# Laravel Boost Guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
The Laravel Boost guidelines are specifically curated by Laravel maintainers for this application. These guidelines should be followed closely to enhance the user's satisfaction building Laravel applications.
|
||||
|
||||
## Foundational Context
|
||||
This application is a Laravel application and its main Laravel ecosystems package & versions are below. You are an expert with them all. Ensure you abide by these specific packages & versions.
|
||||
|
||||
- php - 8.4.7
|
||||
- laravel/fortify (FORTIFY) - v1
|
||||
- laravel/framework (LARAVEL) - v12
|
||||
- laravel/horizon (HORIZON) - v5
|
||||
- laravel/prompts (PROMPTS) - v0
|
||||
- laravel/sanctum (SANCTUM) - v4
|
||||
- laravel/socialite (SOCIALITE) - v5
|
||||
- livewire/livewire (LIVEWIRE) - v3
|
||||
- laravel/dusk (DUSK) - v8
|
||||
- laravel/pint (PINT) - v1
|
||||
- laravel/telescope (TELESCOPE) - v5
|
||||
- pestphp/pest (PEST) - v3
|
||||
- phpunit/phpunit (PHPUNIT) - v11
|
||||
- rector/rector (RECTOR) - v2
|
||||
- laravel-echo (ECHO) - v2
|
||||
- tailwindcss (TAILWINDCSS) - v4
|
||||
- vue (VUE) - v3
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Conventions
|
||||
- You must follow all existing code conventions used in this application. When creating or editing a file, check sibling files for the correct structure, approach, naming.
|
||||
- Use descriptive names for variables and methods. For example, `isRegisteredForDiscounts`, not `discount()`.
|
||||
- Check for existing components to reuse before writing a new one.
|
||||
|
||||
## Verification Scripts
|
||||
- Do not create verification scripts or tinker when tests cover that functionality and prove it works. Unit and feature tests are more important.
|
||||
|
||||
## Application Structure & Architecture
|
||||
- Stick to existing directory structure - don't create new base folders without approval.
|
||||
- Do not change the application's dependencies without approval.
|
||||
|
||||
## Frontend Bundling
|
||||
- If the user doesn't see a frontend change reflected in the UI, it could mean they need to run `npm run build`, `npm run dev`, or `composer run dev`. Ask them.
|
||||
|
||||
## Replies
|
||||
- Be concise in your explanations - focus on what's important rather than explaining obvious details.
|
||||
|
||||
## Documentation Files
|
||||
- You must only create documentation files if explicitly requested by the user.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== boost rules ===
|
||||
|
||||
## Laravel Boost
|
||||
- Laravel Boost is an MCP server that comes with powerful tools designed specifically for this application. Use them.
|
||||
|
||||
## Artisan
|
||||
- Use the `list-artisan-commands` tool when you need to call an Artisan command to double check the available parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
## URLs
|
||||
- Whenever you share a project URL with the user you should use the `get-absolute-url` tool to ensure you're using the correct scheme, domain / IP, and port.
|
||||
|
||||
## Tinker / Debugging
|
||||
- You should use the `tinker` tool when you need to execute PHP to debug code or query Eloquent models directly.
|
||||
- Use the `database-query` tool when you only need to read from the database.
|
||||
|
||||
## Reading Browser Logs With the `browser-logs` Tool
|
||||
- You can read browser logs, errors, and exceptions using the `browser-logs` tool from Boost.
|
||||
- Only recent browser logs will be useful - ignore old logs.
|
||||
|
||||
## Searching Documentation (Critically Important)
|
||||
- Boost comes with a powerful `search-docs` tool you should use before any other approaches. This tool automatically passes a list of installed packages and their versions to the remote Boost API, so it returns only version-specific documentation specific for the user's circumstance. You should pass an array of packages to filter on if you know you need docs for particular packages.
|
||||
- The 'search-docs' tool is perfect for all Laravel related packages, including Laravel, Inertia, Livewire, Filament, Tailwind, Pest, Nova, Nightwatch, etc.
