Installation

Middleware

You can register any of the following middleware:

• SolarInvestments\Middleware\EnableSecurePaginationLinks
• SolarInvestments\Middleware\HideFromRobotsOnOrigin
• SolarInvestments\Middleware\LowerPathCasing
• SolarInvestments\Middleware\RemoveTrailingSlash
• SolarInvestments\Middleware\RequireVpn
• SolarInvestments\Middleware\SetFastlySurrogateKey

Enable Secure Pagination Links

This middleware fixes an issue where the next and prev links in the pagination response are generated using http instead of https.

Hide From Robots On Origin

This middleware adds the X-Robots-Tag header to the response with the value none (sme as noindex, nofollow) to prevent search engines from indexing the page. This is only done when the site is accessed directly on the origin server, e.g. http://origin.example.com instead of http://www.example.com.

Lower Path Casing

This middleware converts the path of the request to lowercase.

Remove Trailing Slash

This middleware removes the trailing slash from the path of the request.

Require VPN

This middleware restricts access to the application to specific IP addresses. This is useful when you want to restrict access to the application to only users on a VPN (or anywhere really).

To use the RequireVpn middleware, publish the configuration file:

By default, this middleware is "disabled" and all IP addresses are allowed.

To restrict access from specific IP addresses, set the VPN_IP_ADDRESSES environment variable in your .env file, e.g.:

Alternatively, you can specify the IP addresses in the config/vpn.php file.

Set Fastly Surrogate Key

This middleware adds the Surrogate-Key header to the response with the configured value, allowing you to purge the cache for specific pages.

To use the SetFastlySurrogateKey middleware, publish the configuration file:

Then, set the surrogate_keys in the config/fastly.php file, e.g.:

URLs

The UrlServiceProvider does the following when the application is not running locally:

1. Forces the https scheme for all URLs generated by Laravel.
2. Forces the root URL to whatever is set for the APP_URL environment variable.

Testing Traits
