Requirements

A Strapi instance running, configured and filled with content types.

Installation

composer require rapidez/strapi

Add the Strapi url to your .env:

STRAPI_URL=http://localhost:1337

Routes

Register some routes within routes/web.php and use the strapi() helper function to get the data. This function accepts the endpoint as parameter and just calls that endpoint and caches the response. For example:

Route::get('blog', function ($location) {
    return view('strapi.blog', ['data' => strapi('blogs')])
});

Route::get('blog/{slug}', function ($slug) {
    return view('strapi.blog-item', ['data' => strapi('blogs?slug='.$slug)[0]])
});

And use the data in your views. For example with {{ $data->name }} you'll get the content of the name field.

Dynamic zones

When you're using a dynamic zone within your content type you can render them with a Blade directive:

@dynamiczone($data->content)

This tries to render views with the same name as the component and the data will be available with the $data variable.

There is also a possibility to pass extra data to the template. For this you can pass an array as the second parameter:

@dynamiczone($data->content, ['foo' => 'bar', 'article' => $data])

The above example makes the variables $foo and $article available in the template

Cache

By default all responses from Strapi will be cached for 1 hour. You can change that with STRAPI_CACHE in your .env

Automatic cache clearing

You can setup a webhook within Strapi which will be called when something changes. If you configure that with the cache clear url from Rapidez you don't have to worry about content not showing up after changes. See the Rapidez cache docs.
