The Laravel team tagged v12.1.0—the first minor release of Laravel 12—which includes a context scope method, an Arr::partition() method, a getRawSql() method on query exception instances, and more.

New Array Partition Method

Liam Duckett contributed the partition method to the Array helper, which allows using existing partition logic without having to reach for collections:

$numbers = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
 
// Using collections
[$evens, $odds] = collect($numbers)->partition(fn(int $number) => $number % 2 === 0);
 
// Using the Arr::partition() method
[$evens, $odds] = Arr::partition($numbers, fn(int $number) => $number % 2 === 0);

This method partitions the array into two arrays using the provided callback.

Added a getRawSql() Method to Query Exceptions

@erickcomp contributed a getRawSql() method to the QueryException class, which returns the raw SQL representation of the query with embedded bindings. You could use this to report any problematic query errors:

->withExceptions(function (Exceptions $exceptions) {
$exceptions->report(function (QueryException $e) {
// ...
MyErrorServiceFacade::report('Error executing SQL: ', $e->getRawSql());
});
})

Context Scope Method

Luke Kuzmish contributed a Context::scope() method that can include context for the duration of a function call and then restore the context to what it was before the call:

// Before
Context::add('event_id', $event->id);
 
try {
$this->innerHandle($event);
} finally {
Context::forget(['event_id', 'sns_message_id']);
}
 
// After
Context::scope(
fn () => $this->innerHandle($event),
['event_id' => $event->id]
);

You can learn more about the Context::scope() method in the documentation.

PendingCommand Class is Now Tappable

Kevin Bui added the Tappable trait to the testing PendingCommand class, which allows you to handle assertions all in one go:

$this->artisan('orders:refunding', ['--ids' => 1])
->expectsOutput('Start Refunding...')
->tap(function ($command) {
// ...
$command->expectsOutput('...');
});

See Pull Request #54801 for the complete example.
