php Rules

Avoid aliases for new routes in PHP

Only use route aliases for backward compatibility with renamed or moved routes. Do not add aliases to newly created routes. Bad: `php // Adding an alias to a new route Route::put('/api/users/{id}') ->alias('/api/user/{id}'); // Another framework example $router->map('GET', '/products/{productId}', 'ProductController::show') ->alias('product.show.alt'); ` Good: `php // New route without an alias Route::put('/api/users/{id}'); `

Prefer switch statements in PHP

Use switch statements when handling multiple attribute types. Bad: `php foreach ($attributes as $attribute) { if ($attribute->getAttribute('type') === Database::VAR_RELATIONSHIP) { // Handle relationship attribute } if ($attribute->getAttribute('type') === Database::VAR_STRING) { // Handle string attribute } } ` Good: `php foreach ($attributes as $attribute) { $attributeType = $attribute->getAttribute('type'); switch ($attributeType) { case Database::VAR_RELATIONSHIP: // Handle relationship attribute break; case Database::VAR_STRING: // Handle string attribute break; } } `
