Thanks to Marcus Olsson for this great solution
Stop polluting your customers footers with a "made by my agency so I put a cheap link in the footer"-link – that footer is your customers property. Instead, if you want credit – add a simple humans.txt.
All this package does is to add a route for /humans.txt
and the associated view. "Why would I ever need a package for a simple thing like this?" you wonder? Well, so did I until I had done it over 20-30 times – it just saves a few minutes which adds up over time.
See COMPATABILITY.md for full a full compatability chart. Else Composer should be able to figure it out by itself.
Install via composer:
$ composer require rivalex/laravel-humanstxt
Since Laravel > 5.5 the service provider will be automatically added. You can also add the service provider to your app.php
manually:
'providers' => [
Rivalex\Humans\ServiceProvider::class
]
Publish the view:
$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Rivalex\Humans\ServiceProvider"
Or by just typing:
$ php artisan vendor:publish
And selecting Rivalex\Humans\ServiceProvider
.
The view is located in your views-folder /humans/humans.blade.php
.
It's also valid to put this in your <head>
:
<link type="text/plain" rel="author" href="http://domain.com/humans.txt" />
If you by any chance need to access your humans.txt
via a named route, that's also possible:
<link type="text/plain" rel="author" href="{{ route('humans.txt') }}" />
Learn more about the humans.txt-standard at humanstxt.org.
