Statamic "blade directives" addon issue / better implementation?

[torian257x]

I encountered this issue here:
https://github.com/edalzell/statamic-blade/issues/68

now edalzell does not seem very active (closed the issue I referenced after months? without a comment)

in short, his addon json_serializes everything that can be json serialized in the view if you use his ViewServiceProvider. Including eloquent models, Enums and I am sure, a lot more.

that is a bit unexpected, I expected his addon to make it easier to use statamic values, not that he messes with data that isn't statamic.

Is there another "check" that one could use instead of $data instanceof JsonSerializable that would lead to a more expected behaviour and work any way?

like, before I start coming up with my own checks, I thought I'd rather ask the experts for some advice.

This isn't really the place to be asking about third party addons. It looks like he fixed the issue you referenced. Did you update?

ahh now I see, didn't notice his commit, thanks a lot for the pointer.

Seems like he hasn't released a new version....

But I don't seem to be able to see why this would solve the problem. It only restricts the problem now to statamic routes.
So slightly better (?), but feels a bit more like a "patchwork" fix than a proper fix. Just imagine, you use a template once via statamic, once via normal route. Gives you completely different results now. Is that better? probably actually worse.

3rd party addons>
I read that you are

going to elevate Blade with some love and attention

if it helps I can reformulate the question so you cannot argue 3rd party addon 😇

but it's a bit childish, no? "I have data, please gimme easy to use data with values"
