FAQ
Example:
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 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 link-checker
Laravel Link Checker
A robust and flexible package for checking the status of URLs within your Laravel application. It concurrently checks a list of URLs, follows redirects, and intelligently extracts page titles from both HTML pages and PDF documents.
PDF title extraction is handled via a configurable AWS Lambda function, allowing for powerful, serverless processing of PDF metadata. The package is designed with a clean, extensible architecture, making it easy to add new title extraction strategies in the future.
Installation
You can install the package via composer:
Configuration
First, publish the configuration file to your application's config directory:
This will create a config/link-checker.php file.
PDF Title Extraction (Optional)
To enable title extraction from PDF documents, you must configure your AWS credentials and specify the ARN of your deployed Lambda function in your .env file.
The package will automatically use the official AWS SDK for PHP, which looks for credentials in the following order:
- IAM Role (Recommended for production environments like EC2 or ECS)
- Environment variables
If AWS_PDF_TITLE_LAMBDA_ARN is not set, the package will gracefully skip PDF title extraction without causing errors.
Usage
Using the Facade
You can use the LinkChecker facade to check an array of URLs. The check method returns a Collection of LinkCheckResult objects.
Using Dependency Injection
For developers who prefer dependency injection over facades, you can type-hint the LinkCheckerInterface in your class constructor or method. Laravel's service container will automatically resolve the correct implementation.
Passing Custom Options
The check method accepts an optional second argument for custom options, such as headers and a referrer. These options will be used for both the initial URL check and will be passed to the PDF extractor Lambda for maximum authenticity.
