Structure Scout

Introduction

If you have a lot of Blade or Livewire components, it may take a lot of work to register them manually, especially in multi-tenancy applications.

The component scout can help with this. It is supported by spatie/php-structure-discoverer package, which also offers benefits such as caching.

It is recommend to use a domain-driven-design (DDD) pattern, such as src/App/Posts/Components/Card.php. Spatie offers an excellent in dept course about DDD.

Configuration

Structure Scout is disabled by default, and can be enabled in config/wireuse.php:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="wireuse-config"

'scout' => [
    'enabled' => true,

    'cache_store' => null,

    'cache_lifetime' => 60 * 60 * 24 * 7,
],

Blade Components

To auto-discover Blade components, create and register a service provider:

php artisan make:provider ViewServiceProvider

use Foxws\WireUse\Scout\ComponentScout;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;

class ViewServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    public function boot(): void
    {
        $this->registerComponents();
    }

    protected function registerComponents(): static
    {
        ComponentScout::create(app_path('Web'), 'App\\')->register();

        return $this;
    }
}

To call a registered Blade component:

<x-web.posts.card :$item />

Livewire Components

To discover Livewire components, create and register a service provider:

php artisan make:provider LivewireServiceProvider

use Foxws\WireUse\Scout\LivewireScout;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;

class LivewireServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    public function boot(): void
    {
        $this->registerComponents();
    }

    protected function registerComponents(): static
    {
        LivewireScout::create(app_path('Web'), 'App\\')->register();

        return $this;
    }
}

To call a registered Livewire component:

<livewire:web.posts.tags />
