What PHP to JS package is recommended? #116

Open augustjanse opened 3 years ago

augustjanse commented 3 years ago

The part on getting data to JS says this:

The best way is to use specialized PHP to JS package to transfer the data.

What package would that be?

carlos-mora commented 3 years ago

Depending on what schema are you going to use to transfer data. In my case, using GraphQL, I have Lighthouse on the Laravel side, and Apollo on the other end.

augustjanse commented 3 years ago

In that case you're accessing the data with an AJAX style request. Is that what the guideline is saying to do? I don't think that's very clear.

@augustjanse when I wrote this, I meant packages like this one (this particular one is very old). There were plenty of those.

I guess there are better ways to pass data to front-end in 2021. I haven't worked with front-end for a long time, so I can't help here.

I'll keep this issue open so JS guys could share their thoughts about the problem.

Alright, thanks! The upstream to the fork you linked looks like it is being maintained, so it looks like a reasonably good alternative. I thought it was kind of hard to find information about it, though, so it may still be dubious as a best practice. Interested in hearing from others what they think.
