Let's you easily redact or replace the occurences of
words,sentencesor%wildcards%
A laravel middleware that will automatically censor the words that you will specify. All you have to do is specify the things, that you want to redact or replace, in a configuration file and these words will automatically be redacted/replaced from the views on whose route you will specify the middleware.
Perform the following operations in order to use this middleware
Run composer require kamranahmedse/laravel-censor in your terminal
Add Service Provider
Open config/app.php and add KamranAhmed\LaravelCensor\LaravelCensorServiceProvider::class to the end of providers array:
'providers' => array(
....
KamranAhmed\LaravelCensor\LaravelCensorServiceProvider::class,
),
Register the Middleware After that open the file app/Http/Kernel.php and add the following
'censor' => \KamranAhmed\LaravelCensor\CensorMiddleware::class
to the end of $routeMiddleware array
protected $routeMiddleware = [
...
'censor' => \KamranAhmed\LaravelCensor\CensorMiddleware::class
];
Publish Configuration Open terminal and run
php artisan vendor:publish
After following the above steps, there will be a censor.php file inside the config directory. The file has two arrays, namely replace and redact.
You have to specify the words that you want to replace in the replace array with words or wildcards set to the keys of array and replacements as values i.e.
'replace' => [
'idiot' => '(not a nice word)',
'hate%' => 'peace', // Wildcard: Will replace the words beginning at hate e.g. hatered, hate, hated etc
'%eograph%' => 'some-graphy-word', // Willcard: Will replace words containing `eograph` anywhere in the middle e.g. geographic, angeography etc
'seventh' => '7th',
'monthly' => 'every month',
'yearly' => 'every year',
'weekly' => 'every week',
],
For any words that you want to redact or completely remove, you have to specify them in the redact array
'redact' => [
'idiot%', // e.g. idiot will be replaced with 5 asterisks, idiotic with 7 asterisks etc
'password', // Will be replaced with 8 asterisks
'word-that-i-really-dislike',
],
The words specified in redact array will turn into asterisks. For example idiot will be turned into 5 asterisks (*****).
Now for any route from which you want these words to be redacted or replaced, place the middleware censor over it and it will automatically redact/replace those words from all of the page. For example, below is how you can specify it over the route e.g.
Route::get('post-detail', ['middleware' => 'censor', 'uses' => 'PostController@detail', 'as' => 'postDetail']);
Or specify it over the route group so that it may handle all the routes in that group e.g.
Route::group(['prefix' => 'post', 'middleware' => 'censor'], function () {
Route::get('detail', ['uses' => 'PostController@detail']);
Route::get('add', ['uses' => 'PostController@add']);
});
