I am developing a project in laravel8 (which is still new) and I want to hide some custom response headers(starting with x-) like:
X-RateLimit-Limit: 15
X-RateLimit-Remaining: 14
I want to customize this behavior and hide these headers, how can I easily find code (in a framework), which set's these headers
My code:
protected function configureRateLimiting()
{
RateLimiter::for('api', function (Request $request) {
return Limit::perMinute(15);
});
}
Let's say we can create a new App\Http\Middleware\ThrottleRequests class which will extend original \Illuminate\Routing\Middleware\ThrottleRequests. And override the method getHeaders to your own that will return empty array.
namespace App\Http\Middleware;
use Illuminate\Routing\Middleware\ThrottleRequests as OriginalThrottleRequests;
/**
...
*/
class ThrottleRequests extends OriginalThrottleRequests
{
/**
* @inheritdoc
*/
protected function getHeaders($maxAttempts, $remainingAttempts, $retryAfter = null)
{
return [];
}
}
And then all you need to do is to change middleware definitions inside app/Http/Kernel.php file. Property $routeMiddleware where you register 'throttle' middleware \Illuminate\Routing\Middleware\ThrottleRequests::class you can change to your own implementation \App\Http\Middleware\ThrottleRequests::class.
In my case it is:
/**
* The application's route middleware.
*
* These middleware may be assigned to groups or used individually.
*
* @var array
*/
protected $routeMiddleware = [
'auth' => \App\Http\Middleware\Authenticate::class,
//...
'throttle' => \App\Http\Middleware\ThrottleRequests::class,
//...
];
