Some Laravel 5 compatible packages
Recently some of the Laravel-packages I built at Spatie were updated for Laravel 5.
spatie/laravel-glide This package enables you to generate image manipulations on the fly and generate URL's to those images. These URL's will be signed so only you will be able to specify which manipulations should be generated. Every manipulation will be cached. Under the hood, Glide is being used.
spatie/searchindex This is an opinionated package to store and retrieve objects from Elasticsearch. It was tailormade for a project I was working on and only provides the functionality that I needed. If you need full control over elasticsearch via PHP, take a look at the official low-level client.
spatie/googlesearch This package can fetch results from a Google Custom Search Engine. It returns an array with searchresults.
eloquent-sortable This package provides a trait that adds sortable behaviour to an Eloquent model. The value of the ordercolumn of a new record of a model is determined by the maximum value of the ordercolumn of all records of that model + 1.
A big thank you goes out to Matthias De Winter, who is helping me update these packages.
