Switching Between Blade and Inertia


Controller

To start with, you will want to switch the BaseController::response() method to the version you want to use.

For Inertia, it should look like this:

public function response($data = [], $page = null, $layout = null)
{
    return $this->inertia($data, $page);
}

For Blade, it should look like this:

public function response($data = [], $page = null, $layout = null)
{
    $this->setViewData($data);
    return $this->view($page, $layout);
}

As long as all of your controller have been using the response() method, this will handle everything. If you are using the unique methods (view(), inertia(), success(), error(), ajaxResponse()) you will need to switch those individually.

You can also freely remove the UsesInertia trait from the BaseController.

Users

If you are using the JumpGate/Users package, you have a few more things to fo. In the config/jumpgate/users.php file, you would want to switch your driver entry to either blade or inertia depending. Next, you will want to republish the user files so that it can load the correct ones.

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="JumpGate\Users\Providers\UsersServiceProvider"

This will do a few things. Without the --force flag it wont overwrite any existing files, so make sure to leave this off if you have already begun working with the use files. The main reason you are calling this is to get the auth and admin front end files. The blade files will be located in resources/views/vendor/. The inertia ones will be in resoirces/js/Pages. In either case it creates folder for admin and auth. Whichever one you switch to, you can safely delete the other versions.

{info} All the controllers in the users package use the response() method. There is no need to update the controllers.
