L11 Folders configuration

[4m1n0s]

Hey laravel lovers,

i have an idea about add folder configuration to Application Builder in L11

Proposed approach

return Application::configure(basePath: dirname(__DIR__))
    ->useApp('src') // <- something like that
    ->useBootstrapPath('bootstrap')  // <- something like that
    ->withProviders()
    ->withRouting(
        web: __DIR__.'/../routes/web.php',
        // api: __DIR__.'/../routes/api.php',
        commands: __DIR__.'/../routes/console.php',
        // channels: __DIR__.'/../routes/channels.php',
        health: '/up',
    )
    ->withMiddleware(function (Middleware $middleware) {
        //
    })
    ->withExceptions(function (Exceptions $exceptions) {
        //
    })->create();

Current approach

$application = Application::configure(basePath: dirname(__DIR__))
    ->withProviders()
    ->withRouting(
        web: __DIR__.'/../routes/web.php',
        // api: __DIR__.'/../routes/api.php',
        commands: __DIR__.'/../routes/console.php',
        // channels: __DIR__.'/../routes/channels.php',
        health: '/up',
    )
    ->withMiddleware(function (Middleware $middleware) {
        //
    })
    ->withExceptions(function (Exceptions $exceptions) {
        //
    })->create();

$application->useApp('src');
$application->useBootstrapPath('bootstrap');

return $application;

Do I get it right you just move the useApp and useBootstrapPath into the chain rather then having them called afterwards?

Not sure what the problem is, but I think Taylor would have done so if he thought that was possible.

Since all the usePath methods return $this you could just chain them after the create call.

return Application::configure(basePath: dirname(__DIR__))
    ->withProviders()
    ->withRouting(
        web: __DIR__.'/../routes/web.php',
        // api: __DIR__.'/../routes/api.php',
        commands: __DIR__.'/../routes/console.php',
        // channels: __DIR__.'/../routes/channels.php',
        health: '/up',
    )
    ->withMiddleware(function (Middleware $middleware) {
        //
    })
    ->withExceptions(function (Exceptions $exceptions) {
        //
    })
    ->create()
    ->useAppPath(__DIR__.'/../src')
    ->useBootstrapPath(__DIR__);
