README

Please, don't just put plain raw emails on your web pages. Bots are going to scrape your pages and fill all of our inboxes with spam emails.

Obfuscate emails and strings in PHP and Laravel to keep those nasty bots away from finding your email or worse, your users' emails.

This package uses different strategies to obfuscate clickable and non-clickable emails, so you can choose what suits your needs best.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require mokhosh/muddle

Usage

In Laravel Projects:

{{-- instead of handing your emails to spammers like this: --}}
<a href="mailto:{{ $user->email }}">{{ $user->name }}</a>

{{-- do this: --}}
<x-muddle-link :email="$user->email" :title="$user->name" />

{{-- and we will confuscate the email in random ways to make it impossible for bots to steal your emails --}}

{{-- default strategy components based on config --}}
<x-muddle-link email="test@example.com" title="email" /> {{-- muddled email link --}}
<x-muddle-text email="test@example.com" /> {{-- muddled email text --}}

{{-- specific link strategy components --}}
<x-muddle-random email="test@example.com" title="email" /> {{-- picks a random strategy each time --}}
<x-muddle-append email="test@example.com" title="email" />
<x-muddle-concatenation email="test@example.com" title="email" />
<x-muddle-encrypt email="test@example.com" title="email" />
<x-muddle-entities email="test@example.com" title="email" />
<x-muddle-hex email="test@example.com" title="email" />
<x-muddle-rotate email="test@example.com" title="email" />

{{-- specific text strategy components --}}
<x-muddle-text-random email="test@example.com" /> {{-- picks a random strategy each time --}}
<x-muddle-text-append email="test@example.com" />
<x-muddle-text-concatenation email="test@example.com" />
<x-muddle-text-display-none email="test@example.com" />
<x-muddle-text-encrypt email="test@example.com" />
<x-muddle-text-entities email="test@example.com" />
<x-muddle-text-hex email="test@example.com" />
<x-muddle-text-rotate email="test@example.com" />

use Mokhosh\Muddle\Facades\Muddle;
use Mokhosh\Muddle\Strategies\Text;
use Mokhosh\Muddle\Strategies\Link;

// default strategy
Muddle::text('test@example.com');
Muddle::link('test@example.com');

// specific strategy
Muddle::strategy(text: new Text\Encrypt)->text('test@example.com')
Muddle::strategy(link: new Link\Encrypt)->link('test@example.com');

    link: new Link\Random,
);

$muddle->link('test@example.com');
