    Laravel Prompts Adds a Multi-line Textarea Input, Laravel 11.3 Released

    This week, the Laravel team released v11.3, which includes multi-line text in Laravel Prompts, a Session:hasAny() method, a Context::pull() method, and more.

    Multi-line Text Prompts

    Joe Tannenbaum contributed a textarea function to Laravel prompts that accepts multi-line text from a user:

    The textarea() function includes an optional validation argument as well as a required argument to make sure the textarea is filled out:

    use function LaravelPromptstextarea;

    $story = textarea(
    label: ‘Tell me a story.’,
    placeholder: ‘This is a story about…’,
    required: true,
    hint: ‘This will be displayed on your profile.’
    );

    // Validation
    $story = textarea(
    label: ‘Tell me a story.’,
    validate: fn (string $value) => match (true) {
    strlen($value) < 250 => ‘The story must be at least 250 characters.’,
    strlen($value) > 10000 => ‘The story must not exceed 10,000 characters.’,
    default => null
    }
    );

    See the textarea() function documentation for usage details and Pull Request #88 in the laravel/prompts repository for the implementation.

    New Session hasAny() Method

    Mahmoud Mohamed Ramadan contributed a hasAny() method to sessions, which is a nice improvement when checking to see if any values are in the session:

    // Before
    if (session()->has(‘first_name’) || session()->has(‘last_name’)) {
    // do something…
    }

    // Using the new hasAny() method
    if (session()->hasAny([‘first_name’, ‘last_name’])) {
    // do something…
    }

    Context Pull Method

    @renegeuze contributed a pull() and pullHidden() method to the Context service, which pulls the contextual data and immediately removes it from context.

    $foo = Context::pull(‘foo’);
    $bar = Context::pullHidden(‘foo’);

    An example use-case for this feature might be capturing context for database logging and pulling it because the additional context is no longer needed.
