StaticCache::enablePreview() / disablePreview() / isPreview()

Turn preview mode on or off for the current browser: while it is on, static pages skip the cache and render fresh. Guide: Preview mode.

use Fydellys\InertiaStatic\Facades\StaticCache;

Route::get('/preview/enable', fn () => redirect('/')->withCookie(StaticCache::enablePreview()))->middleware('auth');
Route::get('/preview/disable', fn () => redirect('/')->withCookie(StaticCache::disablePreview()));

$posts = StaticCache::isPreview() ? Post::all() : Post::published()->get();

Reference

StaticCache::enablePreview(?int $minutes = null): Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Cookie   // default: preview.minutes (60)
StaticCache::disablePreview(): Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Cookie
StaticCache::isPreview(): bool   // true while a valid preview cookie is sent

Good to know

• Protect the route that enables preview (for example with auth): the package does not.
• The cookie is signed with APP_KEY, so it cannot be forged.
• Configure your CDN to bypass its cache when the preview cookie (inertia_static_preview) is present.