|
||||
- You must use this tool to search for Laravel-ecosystem documentation before falling back to other approaches.
|
||||
- Search the documentation before making code changes to ensure we are taking the correct approach.
|
||||
- Use multiple, broad, simple, topic based queries to start. For example: `['rate limiting', 'routing rate limiting', 'routing']`.
|
||||
- Do not add package names to queries - package information is already shared. For example, use `test resource table`, not `filament 4 test resource table`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Available Search Syntax
|
||||
- You can and should pass multiple queries at once. The most relevant results will be returned first.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Simple Word Searches with auto-stemming - query=authentication - finds 'authenticate' and 'auth'
|
||||
2. Multiple Words (AND Logic) - query=rate limit - finds knowledge containing both "rate" AND "limit"
|
||||
3. Quoted Phrases (Exact Position) - query="infinite scroll" - Words must be adjacent and in that order
|
||||
4. Mixed Queries - query=middleware "rate limit" - "middleware" AND exact phrase "rate limit"
|
||||
5. Multiple Queries - queries=["authentication", "middleware"] - ANY of these terms
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== php rules ===
|
||||
|
||||
## PHP
|
||||
|
||||
- Always use curly braces for control structures, even if it has one line.
|
||||
|
||||
### Constructors
|
||||
- Use PHP 8 constructor property promotion in `__construct()`.
|
||||
- <code-snippet>public function __construct(public GitHub $github) { }</code-snippet>
|
||||
- Do not allow empty `__construct()` methods with zero parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
### Type Declarations
|
||||
- Always use explicit return type declarations for methods and functions.
|
||||
- Use appropriate PHP type hints for method parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
<code-snippet name="Explicit Return Types and Method Params" lang="php">
|
||||
protected function isAccessible(User $user, ?string $path = null): bool
|
||||
{
|
||||
...
|
||||
}
|
||||
</code-snippet>
|
||||
|
||||
## Comments
|
||||
- Prefer PHPDoc blocks over comments. Never use comments within the code itself unless there is something _very_ complex going on.
|
||||
|
||||
## PHPDoc Blocks
|
||||
- Add useful array shape type definitions for arrays when appropriate.
|
||||
|
||||
## Enums
|
||||
- Typically, keys in an Enum should be TitleCase. For example: `FavoritePerson`, `BestLake`, `Monthly`.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== laravel/core rules ===
|
||||
|
||||
## Do Things the Laravel Way
|
||||
|
||||
- Use `php artisan make:` commands to create new files (i.e. migrations, controllers, models, etc.). You can list available Artisan commands using the `list-artisan-commands` tool.
|
||||
- If you're creating a generic PHP class, use `artisan make:class`.
|
||||
- Pass `--no-interaction` to all Artisan commands to ensure they work without user input. You should also pass the correct `--options` to ensure correct behavior.
|
||||
|
||||
### Database
|
||||
- Always use proper Eloquent relationship methods with return type hints. Prefer relationship methods over raw queries or manual joins.
|
||||
- Use Eloquent models and relationships before suggesting raw database queries
|
||||
- Avoid `DB::`; prefer `Model::query()`. Generate code that leverages Laravel's ORM capabilities rather than bypassing them.
|
||||
- Generate code that prevents N+1 query problems by using eager loading.
|
||||
- Use Laravel's query builder for very complex database operations.
|
||||
|
||||
### Model Creation
|
||||
- When creating new models, create useful factories and seeders for them too. Ask the user if they need any other things, using `list-artisan-commands` to check the available options to `php artisan make:model`.
|
||||
|
||||
### APIs & Eloquent Resources
|
||||
- For APIs, default to using Eloquent API Resources and API versioning unless existing API routes do not, then you should follow existing application convention.
|
||||
|
||||
### Controllers & Validation
|
||||
- Always create Form Request classes for validation rather than inline validation in controllers. Include both validation rules and custom error messages.
|
||||
- Check sibling Form Requests to see if the application uses array or string based validation rules.
