Fixed

• ApiCircuitBreaker: Fixed cache driver inconsistency — circuit breaker state now uses the configured API_CACHE_DRIVER instead of the default cache driver, ensuring consistent state sharing in distributed environments.
• ApiPerformanceHeaders: Fixed X-Performance-Warning header being silently overwritten when both high query count and slow request conditions triggered simultaneously. Both warnings are now combined.
• ApiHealthCheck: Fixed queue health check returning a false positive ok status without actually probing the queue driver. Now calls Queue::connection()->size() to verify connectivity.
• ApiETag: Fixed unconditional Cache-Control header overwrite that could conflict with application-level or other middleware caching directives. Now respects existing headers.
• ApiResponseCache: Removed unnecessary new Response() instantiation in shouldCache() — uses isEnable() directly.

Changed

• PageSpeed Base: Added Content-Type guard in the base handle() method — web middleware now skips non-HTML responses, preventing silent data corruption on misconfigured middleware groups.
• TrimUrls: Protocol stripping is now limited to src, href, and action attributes only, preventing corruption of JavaScript strings, meta tags, and SVG namespaces.
• ApiSecurityHeaders: Changed X-XSS-Protection from deprecated 1; mode=block to 0 as recommended by MDN.
• composer.json: Simplified PHP version constraint from ^8.2 || ^8.3 to ^8.2, covering PHP 8.2, 8.3, 8.4+ without redundancy.

Upgrade

composer update vinkius-labs/laravel-page-speed
php artisan config:clear

No breaking changes. Drop-in replacement for v4.4.x.

What's Changed

• Update CollapseWhitespace.php by @DmytroGural in https://github.com/vinkius-labs/laravel-page-speed/pull/216
• Fix: Prevent PCRE stack exhaustion and blank pages in replaceInsideHtmlTags by @DmytroGural in https://github.com/vinkius-labs/laravel-page-speed/pull/217

New Contributors

• @DmytroGural made their first contribution in https://github.com/vinkius-labs/laravel-page-speed/pull/216

Full Changelog: https://github.com/vinkius-labs/laravel-page-speed/compare/v4.4.1...v4.4.2

Fixed

• 🐛 RemoveComments Middleware: Removed broken logPerformanceMetrics() call that passed pre-computed elapsed time instead of raw start time, resulting in wildly inaccurate debug metrics (~1.7 billion ms). The parent PageSpeed::handle() already provides correct, debug-only performance logging.
• 🐛 InlineCss Middleware: Fixed state leak across requests in persistent environments (Laravel Octane, Swoole). Instance properties , , and `` are now reset at the beginning of each apply() call.
• 🐛 PageSpeed Base Class: Removed stale static `` cache that was never cleared, causing runtime configuration changes to be silently ignored in persistent environments.
• 🐛 ApiResponseCache Middleware: Removed orphaned docblock for a deleted supportsTags() method and corrected invalidateCache() return type from [@return](https://github.com/return) void to [@return](https://github.com/return) bool.
• 🐛 Config: Removed duplicate *.doc entry in the skip list.

Changed

• 🧪 Updated ConfigTest to validate correct behavior: isEnable() now reflects runtime configuration changes instead of returning a stale cached value.

What's Changed

• Laravel 13.x Compatibility (#215) by @laravel-shift

Changes

• Added Laravel 13 support to illuminate/support constraint
• Updated phpunit/phpunit to support ^12.5.12
• Updated orchestra/testbench to support ^11.0
• Updated GitHub Actions test matrix to include Laravel 13
• Excluded PHP 8.2 from Laravel 13 tests (requires PHP 8.3+)

Full Changelog: https://github.com/vinkius-labs/laravel-page-speed/compare/v4.3.2...v4.4.0

Fixed

• 🐛 InlineCss Middleware: Fixed regex pattern to prevent matching framework-specific class attributes (Issues #75, #133, #154)
  • Changed from /class="(.*?)"/ to /(?<![-:])class="(.*?)"/i using negative lookbehind
  • Now correctly ignores ng-class (AngularJS), :class (Alpine.js), v-bind:class (Vue.js)
  • Horizon dashboard now works correctly with InlineCss (Issue #133)
  • AngularJS applications with ng-class work correctly (Issue #75)

🔧 Technical Implementation Details

Static Memoization Pattern

private static $voidElementsCache = null;

public static function voidElements(): array
{
    if (self::$voidElementsCache === null) {
        self::$voidElementsCache = [/* ... */];
    }
    return self::$voidElementsCache;
}

Regex Consolidation Example

Before (6 operations):

preg_match_all('#<script[^>]+src=["\']([^"\']+)["\']#i', $buffer, $m1);
preg_match_all('#<link[^>]+href=["\']([^"\']+)["\']#i', $buffer, $m2);
// ... 4 more similar operations

After (1 operation):

preg_match_all(
    '#<(?:link|img|a|iframe|video|audio|source)\s[^>]*\b(?:src|href)=["\']([^"\']+)["\']#i',
    $buffer,
    $matches
);

Single-Pass Callback Pattern

Before:

foreach ($tags as $tag) {
    preg_match_all($regex, $tag, $matches);
    $tagAfterReplace = str_replace($matches[0], $replace, $tag);
    $buffer = str_replace($tag, $tagAfterReplace, $buffer);
}

After:

$buffer = preg_replace_callback($pattern, function ($matches) use ($regex, $replace) {
    return preg_replace($regex, $replace, $matches[0]);
}, $buffer);

🚀 Migration Guide

Release v3.1.0 - Critical Bug Fixes & Enhanced Robustness

This release includes critical bug fixes and significantly improved test coverage to ensure package stability and reliability.

