you may also try DB::listen and put it at constructor of the controller, in that method in logs all queries not only models, you have the query string and parameters array, filter non query scripts, filter table modified and trigger your functions I use this to all my controllers to log non query statements
Hm, the first option - observer has in it's constructor fetching admins via database?? So every time an observer is imported or initiated there will be db query..
If I want to do an action base on the result of something (like if a user registration was successfull or failed). Should I make two events or just one event with status of the action passed by param?
How to stop model from being observed in specific situations? For example: I have set user_id in observers, but I have an admin user which requires all user_id s and need the observer to be off.
Hi, thanks for the good content. I don't really get the purpose of firing an event the way you recommend, rather than just calling some service to perform that action. What benefit is there to use fire an event over using some service? I understand that events are binded to certain actions, and usually happen behind the scenes, so are not declared in code and that is the benefit. For example you want a certain action to happen whenever a status is updated, regardless of where in the code its done from, its good to have an event, because if another developer comes and updates a status somewhere, automatically that event will get fired. But as you said the drawback is it makes the code harder to read and follow.
Services allows you to move the logic outside of controller, so that the logic code is more reusable, whereas events provide more control of *when* the logic should be dispatched. Event is also queueable, meaning it can perform long tasks or jobs in background. Event allows you to define new lifecycle of an action. For example you might want to execute background task of creating a information archive of user activity when user asks for it. The process may take about 1-2 days. Then the archive is added to storage for 30 days. After that you want to send a notification to user via email, informing them that the backup is successfully created. The problem with event is that if your event handles something that *transforms* the data, its result will be hard to debug because event doesn't explicitly throws exception in production environment if it fails to handle the data. The event's logics are invisible because of code decoupling through listeners. A single event may have multiple listeners. If the job fails, the event will simply throws exception to failed jobs and the tasks will move on. Which is why it's hard to read and follow. (please correct me about that last part because I'm not really sure myself)
how I receive an email when something changes on the database Like the expired DateTime In my case there is a Building table has a column check_at (timestamp) I need when check_at < now() send email to me or receive an notification Thank you
Thanks for the video. I was about to ask this when I had the same scenario. Please explain the difference between boot method and observer or which is the best way to implement a created_by and updated_by fields to be filled while creating and updating a model. From controller or model or by using observer?
Many thanks. What kind of plugins have u installed to ur phpstorm? I can see u navigating very fast from one class to another eg You place a cursor on Register trait .Move to another file.Pls share
Is there a way to move that work to after the user receives their response on project creation? It is that work insignificant milliseconds? I love your topics.
It's very personal and depends on your server setup and how familiar you are with those tools. Personally, our team use Redis and Laravel Horizon, mostly.
i have a blog system where user can subscribe to some category if someone post anything under that category those categories subscriber will be notified .. if i do this notification system using Laravel Event should the user (who posted the article) have to wait until finish the notification done ?
Sorry, maybe I didn't emphasize it right. In this case, both observer and listener use THE SAME notification class to send. It's just a different way to call that notification.
Hi, wanna ask about observes, can I ignore observer some times. For example, I haver 3 different cases where I update my User model and in 1 of them I dont need observer, is that real?
Well, the most straightforward way would be to check inside of the observer's method - if your condition is met, and then fire or not fire other events. Or, not sure if would work on Observers, or only events, but can you try Muting Events, or saveQuietly()? laravel.com/docs/8.x/eloquent#muting-events
Great tutorials. I have a question. Is it possible when you get live from youtube channel and automatically get notify the front end users of the website, for example, you get that live stream on your home page automatically and show notification as well? If yes then please provide the solution, otherwise what will be the alternative solution? Thanks
@@PovilasKorop Thanks for your reply that quick. (for other viewers, if anyone has the solution please suggest and help will be much appreciated. Thanks)
@@ijazali9736 It seems you would have to just check the list of live streams from UA-cam Live Streaming API periodically as there are no webhooks in its docs. But you could also experiment with UA-cam Data API that has something called "Push Notification" for video upload so that could maybe work with streams as well.
Great explanation. But here comes a question, Lets extend your use case. 1) Project::create 2) notify() here we are sending email. How to make it always working, that everytime New project is created it sends email? Lets suppose Project is created successfully but EMAIL could not be sent for some condition (server down, unavailable, error). How to catch this scenario? Do we need to delete record from db and try again. Or resned email. Plz elaborate your suggestions. Thanks. Respect from Pakistan 🇵🇰
For that, you would queue the events with retry parameter and error logging. Can't answer all of that in one comment, sorry, maybe at some point I should shoot a video, but it depends very much on your server setup and queue configuration is more about server config than Laravel code.

I've always preferred firing events. It seems to me like less of a mystery when tracking issues and other stuffs.
Litteraly you are the best
your videos have helped me a lot
thanks!
And again a great explanation. Thank you
Great explanation about the difference. Thanks
you can send the event through the observer, this would be a good approach because its using single responsibility principle
Really good video as always. Thanks A LOT! Keep pushing, keep going!

Yes, observers: github.com/LaravelDaily/laravel-tips#set-logged-in-user-with-observers
Also, video: ua-cam.com/video/nCiNqboYFVQ/v-deo.html
Boot method is good in this case. Because the logic is not that big and it is related to model and it should remain in the model.
@@AtiqSamtia boot method is in model?
I did notice that if you use events and listeners in a dispatched job then it doesn't work. Is there a reason for this?

For those cases an observer is a better tool than event listeners.

You can't, observers are Eloquent function.

Events and Listeners

Dont use Observer. it has Performance issues.
Laravel looks so ugly comparing to Symfony 😂 But it seems that many things are very easy to achieve.