|
||||
|
||||
### Queues
|
||||
- Use queued jobs for time-consuming operations with the `ShouldQueue` interface.
|
||||
|
||||
### Authentication & Authorization
|
||||
- Use Laravel's built-in authentication and authorization features (gates, policies, Sanctum, etc.).
|
||||
|
||||
### URL Generation
|
||||
- When generating links to other pages, prefer named routes and the `route()` function.
|
||||
|
||||
### Configuration
|
||||
- Use environment variables only in configuration files - never use the `env()` function directly outside of config files. Always use `config('app.name')`, not `env('APP_NAME')`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Testing
|
||||
- When creating models for tests, use the factories for the models. Check if the factory has custom states that can be used before manually setting up the model.
|
||||
- Faker: Use methods such as `$this->faker->word()` or `fake()->randomDigit()`. Follow existing conventions whether to use `$this->faker` or `fake()`.
|
||||
- When creating tests, make use of `php artisan make:test [options] <name>` to create a feature test, and pass `--unit` to create a unit test. Most tests should be feature tests.
|
||||
|
||||
### Vite Error
|
||||
- If you receive an "Illuminate\Foundation\ViteException: Unable to locate file in Vite manifest" error, you can run `npm run build` or ask the user to run `npm run dev` or `composer run dev`.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== laravel/v12 rules ===
|
||||
|
||||
## Laravel 12
|
||||
|
||||
- Use the `search-docs` tool to get version specific documentation.
|
||||
- This project upgraded from Laravel 10 without migrating to the new streamlined Laravel file structure.
|
||||
- This is **perfectly fine** and recommended by Laravel. Follow the existing structure from Laravel 10. We do not to need migrate to the new Laravel structure unless the user explicitly requests that.
|
||||
|
||||
### Laravel 10 Structure
|
||||
- Middleware typically lives in `app/Http/Middleware/` and service providers in `app/Providers/`.
|
||||
- There is no `bootstrap/app.php` application configuration in a Laravel 10 structure:
|
||||
- Middleware registration happens in `app/Http/Kernel.php`
|
||||
- Exception handling is in `app/Exceptions/Handler.php`
|
||||
- Console commands and schedule register in `app/Console/Kernel.php`
|
||||
- Rate limits likely exist in `RouteServiceProvider` or `app/Http/Kernel.php`
|
||||
|
||||
### Database
|
||||
- When modifying a column, the migration must include all of the attributes that were previously defined on the column. Otherwise, they will be dropped and lost.
|
||||
- Laravel 11 allows limiting eagerly loaded records natively, without external packages: `$query->latest()->limit(10);`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Models
|
||||
- Casts can and likely should be set in a `casts()` method on a model rather than the `$casts` property. Follow existing conventions from other models.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== livewire/core rules ===
|
||||
|
||||
## Livewire Core
|
||||
- Use the `search-docs` tool to find exact version specific documentation for how to write Livewire & Livewire tests.
|
||||
- Use the `php artisan make:livewire [Posts\\CreatePost]` artisan command to create new components
|
||||
- State should live on the server, with the UI reflecting it.
|
||||
- All Livewire requests hit the Laravel backend, they're like regular HTTP requests. Always validate form data, and run authorization checks in Livewire actions.
|
||||
|
||||
## Livewire Best Practices
|
||||
- Livewire components require a single root element.
|
||||
- Use `wire:loading` and `wire:dirty` for delightful loading states.
