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.

Informations about the package laravel-cookie-consent

Make your Laravel app comply with the refuse/accept cookie law

Latest Version on Packagist GitHub Workflow Status Total Downloads

All sites owned by EU citizens or targeted towards EU citizens must comply with a crazy EU law. This law requires a dialog to be displayed to inform the users of your websites how cookies are being used. You can read more info on the legislation on the site of the European Commission.

The users should be presented the option to agree or disagree with the optional cookies.

This package is based on the spatie/laravel-cookie-consent package by the good folks at Spatie.

This package provides an easily configurable view to display the message. Also included is JavaScript code to set a cookie when a user agrees or disagrees with the cookie policy. The user can also disagree, and the cookie is set the 0. The package will not display the dialog when that cookie has been set.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

The package will automatically register itself.

Optionally you can publish the config-file:

This is the contents of the published config-file:

Usage

To display the dialog all you have to do is include this view in your template:

This will render the following dialog that, when styled, will look very much like this one.

dialog

The default styling provided by this package uses TailwindCSS v2 to provide a floating banner at the bottom of the page.

When the user clicks "Allow cookies" a laravel_cookie_consent cookie will be set and the dialog will be removed from the DOM. On the next request, Laravel will notice that the laravel_cookie_consent has been set and will not display the dialog again

Refuse button

If you want to add a refuse button to the dialog, you can enable the option in the config file. When the user clicks on "Refuse non-essential cookies" a laravel_cookie_consent cookie will be set with the value of 0.

Customising the dialog texts

If you want to modify the text shown in the dialog you can publish the lang-files with this command:

This will publish this file to resources/lang/vendor/cookie-consent/en/texts.php.

If you want to translate the values to, for example, French, just copy that file over to resources/lang/vendor/cookie-consent/fr/texts.php and fill in the French translations.

Customising the dialog contents

If you need full control over the contents of the dialog. You can publish the views of the package:

This will copy the index and dialogContents view files over to resources/views/vendor/cookie-consent. You probably only want to modify the dialogContents view. If you need to modify the JavaScript code of this package you can do so in the index view file.

Using the middleware

Instead of including cookie-consent::index in your view you could opt to add the Retinens\CookieConsent\CookieConsentMiddleware to your kernel:

This will automatically add cookie-consent::index to the content of your response right before the closing body tag.

Helper

In your code you can use the facade to get the info if the user has accepted or not the non-essential cookies.

That way you can (or not) add cookies for the user, or add scripts into the header.

Notice

The legislation is pretty very vague on how to display the warning, which texts are necessary, and what options you need to provide. This package will go a long way towards compliance, but if you want to be 100% sure that your website is ok, you should consult a legal expert.
