CloudWays Blog:
Create Live Search In Laravel Using AJAX
Dec 07, 2017 @ 18:55:08

The Cloudways blog has posted a new tutorial for the Laravel users out there showing you how to create a "live search" box for the contents of your site. They use an e-commerce example and make use of some simple Javascript to return results from a backend script.

Whether you have a blog or an ecommerce store, a search bar is always an essential component of the UI. However, the days of simple search bar is over. These days, a live search bar is much more efficient than a simple search bar because it displays similar content in real time. This increases the chance of landing a sale because the customer could see the largest selection of related products.

The article starts off with the prerequisites for following along including an installation of PHP, MySQL, Apache and Laravel. They include an optional step of setting it all up on a Cloudways server but this isn't required if you want to do it locally. The tutorial then walks through the setup steps and creating the migration for the "products" table it will search. It also shows the creation of the controller and routes for the search endpoints and the view with the Javascript to make the Ajax request. It finishes with a way to test the result and a screenshot of what should be returned.

Knp University:
Our favorite PhpStorm Live Templates: Share yours
Aug 21, 2015 @ 15:49:39

The Knp University site has a posted an article where they've shared their favorite PHPStorm Live templates, a set of handy shortcuts that can make for less typing on your part and, as a result, less development time spent on common keystrokes.

Most editors have a feature like this, and if you’re not leveraging them, you’re slowing yourself down. Seriously: taking a few minutes to get into these now could add up to a lot of hours saved in the future. The vim users at KnpLabs love this kind of stuff, and have published their own snippets (docteurklein, PedroTroller, Einenlum).

In our tutorial about live templates, we turn formhandle into a snippet that types about 10 lines of form-handling boilerplate code from 10 characters of text. So I started wondering: what are some other awesome live templates we should all be using?

To this end, they've created a repository to store some of these helpful shortcuts. Their list so far includes shortcuts for a 404 if statement, several Twig tags, several for use in a controller context and YAML formatting. The repository includes instructions on how to install the shortcuts and how to include only the ones you want.
