Laravel Expert: Beyond The Basics - Mastering Advance Topics In Laravel: Laravel In-Depth: Advanced Development And Ecosystem Integration - Expert Tec

By PhiQuill Publishing

What You'll Learn

Advanced Laravel Core Concepts
- Master the Service Container with binding techniques (singletons, contextual bindings) and dependency injection best practices.
- Demystify Facades, Contracts (interfaces), and Service Providers to build decoupled, testable code.
- Optimize application architecture by combining the container, providers, and Laravel's core patterns.

Asynchronous Programming & Real-Time Systems
- Build event-driven applications using Laravel Events, including queued listeners, subscribers, and framework events.
- Implement queued jobs with Horizon for background processing, job chaining, rate limiting, and error handling.
- Create real-time features with WebSocket broadcasting (Pusher/Ably/Redis) and integrate Laravel Echo for client-side updates.

Automation & Monitoring
- Schedule tasks efficiently using Laravel's Cron-like scheduler, with overlap prevention and multi-server support.
- Debug and monitor apps using Laravel Telescope to track requests, jobs, exceptions, database queries, and more.

Package Development
- Build reusable Laravel packages, including service providers, configuration, migrations, and Artisan commands.
- Test and publish packages to Packagist while following Laravel conventions and best practices.

Secure API Development
- Authenticate APIs with Laravel Sanctum (SPAs, mobile apps) and Passport (OAuth2 server).
- Implement token-based authentication, scopes, grant types (Authorization Code, Client Credentials), and secure token handling.

Production-Ready Techniques
- Scale queues with Horizon's metrics, tags, and balancing strategies.
- Secure real-time channels with authorization callbacks and WebSocket encryption.
- Monitor and prune Telescope data in production while balancing performance.

Best Practices
- Design idempotent jobs, lightweight scheduled tasks, and event-driven workflows.
- Apply Laravel's "sharp edges" for dependency injection, testing Facades, and avoiding common pitfalls.
