When you are working with a one-to-many relationship, it is sometimes the case that a particular instance on the "many" side of the relationship is flagged as unique and important to your system in some way. It can be really handy to be able to access that unique instance in a first class way from your models. This post is going to cover how you can do that without introducing any new concepts into your application.

Using the newly released spatie/laravel-remote package, you can quickly execute Artisan commands on a remote server.
Here's an example that will clear the cache on the remote server.
php artisan remote cache:clear
In this blog post, I'd like to tell you all about it!
In this streaming session, you can see me build up the package from scratch. You can find the code seen in the stream in the spatie/laravel-remote repo on GitHub. If you want to learn how to build PHP and Laravel packages, consider purchasing our Laravel Package Training video course.
Earlier this year, we released Ray, a desktop app that allows you to debug faster. Instead of dumping values to the browser or console, Ray allows you to display debugging information beautifully in a dedicated window.
Since launch, Ray helps you debug local projects. Today, we're adding the most requested feature to Ray: the ability to connect to remote servers. All output of the ray() call, will be sent securely from your remote server to the local app via SSH.
Using this feature, you can quickly investigate problems on your production servers that you are unable to recreate locally.
In this short video you'll see a quick demo!

Here's the recording of Laravel Worldwide Meetup #6.
Frank De Jonge walked us through improvement made in Flysystem v2. Stefan Baumgartner showed us the awesomeness that is TypeScript.
You can watch recordings of previous editions in this playlist on YouTube.
When a site is down, Oh Dear sends a notification every hour. Since last year, our notifications can be snoozed for a fixed amount of time (5 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, one day).
In the evenings and weekends, our users might not want to receive repeated notifications. That's why we've added a nice human touch: all notifications can now be snoozed until the start of the next workday.
In this blog post, I'd like to share some of the code that powers this feature. We'll focus on how the start of the next workday is calculated.

When you use software that is open source, you'll sometimes run into issues or small bugs that have already been fixed by the community in a PR or an issue, but have yet to be merged and/or released. If you're impatient and need that fix now, composer patches can be a solution for this problem.