|
||||
- Add `wire:key` in loops:
|
||||
|
||||
```blade
|
||||
@foreach ($items as $item)
|
||||
<div wire:key="item-{{ $item->id }}">
|
||||
{{ $item->name }}
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
@endforeach
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- Prefer lifecycle hooks like `mount()`, `updatedFoo()`) for initialization and reactive side effects:
|
||||
|
||||
<code-snippet name="Lifecycle hook examples" lang="php">
|
||||
public function mount(User $user) { $this->user = $user; }
|
||||
public function updatedSearch() { $this->resetPage(); }
|
||||
</code-snippet>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing Livewire
|
||||
|
||||
<code-snippet name="Example Livewire component test" lang="php">
|
||||
Livewire::test(Counter::class)
|
||||
->assertSet('count', 0)
|
||||
->call('increment')
|
||||
->assertSet('count', 1)
|
||||
->assertSee(1)
|
||||
->assertStatus(200);
|
||||
</code-snippet>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<code-snippet name="Testing a Livewire component exists within a page" lang="php">
|
||||
$this->get('/posts/create')
|
||||
->assertSeeLivewire(CreatePost::class);
|
||||
</code-snippet>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== livewire/v3 rules ===
|
||||
|
||||
## Livewire 3
|
||||
|
||||
### Key Changes From Livewire 2
|
||||
- These things changed in Livewire 2, but may not have been updated in this application. Verify this application's setup to ensure you conform with application conventions.
|
||||
- Use `wire:model.live` for real-time updates, `wire:model` is now deferred by default.
|
||||
- Components now use the `App\Livewire` namespace (not `App\Http\Livewire`).
|
||||
- Use `$this->dispatch()` to dispatch events (not `emit` or `dispatchBrowserEvent`).
|
||||
- Use the `components.layouts.app` view as the typical layout path (not `layouts.app`).
|
||||
|
||||
### New Directives
|
||||
- `wire:show`, `wire:transition`, `wire:cloak`, `wire:offline`, `wire:target` are available for use. Use the documentation to find usage examples.
|
||||
|
||||
### Alpine
|
||||
- Alpine is now included with Livewire, don't manually include Alpine.js.
|
||||
- Plugins included with Alpine: persist, intersect, collapse, and focus.
|
||||
|
||||
### Lifecycle Hooks
|
||||
- You can listen for `livewire:init` to hook into Livewire initialization, and `fail.status === 419` for the page expiring:
|
||||
|
||||
<code-snippet name="livewire:load example" lang="js">
|
||||
document.addEventListener('livewire:init', function () {
|
||||
Livewire.hook('request', ({ fail }) => {
|
||||
if (fail && fail.status === 419) {
|
||||
alert('Your session expired');
|
||||
}
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
Livewire.hook('message.failed', (message, component) => {
|
||||
console.error(message);
|
||||
});
|
||||
});
|
||||
</code-snippet>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== pint/core rules ===
|
||||
|
||||
## Laravel Pint Code Formatter
|
||||
|
||||
- You must run `vendor/bin/pint --dirty` before finalizing changes to ensure your code matches the project's expected style.
|
||||
- Do not run `vendor/bin/pint --test`, simply run `vendor/bin/pint` to fix any formatting issues.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== pest/core rules ===
|
||||
|
||||
## Pest
|
||||
|
||||
### Testing
|
||||
- If you need to verify a feature is working, write or update a Unit / Feature test.
|
||||
|
||||
### Pest Tests
|
||||
- All tests must be written using Pest. Use `php artisan make:test --pest <name>`.
|
||||
- You must not remove any tests or test files from the tests directory without approval. These are not temporary or helper files - these are core to the application.
|
||||
- Tests should test all of the happy paths, failure paths, and weird paths.
|
||||
- Tests live in the `tests/Feature` and `tests/Unit` directories.
|
||||
- Pest tests look and behave like this:
|
||||
<code-snippet name="Basic Pest Test Example" lang="php">
|
||||
it('is true', function () {
|
||||
expect(true)->toBeTrue();
|
||||
});
|
||||
</code-snippet>
|
||||
|
||||
### Running Tests
|
||||
- Run the minimal number of tests using an appropriate filter before finalizing code edits.
|
||||
- To run all tests: `php artisan test`.
|
||||
- To run all tests in a file: `php artisan test tests/Feature/ExampleTest.php`.
|
||||
- To filter on a particular test name: `php artisan test --filter=testName` (recommended after making a change to a related file).
|
||||
- When the tests relating to your changes are passing, ask the user if they would like to run the entire test suite to ensure everything is still passing.
