A New String Helper, Assert Enums in AssertableJson, and more in Laravel 11.20

The Laravel team released v11.20 this week, including a new collection method, a deduplicate string method, the ability to use Enums with AssertableJson, and more.

Add collapseWithKeys to Collection

Jason McCreary contributed a collapseWithKeys() method to the Illuminate\Support\Collection class that collapses nested arrays while preserving their keys:

$c = collect([[1 => 'a'], [3 => 'c'], [2 => 'b']]);
$c->collapseWithKeys();
/*
[
    1 => "a",
    3 => "c",
    2 => "b",
]
*/

Add deduplicate to strings

Jason McCreary contributed a deduplicate string helper that replaces consecutive occurrences of a character with a character:

Str::deduplicate('random  double  spaces'); // 'random double spaces'
Str::deduplicate('/some//odd/path//', '/'); // '/some/odd/path/'
(string) str('zondaaaa')->deduplicate('a'); // 'zonda'

Allow Custom View Path When Making Components

Andrew Brown contributed the ability to define a --path flag when you need to create the view path in a custom file location:

php artisan make:component Foo --path custom/path

By default, the make:component command will continue to use the resources/views/components folder.

Introduce a MixFileNotFoundException Exception Class

Ihor Vereshchynskyi contributed a new MixFileNotFoundException class to handle missing Mix files. This exception provides a more precise error-handling mechanism when this exception gets thrown.

Allow enums to be passed to AssertableJson where methods

Patrick O'Meara contributed the ability to use Enums while using where* methods with AssertableJson instances:

// Before
fn (AssertableJson $json) => $json->where('role', UserRole::Developer->value)

// After
fn (AssertableJson $json) => $json->where('role', UserRole::Developer)

Prompt to Create a Markdown Template When Making Notifications

Christoph Rumpel updated the make:notification command to prompt for creating an optional markdown view when you don't provide any initial input:

php artisan make:notification

You will get the following prompts to select a markdown view for your notification class:

Add stackContains() and hiddenStackContains() Methods to Context Stacks

@lessevv contributed the ability to check if a value (or hidden value) is contained in a context stack. Here are a few examples from Pull Request #52346:

// Normal
Context::push('foo', 'bar', 'lorem');

Context::stackContains('foo', 'bar'); // true
Context::stackContains('foo', 'lorem'); // true
Context::stackContains('foo', 'doesNotExist'); // false

// Hidden
Context::pushHidden('foo', 'bar', 'lorem');

Context::hiddenStackContains('foo', 'bar'); // true
Context::hiddenStackContains('foo', 'lorem'); // true
Context::hiddenStackContains('foo', 'doesNotExist'); // false

Inverse Fake Queue Assertion Methods

Günther Debrauwer contributed assertNotDeleted, assertNotFailed, and assertNotReleased assertions to the queue that you can use to assert the inverse of these methods:

use App\Jobs\ProcessPodcast;
 
$job = (new ProcessPodcast)->withFakeQueueInteractions();
 
$job->handle();

$job->assertNotDeleted();
$job->assertNotFailed();
$job->assertNotReleased();

Make Facade::isFake() Public

Caleb White contributed an update to the isFake() method, making the visibility public:

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Bus;

Bus::isFake(); // false
Bus::fake();
Bus::isFake(); // true
