FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package laravel-gzip

Laravel Gzip

Laravel Gzip is a simple and effective way to gzip your response for a better performance.

Installation

Installing the Package

You can install the package via composer:

Installing Brotli Extension (Optional but Recommended)

Brotli provides 15-20% better compression than Gzip and is supported by all modern browsers. To install the Brotli extension, you can use PECL:

macOS (using Homebrew):

Ubuntu/Debian:

[!NOTE]
If Brotli is not available, the package will automatically fall back to Gzip compression.

Config file

Publish the configuration file using artisan.

Usage

This package has a very easy and straight-forward usage.

Laravel v11+

Just add the middleware in bootstrap/app.php, like so:

Laravel v10 and older

Just add the middleware to the $middleware array in app/Http/Kernel.php like so:

[!IMPORTANT] In a previous version, we recommended adding the middleware to the web middleware group. Now, we recommend adding to global $middleware because we want to apply gzip to all requests. Additionally, registering the middleware in the web group caused debugger to break.

Also, if you are using spatie/laravel-cookie-consent package, you should register this middleware before the \Spatie\CookieConsent\CookieConsentMiddleware::class middleware.

[!PS] To see the package working in production-like mode, use APP_ENV=production (double-check typos) and APP_DEBUG=false.

Important for Laravel v11+ / v12

If compression does not apply after changing environment/config values, clear cached config:

When testing locally you can force compression:

That's it! Now your responses will be gzipped.

Troubleshooting

If you still don't see Content-Encoding: gzip or Content-Encoding: br, check:

  1. The request includes Accept-Encoding: gzip (or br).
  2. Response content is larger than GZIP_MIN_LENGTH (default is 256).
  3. Route/path is not excluded by excluded_paths.
  4. MIME type is compressible.
  5. Config cache is cleared (php artisan optimize:clear) after env changes.
