README

A custom middleware package for Laravel. It monitors incoming requests, watching for bots/crawlers scanning for vulnerabilities. Any bot activity and the crawler is blocked for a specified amount of time (10 minutes by default). The end result is a pretty good defense against probing scripts, crawlers and bots.

Supports Cloudflare & other Proxies

Installation

1. Install the package via Composer:

   composer require marcvanh/laravel-bot-block

2. (Optional) Publish the configuration file (for customization):

   php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Marcvanh\LaravelBotBlock\LaravelBotBlockServiceProvider"