|
||||
|
||||
### Pest Assertions
|
||||
- When asserting status codes on a response, use the specific method like `assertForbidden` and `assertNotFound` instead of using `assertStatus(403)` or similar, e.g.:
|
||||
<code-snippet name="Pest Example Asserting postJson Response" lang="php">
|
||||
it('returns all', function () {
|
||||
$response = $this->postJson('/api/docs', []);
|
||||
|
||||
$response->assertSuccessful();
|
||||
});
|
||||
</code-snippet>
|
||||
|
||||
### Mocking
|
||||
- Mocking can be very helpful when appropriate.
|
||||
- When mocking, you can use the `Pest\Laravel\mock` Pest function, but always import it via `use function Pest\Laravel\mock;` before using it. Alternatively, you can use `$this->mock()` if existing tests do.
|
||||
- You can also create partial mocks using the same import or self method.
|
||||
|
||||
### Datasets
|
||||
- Use datasets in Pest to simplify tests which have a lot of duplicated data. This is often the case when testing validation rules, so consider going with this solution when writing tests for validation rules.
|
||||
|
||||
<code-snippet name="Pest Dataset Example" lang="php">
|
||||
it('has emails', function (string $email) {
|
||||
expect($email)->not->toBeEmpty();
|
||||
})->with([
|
||||
'james' => 'james@laravel.com',
|
||||
'taylor' => 'taylor@laravel.com',
|
||||
]);
|
||||
</code-snippet>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== tailwindcss/core rules ===
|
||||
|
||||
## Tailwind Core
|
||||
|
||||
- Use Tailwind CSS classes to style HTML, check and use existing tailwind conventions within the project before writing your own.
|
||||
- Offer to extract repeated patterns into components that match the project's conventions (i.e. Blade, JSX, Vue, etc..)
|
||||
- Think through class placement, order, priority, and defaults - remove redundant classes, add classes to parent or child carefully to limit repetition, group elements logically
|
||||
- You can use the `search-docs` tool to get exact examples from the official documentation when needed.
|
||||
|
||||
### Spacing
|
||||
- When listing items, use gap utilities for spacing, don't use margins.
|
||||
|
||||
<code-snippet name="Valid Flex Gap Spacing Example" lang="html">
|
||||
<div class="flex gap-8">
|
||||
<div>Superior</div>
|
||||
<div>Michigan</div>
|
||||
<div>Erie</div>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
</code-snippet>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Dark Mode
|
||||
- If existing pages and components support dark mode, new pages and components must support dark mode in a similar way, typically using `dark:`.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== tailwindcss/v4 rules ===
|
||||
|
||||
## Tailwind 4
|
||||
|
||||
- Always use Tailwind CSS v4 - do not use the deprecated utilities.
|
||||
- `corePlugins` is not supported in Tailwind v4.
|
||||
- In Tailwind v4, you import Tailwind using a regular CSS `@import` statement, not using the `@tailwind` directives used in v3:
|
||||
|
||||
<code-snippet name="Tailwind v4 Import Tailwind Diff" lang="diff"
|
||||
- @tailwind base;
|
||||
- @tailwind components;
|
||||
- @tailwind utilities;
|
||||
+ @import "tailwindcss";
|
||||
</code-snippet>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Replaced Utilities
|
||||
- Tailwind v4 removed deprecated utilities. Do not use the deprecated option - use the replacement.
|
||||
- Opacity values are still numeric.
|
||||
|
||||
| Deprecated | Replacement |
|
||||
|------------+--------------|
|
||||

|
||||
| text-opacity-* | text-black/* |
|
||||
| border-opacity-* | border-black/* |

|
||||
| decoration-clone | box-decoration-clone |
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== tests rules ===
|
||||
|
||||
## Test Enforcement
|
||||
|
||||
- Every change must be programmatically tested. Write a new test or update an existing test, then run the affected tests to make sure they pass.
|
||||
- Run the minimum number of tests needed to ensure code quality and speed. Use `php artisan test` with a specific filename or filter.
