README

This package contains some useful Artisan commands to work with PHP OPcache.

If you want to learn more about OPcache and what it can do for your Laravel application, read the article on Medium.

Requirements

This package requires Laravel 7 or newer.

Installation

You can install the package via Composer:

composer require appstract/laravel-opcache

If you need to change config values, you can publish the config file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Appstract\Opcache\OpcacheServiceProvider" --tag="config"

Make sure your APP_URL is set correctly in .env.

If you want to set a different url to call the OPcache routes (for use with a load balancer for example), you can set OPCACHE_URL.

Usage

Clear OPcache:

php artisan opcache:clear

Show OPcache config:

php artisan opcache:config

Show OPcache status:

php artisan opcache:status

Pre-compile your application code:

php artisan opcache:compile {--force}

Note: opcache.dups_fix must be enabled, or use the --force flag. If you run into "Cannot redeclare class" errors, enable opcache.dups_fix or add the class path to the exclude list.

Programmatic usage:

use Appstract\Opcache\OpcacheFacade as OPcache;

...

OPcache::clear();
