Tip: "Don't use Rails"

[@user-if1ps7oo4b]

i love this tips make me learn new things, most likely i will forget them again but i know where to come when need remember something

[@MichalKuzmicki]

The "tell, don't ask" example is more about two things: declarative programming; and a bit about separating the domain of the code - instead of creating some extended logic in the code, that is not the domain of the lessons (let's say a code for singing in, more about the participant, than the lesson itself), I prefer to create logic of the lesson in the lesson class/domain, and allow other domains to have minimal contact with this logic. Thanks to that when debugging such a code - you won't be surprised by an "alien" code.

This is a DARN GOOD tradition, thank you!

[@_plamp_]

Awesome these are nice to know

[@saravanasai2391]

Wow, that is a great share. Hi chief, I would suggest you make a video related to event-sourcing in Laravel. What are the real-world use cases? A simple explanation that everyone can understand.

[@LaravelDaily]

I haven't used it myself, so can't explain to others :)

[@rainfog_mzb]

1:32 Before using to_route(), I usually confuse (how to redirect with route) without looking documentation

[@JamesAutoDude]

Another thing is making utilities instead of helpers. Game changer 😮

[@elmalleable]

What's the difference?

[@holacuba2001]

Hello Povilas, would have a tip for a redirect with string data?
Within a method I sometimes must redirect to another route, with a string value as parameter.
The documentation says do this:
return redirect()->route('profile', ['id' => 1]);
and it works perfectly. Except that my parameter is a string and the URL looks ulgly because the paramater gets passed as a GET.
Is there a fix for that?

[@LaravelDaily]

Not sure, maybe you defined the route the wrong way? I haven't encountered this issue.

[@holacuba2001]

@@LaravelDaily Please try the eample from the book, but with a string parameter (a sentence). As I said, evrything works fine but the URL is ugly.

[@LaravelDaily]

Sorry, I don't have time to try, could you post the code of your profile route from the routes file?

[@digitzero3613]

What's the point of disabling lazy loading? I though Laravel guys recommend it.

[@LaravelDaily]

Enforcing EAGER loading, to avoid N+1 query problem.

[@digitzero3613]

@@LaravelDaily Ohh excuse me, I am so bad with these terms. I was actually thinking about eager loading but didn't realize that lazy loading is different. Thank you!
