much easier. On the
other hand, it is much advisable that we have to
choose the framework and its components very
precisely and according to the needs. Our Talented
Laravel Developers are highly experienced and well
worsed with all kind of web app development using
latest technologies and trends.
