Laravel 5.7.18 Released

Laravel 5.7.18 is available with the latest updates to the Laravel framework v5.7.

First, the framework now replaces all placeholders for the starts_with validation rule introduced in Laravel 5.7.15.

A new Facade::resolved() method registers callbacks that are called after service resolution. Here’s an example provided in the pull request:

/**
 * Register the token guard.
 *
 * @return void
 */
protected function registerGuard()
{
    Auth::resolved(function ($auth) {
        $auth->extend('passport', function ($app, $name, array $config) {
            return tap($this->makeGuard($config), function ($guard) {
                $this->app->refresh('request', $guard, 'setRequest');
            });
        });
    });
}

The last new feature is an env variable APP_CONFIG_CACHE to control the cache config path.
