Laravel request accept json middleware

This middleware adds the ability to automatically add the Accept application/json header to every request if it was not provided.

Requirements

• PHP >= 8.5
• Laravel 12.x

Installation

Via composer:

composer require softonic/laravel-request-accept-json-middleware

Documentation

To use the middleware register it in app/Http/Kernel.php

    protected $middleware
        = [
            ...
            RequestAcceptJson::class,
            ...
        ];

From now on the header Accept: application/json will be automatically added to every request.