🐛 Critical Bug Fixes

1. JavaScript Comment Removal Bug (#180, #184)

Issue: The RemoveComments middleware was incorrectly removing // characters inside JavaScript strings, breaking code:

var url = "http://example.com"; // Comment
// After processing: var url = "http:"; ❌

Fix:

• ✅ Complete refactoring with character-by-character parser
• ✅ Proper string state tracking (single quotes, double quotes, regex literals)
• ✅ URL preservation (http://, https://, ://)
• ✅ Line ending preservation for cross-platform compatibility

Tests: 8 new comprehensive tests covering edge cases

Fixes: #180, #184

2. InsertDNSPrefetch Extracting URLs from JSON-LD (#179)

Issue: The InsertDNSPrefetch middleware was incorrectly extracting URLs from:

• JSON-LD structured data (<script type="application/ld+json">)
• JavaScript code inside <script> tags
• CSS code inside <style> tags

This caused unwanted DNS prefetch tags and SEO issues.

Fix:

• ✅ Refactored to extract URLs ONLY from HTML resource attributes
• ✅ Supports: <script src>, <link href>, <img src>, <a href>, <iframe src>, <video>, <audio>, <source>
• ✅ Ignores: Script content, style content, JSON-LD, inline JavaScript

Tests: 3 new tests for JSON-LD, JavaScript, and edge cases

Fixes: #179

3. PCRE Error Handling for Large HTML

Issue: Large HTML documents could exceed PCRE backtrack/recursion limits, causing blank pages.

Fix:

• ✅ Added PCRE error detection in PageSpeed::replace()
• ✅ Graceful fallback to original content on PCRE errors
• ✅ Prevents blank pages

Tests: 2 tests with 5,000 and 20,000 line HTML documents

Related: #184

📚 Documentation & Test Coverage

DeferJavascript Comprehensive Test Suite (#173)

Added: 17 extremely robust tests (47 assertions) documenting all edge cases:

✅ Basic Functionality:

• Preserves existing defer attributes
• Respects data-pagespeed-no-defer
• Does NOT modify inline scripts

✅ Edge Cases:

• Type attributes (text/javascript, module, application/ld+json)
• Async attribute
• Integrity and crossorigin attributes
• Multiple scripts with mixed configurations
• Empty src attributes
• Relative/absolute/protocol-relative paths
• Single/double/no quotes
• Performance: 100 scripts in <100ms

✅ GLightbox Scenario: Documents the exact issue from #173 with 4 solution options

Related: #173

🔧 Dependency Updates

• Dependencies: Updated minimum versions for all dependencies

✨ Added

• ✅ Laravel 12.x support
• ✅ Laravel 11.x support
• ✅ PHPUnit 11.x support
• ✅ PHP 8.3 support
• ✅ New tests for ServiceProvider (5 tests)
• ✅ New tests for HtmlSpecs entity (4 tests)
• ✅ GitHub Actions workflow for automated testing

🔄 Changed

• 📦 Updated Laravel support to ^10.0 || ^11.0 || ^12.0
• 📦 Updated PHP requirement to ^8.2 || ^8.3
• 📦 Updated PHPUnit to ^10.5 || ^11.0

• 🧹 Removed deprecated $defer property from ServiceProvider
• ✨ Added void return types to ServiceProvider methods
• 📋 Updated phpunit.xml.dist to PHPUnit 11.5 schema

❌ Removed

• Laravel 6.x, 7.x, 8.x, 9.x support (use v2.x for older Laravel versions)
• PHP 8.0 and 8.1 support (use v2.x for PHP 8.0/8.1)
• Deprecated $defer property from ServiceProvider

🧪 Testing

• 🎯 Test coverage increased from 24 to 33 tests (37.5% increase)
• ✅ All 33 tests passing with 125 assertions
• 🔄 CI/CD testing across PHP 8.2/8.3 with Laravel 10/11/12

📖 Migration Guide

From v2.x to v3.x

Requirements:

• PHP 8.2 or 8.3
• Laravel 10.x, 11.x, or 12.x

Steps:

1. Update your composer.json:

{
    "require": {
        "php": "^8.2 || ^8.3",
        "laravel/framework": "^10.0 || ^11.0 || ^12.0",
        "renatomarinho/laravel-page-speed": "^3.0"
    }
}

2. Run composer update:

composer update renatomarinho/laravel-page-speed

3. Clear config cache:

php artisan config:clear
php artisan cache:clear

Breaking Changes:

• If you're extending the ServiceProvider class, remove the $defer property
• If you have custom middleware extending package middleware, ensure compatibility with Laravel 10+

⏮️ Staying on v2.x

If you need to stay on Laravel 6-9 or PHP 8.0/8.1, use version constraint:

{
    "require": {
        "renatomarinho/laravel-page-speed": "^2.1"
    }
}

This will prevent automatic upgrades to v3.x during composer update.
