Perl and PHP Regular Expressions

PHP regexes are based on the PCRE (Perl-Compatible Regular Expressions), so any regexp that works for one should be compatible with the other or any other language that makes use of the PCRE format. Here are some commonly needed regular expressions for both PHP and Perl. Each regex will be in string format and will include delimiters.
All Major Credit Cards

This regular expression will validate all major credit cards: American Express (Amex), Discover, Mastercard, and Visa.

    //All major credit cards regex
    '/^(?:4[0-9]{12}(?:[0-9]{3})?|5[1-5][0-9]{14}|6011[0-9]{12}|622((12[6-9]|1[3-9][0-9])|([2-8][0-9][0-9])|(9(([0-1][0-9])|(2[0-5]))))[0-9]{10}|64[4-9][0-9]{13}|65[0-9]{14}|3(?:0[0-5]|[68][0-9])[0-9]{11}|3[47][0-9]{13})*$/'

Challenge: you need a flexible (swap in other repository implementations) way to display some kind of resource. Let's say, Posts. What does your folder structure look like?

Requirements:

• Repository implements an interface
• Must show at least one implementation of the interface (Eloquent version is fine)
• The interface is injected into your PostsController.
• Show where you register your IoC bindings
• Show folder structure. Where are interfaces/repositories stored?

Never Expose DB Results Directly

1. If you rename a field, then your users are fucked. Convert with a hardcoded array structure.
2. Most DB drivers [for PHP] will show integers as numeric strings and false as "0", so you want to typecast them.
3. Unless you're using an ORM with "hidden" functionality, people will see passwords, salts and all sorts of fancy codes. If you add one and forget to put it in your $hidden array then OOPS!

Use the URI sparingly, and correctly

1. Use the query string for paired params instead of /users/id/5/active/true. Your API does not need to be SEO optimised.
2. ?format=xml is stupid, use an Accept: application/xml header. I added this to the CodeIgniter Rest Server once for lazy people, and now people think it's a thing. It's not.
