Prevent Duplicate Requests Middleware for Laravel

Latest Version on Packagist Total Downloads License: MIT PHPUnit

Middleware for Laravel that prevents duplicate requests based on user actions.

This middleware is designed to manage and prevent duplicate requests within a specified timeframe, ensuring that only unique requests are processed.

Installation

You can install the package via Composer:

composer require larowka/prevent-duplicate-requests

Usage

Laravel 11

Global Middleware

To apply middleware globally to every HTTP request in Laravel 11, you can use the withMiddleware method in your bootstrap/app.php file:

use \Larowka\PreventDuplicateRequests\Middleware\PreventDuplicateRequests;

->withMiddleware(function ($middleware) {
    // ...
    $middleware->append(PreventDuplicateRequests::class);
});

Assigning Middleware to Routes

If you want to assign middleware to specific routes, use the middleware method when defining the route:

Copy code
use \Larowka\PreventDuplicateRequests\Middleware\PreventDuplicateRequests;

Route::get('/example', function () {
    // Route logic...
})->middleware(PreventDuplicateRequests::class);

Middleware Aliases

You can define aliases for middleware in your bootstrap/app.php file to use shorter names for middleware classes:

use \Larowka\PreventDuplicateRequests\Middleware\PreventDuplicateRequests;

->withMiddleware(function ($middleware) {
    $middleware->alias([
        'preventDuplicate' => PreventDuplicateRequests::class,
    ]);
});

Once defined, you can use the alias when assigning middleware to routes:

Route::get('/example', function () {
    // Route logic...
})->middleware('preventDuplicate');

Laravel 10

Add the middleware to your Laravel application's HTTP kernel:

// app/Http/Kernel.php

protected $routeMiddleware = [
    // ...
    'preventDuplicate' => \Larowka\PreventDuplicateRequests\Middleware\PreventDuplicateRequests::class,
];

Apply the middleware to your routes:

Route::middleware('preventDuplicate')->get('/example', function () {
    return 'Unique request handled.';
});

Or use globally:

// app/Http/Kernel.php

protected $middleware = [
    // ...
    \Larowka\PreventDuplicateRequests\Middleware\PreventDuplicateRequests::class,
];
