#CSRF Refresh for Laravel

Automatic CSRF token refresh for Laravel applications to prevent token expiration on long-lived pages.

#Installation

Install the package via Composer:

composer require brunoabpinto/csrf-refresh

The package will automatically register its service provider via Laravel's package auto-discovery.

#Usage

Add the @csrfRefresh Blade directive to your layout file, typically in the <head> section or before the closing </body> tag:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <meta name="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}">
    <!-- other head elements -->
</head>
<body>
    <!-- your content -->

    @csrfRefresh
</body>
</html>

#How It Works

The package registers a route at /csrf-token/refresh that returns a fresh CSRF token
A JavaScript file is automatically published to public/vendor/csrf-refresh/
The script periodically fetches a new CSRF token and updates the <meta name="csrf-token"> element
The refresh interval is calculated based on your session lifetime configuration (refreshes 50 seconds before expiration)

#Publishing Assets

The JavaScript file is automatically published on first boot. To manually update the assets after a package update:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=csrf-refresh-assets --force

#Requirements

PHP 8.1 or higher
Laravel 10.x or 11.x
