This is currently my daily favorite channel 🍀 Sooo much indepth about those stuffs

[@saaslaravel]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@mohamedalqady1220]

Me to 🎉

[@free2idol1]

Awesome! I have used VO for a while but you've made it to the next level...
I hope you can release a tutorial of making mini app using DDD architecture.

[@saaslaravel]

Thanks so much! Tutorial on my version DDD is on the immediate roadmap (and a secret project connected to it 😊)

[@SemyonF89]

Yep! we need it!

[@igorleal1798]

It would be great to have generics in PHP so you could just pass a to your interface and use the Phone instead of a generic ValueObjectInterface for your isEqual definition

[@saaslaravel]

That's what I tried to do with phpdoc off camera but couldn't get it to work unfortunately :c

[@igorleal1798]

@@saaslaravel So sad... Hopefully, PHP will get native generics one day :D

[@medilies]

@@igorleal1798 there is a video by Brent where he explains why PHP can't have generics

[@TheGajos]

@@mediliesActually we can have generics in PHP, just like Python does (comments)

[@medilies]

@@TheGajos php annotations have no effect on runtime. they only improve IDE experience and work with static analyzers

I have learned so much from your videos, thank you! This type of videos are just awesome!

[@saaslaravel]

Thank you ❤️

[@bangladesherp5210]

Great explanation!

[@kenube]

Great videos. Can you explain the difference between DTO & Value Object? Always confuse with this two terms.

[@saaslaravel]

Thank you! In simple terms: Value object is a wrapper on a primitive inside of your system - phone, email, point, coupon etc, whereas DTO is an object with all of the data required for execution of a certain logic. DTOs often times include VO

[@kenube]

@@saaslaravel Thanks for the clarification! I probably already use DTO without knowing 😖

[@MarkSnape]

I was puzzled by the interface. I thought you were going to extend a base value object class and put these common methods there?

[@niceteg]

We miss you

[@saaslaravel]

I may or may not be getting back soon 👀

[@catalinul1461]

Hey mate! One question if I may, how would you handle transliteration when it comes to slugs in Laravel?

[@saaslaravel]

Hey! If you mean replacing characters like "ó" into "o" I think Str::slug handles that out of the box. If you mean localization - you could generate a slug that has a numeric ID and localized slug that's not taken into consideration in route binding i.e. "/blog/1-article"

[@catalinul1461]

@@saaslaravel Yes, the first option, thank you very much! :D

[@SussanRai]

I think spatie laravel data package is better for this type of data transformation

[@saaslaravel]

It may be, but it's important to be able to understand what's happening under the hood or just being able to implement it from scratch! 😁

[@SussanRai]

@@saaslaravel I agree on this

[@michaelrubel8776]

These look almost the same as the ones implemented in my package `laravel-value-objects` :)

[@saaslaravel]

Hi there! I was not familiar with your package but it looks pretty cool - I didn't copy the implementation from there though if that's what you are inferring :)

[@michaelrubel8776]

@@saaslaravel No, I'm just surprised at how close our thoughts are to each other on this topic. Even methods like "from". :))

[@saaslaravel]

That's a common approach used in Laravel so that's probably why. I use that all of the time for DTOs as well

[@onlynudes1398]

Please I need a DDD tutorials

[@saaslaravel]

It's def on the roadmap!
