Okay. styleci makes things annoying. If necessary I can squash all commits down.

I also can't find where blade gets tested.

IMHO, you should define the @has, is it "has section" or "is yielding content nothing" ?

For example, if a section foo

@section("foo", "0 ");

, the @has("foo") results in false. (empty(trim("0 ") --> true)

Ah yes. Perhaps the fix is to check length > 0, rather than empty?

And should it perhaps be called hasYield? Though to me that is not as clean

Intuitively, I think @has is to test if a view variable exists ...
I really prefer @hasYield

I have a custom blade directive in one of my projects that works like this:

@display('title', 'Site Name', '% - Site Name')

It yields the section content as it is if exists, if not then the second argument will be displayed. If the third argument has a value it'll yield the section content based on the format.

Maybe such directive can be used to provide the same functionality instead of a condition, otherwise I believe @hasSection should end with @endhassection just like @endcan. Or maybe make it @ifHasSection so that it may end with @endif.

I would like @hassection with @endsection or @hasyield with @endhasyield.
Although the word is long, it is more clear

I agree that the endif is strange, and can easily have a @endhas added (or equivalent).

Before I make any changes on this then, I'd like to get @taylorotwell input on this. Which direction do you think this should go (if any?).

I believe you can also already do @yield('title', 'Site Name');

Does that solve your problem?

@taylorotwell, the problem is something must show if title section exist, not your example something must show if title doesn't exist

Yeah, the use case here for me is a conditional one.

Renamed to @hasSection

Great! Today I actually was searching for something like this, in my case I needed to put default HTML content for section, using second argument for @yield doesn't go easily with more complex HTML or if it has blade directives.

Btw, if somebody interested, I used this approach:

     @if (View::hasSection('profile-image'))
        @yield('profile-image')
     @else
        <div class="my-html-stuff">{{ $andMyData }}</div>
     @endif

@taylorotwell Do you want a PR with @endhassection in it too? Or has that been added by yourself already / you're happy with @endif
