README

Enables the following configurable eloquent "strict mode" features:

• Prevent Lazy Loading (N+1)
  • Non-production: Throws an Illuminate\Database\LazyLoadingViolationException exception
  • Production: Writes a warning into the logs
• Prevent defaulting to NULL when using a model's attribute that hasn't been fetched from the DB or doesn't exist on the model
  • Throws an Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\MissingAttributeException exception (all environments)
  • Alternatively: You can set the config to write a warning to the log
• Prevent loosing attributes when creating or updating models because of missing attributes in the $fillable array
  • Throws an Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\MassAssignmentException exception (all environments)
  • Alternatively: You can set the config to write a warning to the log

Enables the following configurable safety methods:

• Long-running command monitoring
  • Writes a warning into the logs including the command name, user and duration which took longer than the specified threshold (default: 5000ms)
• Long-running requests monitoring
  • Writes a warning into the logs including the request url, user and duration which took longer than the specified threshold (default: 5000ms)
• Long-running single DB query monitoring
  • Writes an info into the logs including the SQL query and duration which took longer than the specified threshold (default: 1000ms)
• Long-running DB connection monitoring
  • Writes an info into the logs including the DB connection name which took longer than the specified threshold (default: 2000ms)
• Memory Heap Size monitoring
  • Writes a warning into the logs including when the memory heap size exceeds the specified threshold (default: 50MB)

Installation

Laravel Version ^10.0 required.

You can install the package via composer:

composer require kainiklas/laravel-strict-mode

Optionally, you can publish the config file.

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="laravel-strict-mode-config"

You can influence the behaviour with environment variables.

This is the contents of the published config file.
