Indenting persistent blade compiler
Have you ever looked at the HTML Laravel generates and wondered about the mess? That's what I want to solve with this package. As this is not going to be fixed in Laravel Framework itself I decided to make it into a package, and here it is!
The problem
An example with all replaced content types:
// app.blade.php
@push('scripts')
<stack></stack>
<stack></stack>
@endpush
<html>
<head>
@stack('scripts')
</head>
<body>
<sidebar>
@section('sidebar')
<sidebarcontent></sidebarcontent>
@show
</sidebar>
<container>
@yield('content')
</container>
</body>
</html>
// main.blade.php
@extends('example.app')
@section('sidebar')
@parent
<sidebarsectioncontent></sidebarsectioncontent>
@endsection
@section('content')
<level-1>
@include('example.include')
@includeif('example.include')
@includewhen(true, 'example.include')
@includefirst(['example.include', 'example.include'])
<level-2>
<level-3>
@each('example.include', [1,2], 'index')
</level-3>
</level-2>
@component('example.component')
@slot('title')
<title></title>
<title></title>
@endslot
<component></component>
<component></component>
@endcomponent
</level-1>
@endsection
// component.blade.php
<wrapper-component>
<wrapper-title>
{{ $title }}
</wrapper-title>
{{ $slot }}
</wrapper-component>
// include.blade.php
<include>
</include>
Results in the following HTML. What a mess, right?
<html>
<head>
<stack></stack>
<stack></stack>
</head>
<body>
<sidebar>
<sidebarcontent></sidebarcontent>
<sidebarsectioncontent></sidebarsectioncontent>
</sidebar>
<container>
<level-1>
<include>
</include> <include>
</include> <include>
</include> <include>
</include> <level-2>
<level-3>
<include>
</include><include>
</include> </level-3>
</level-2>
<wrapper-component>
<wrapper-title>
<title></title>
<title></title>
</wrapper-title>
<component></component>
<component></component>
</wrapper-component></level-1>
</container>
</body>
</html>
This package fixes that and generates the following HTML:
<html>
<head>
<stack></stack>
<stack></stack>
</head>
<body>
<sidebar>
<sidebarcontent></sidebarcontent>
<sidebarsectioncontent></sidebarsectioncontent>
</sidebar>
<container>
<level-1>
<include>
</include>
<include>
</include>
<include>
</include>
<include>
</include>
<level-2>
<level-3>
<include>
</include>
<include>
</include>
</level-3>
</level-2>
<wrapper-component>
<wrapper-title>
<title></title>
<title></title>
</wrapper-title>
<component></component>
<component></component>
</wrapper-component>
</level-1>
</container>
</body>
</html>
Setting things up
Run composer require prinsfrank/indenting-persistent-blade-compiler
Run php artisan view:clear to clear the already compiled views. Don't forget to do this when deploying to production as well, existing templates will break!
