Changelog :

V 5.1.0

What's new

1. You can now choose how the generated code validates the incoming requests data. While installing (php artisan cubeta:install api , web or react-ts) or from the GUI settings page you pick one of:
   • FormRequest : the classic Laravel form requests (the default, and what previous versions always generated)
   • DTO : validated DTOs built on top of wendelladriel/laravel-validated-dto
   • Both : generate both classes Your choice is stored in cubeta-starter.config.json under validation_type , so every later generation follows it.
2. Introducing the DTO generator, which creates a App\DTOs\<version>\<Model>\StoreUpdate<Model>DTO class extending ValidatedDTO with:
   • the same validation rules the form request gets
   • typed properties inferred from the column types (int , float , bool , string , UploadedFile), nullable columns being nullable and defaulting to null
   • casts for the castable columns (IntegerCast , FloatCast , BooleanCast , StringCast)
3. Introducing the create:dto command and a matching --dto option for create:model , alongside the existing create:request / --request .
4. wendelladriel/laravel-validated-dto is now installed for you by the api , web and react-ts installers whenever the chosen validation type includes DTOs.
5. New dto_namespace and dto_path keys in config/cubeta-starter.php to control where the generated DTOs live.
6. The generated controllers now inject the validation class you chose : a DTO is injected and read with $dto->toArray() , while a form request is still injected and read with $request->validated() . When you pick Both , both classes are generated and the controllers depend on the form request.

What has been improved

1. The generated unique column rule now uses request()->isMethod('PUT') and request()->route(...) instead of $this->isMethod(...) and $this->route(...) , so the same rule works inside form requests and DTOs alike.

V 5.0.2

What's new

1. Introducing a new FilepondInput file field for the React/Inertia dashboard, built on top of FilePond, which replaces the previous plain file Input used for file columns. It comes with:
   • Drag-and-drop uploads with image previews and file posters
   • Single or multiple file selection via the isMultiple prop
   • Accepted file-type restrictions via the acceptedFileTypes prop (defaults to common image types)
   • Automatic hydration of existing Media values on edit forms, so already-uploaded files show up in the field
   • Standard field styling, label and validation error handling consistent with the other form fields
2. File columns now generate the FilepondInput component instead of a basic file input, and edit forms pre-fill the field with the current media.
3. The required FilePond plugins (image preview, file poster, file-type validation and EXIF orientation) are registered automatically in the dashboard layout, and all filepond / react-filepond packages are installed automatically by the React/TS packages installer.

V 5.0.1

What's new

1. Introducing a brand-new rich-text editor for the React/Inertia dashboard built on top of Tiptap, replacing the previous editor setup. The editor ships with a full toolbar out of the box:
   • Text formatting: bold, italic, text color and font family
   • Block elements: headings (H1–H6), blockquotes, bullet and ordered lists, horizontal rules
   • Rich content: links, images (by URL), tables, YouTube embeds and multi-column layouts
   • A live footer showing character and word counts
   • Debounced auto-save so content is committed to the form without an explicit save on every keystroke
   • An extraButtons prop so you can inject your own toolbar buttons with access to the editor instance
2. Introducing the TextEditor form field that wraps the Tiptap editor with the standard field styling, label, required indicator and validation error handling used across the other form fields.
3. Introducing the TranslatableTextEditor component for rich-text content that needs to be translated across multiple languages, following the same pattern as the other translatable form fields and integrating with the FormLocaleProvider language switcher.
4. All required @tiptap/* packages are now installed automatically by the React/TS packages installer, so the editor works with no extra setup.

V 5.0.0

This is a major release that upgrades the whole stack to Laravel 13 and rebuilds the generated React

dashboard on top of shadcn/ui. Because of the framework bump and the frontend rewrite it is a breaking

change, so we made it a major version.

What's new

1. Adding support for Laravel 13 and dropping support for previous versions (now requires PHP 8.3+).
2. The generated React/Inertia dashboard is now built on top of shadcn/ui , so you get a full set of accessible, themeable UI primitives (dialog , drawer , sidebar , select , calendar , popover , dropdown-menu , tabs , card , chart and more) published straight into your project.
3. A components.json file is now generated so you can pull additional shadcn components into your project using the shadcn CLI.
4. Introducing light/dark mode out of the box through a new theme-provider (powered by next-themes) with a ready-made theme toggle in the dashboard header.
5. Toast notifications now use sonner via a dedicated toaster-provider , replacing the old react-toastify / sweetalert2 setup.
6. Introducing the SerializedMedia serializer and a new MediaValidationRule to standardize how uploaded files are validated and represented across requests, resources and the frontend.
7. New form field components generated for the dashboard, including a date-picker (backed by react-day-picker), checkbox , radio , textarea and reworked translatable inputs.
8. A new FormLocaleProvider replaces the old translatable inputs context to manage the active locale of translatable fields inside your forms.

What has been improved

1. Upgraded the frontend toolchain: Inertia React 3 , Vite 8 , TypeScript 7 and Tailwind CSS 4.3 , with lucide-react icons replacing the hand-written icon components.
2. Generated Models now use the #[Fillable] attribute instead of the $fillable array, matching Laravel 13 conventions and keeping model classes cleaner.
3. Auth flashes and redirects now use Inertia flash data instead of session flashes for a smoother SPA experience, and the auth screens ship with a dedicated AuthLayout .
4. The config/cubeta-starter.php paths now use join_paths() so generation works consistently across operating systems.
5. Command execution inside the generator now runs through proc_open instead of shell_exec , capturing both stdout and stderr and streaming output in real time for more reliable installs.
6. Improved log handling and caching in the generation engine for more reliable and readable output.
7. Added richer static-analysis annotations (#[ExpectedValues] , #[FileReference]) across the source for a better developer experience when contributing to or extending the package.
8. Standardized all generated frontend file and import paths to lowercase for consistency.

Fixing some bugs

1. Fixed ApiSelect typing and its handling of multiple-selection updates.
2. Fixed media handling and file serialization edge cases in the generated resources and casts.
3. Various fixes across the generated Inertia pages, auth screens and dashboard components.

Notes / breaking changes

1. The cubeta-starter-templates publish tag and its template-customization workflow have been removed.
2. The policy_path / policy_namespace config entries were removed from config/cubeta-starter.php .
3. Because of the shadcn/ui rewrite, previously published dashboard components live under new lowercase paths , so re-publish the frontend assets when upgrading an existing project.
