BlazingCDN

Laravel is another framework that is used to create web applications. It was made using the PHP language using the Model-View-Controller architectural pattern. To go through the process safely and smoothly, it is worth taking a few security measures. Prepare a CDN domain in BlazingCDN Static. Moreover, if you intend to use the HTTPS protocol, secure it additionally with SSL. Don’t forget to back up your resources and database. If you are using custom fonts, also run CORS.

How to integrate BlazingCDN and Laravel? Enable Laravel and define CDN in config. Then add the code in Laravela’s /config/app.php file:

<?php

return [
…
‘cdn_enabled’ => true,
‘cdn_domain’ => ‘cdn00000000.blazingcdn.net’,
‘cdn_protocol’ => ‘http’,
];

Create a CDN helper via app / helpers.php with the following content

<?php

function cdn($url = null)
{
    $url = (string) $url;
    if(empty($url))
    {
        throw new Exception(‘URL missing’);
    }

    $pattern = ‘|^http[s]{0,1}://|i’;
    if(preg_match($pattern, $url))
    {
        throw new Exception(‘Invalid URL. ‘ .
            ‘Use: /image.jpeg instead of full URI: ‘ .
            ‘http://domain.com/image.jpeg.’
        );
    }


    $pattern = ‘|^/|’;
    if(!preg_match($pattern, $url))
    {
        $url = ‘/’ . $url;
    }

    if(!Config::get(‘app.cdn_enabled’))
    {
        return $url;
    }
    else
    {
        return Config::get(‘app.cdn_protocol’) . ‘://’ . Config::get(‘app.cdn_domain’) . $url;
    }
}

Update the autoloader by adding the autoload key to Laravel in composer.json:

…
“autoload”: {
    “classmap”: [
      …
     ],
     …
     “files”: [
         “app/helpers.php”
     ]
},

…Finally, the helper views:

{{ cdn(‘/image.jpeg’) }}

which will output:

http://cdn00000000.blazingcdn.net/image.jpeg
