Passing LazyCollection to Blade view causes query to execute twice

[awebartisan]

• Laravel Version: 8.61.0
• PHP Version: 7.4.22
• Database Driver & Version: MySQL v8

Description:

When a LazyCollection instance is passed to Blade view and looped via @foreach directive, it causes the query to execute twice. Believe that its because of how foreach directive is compiled under the hood and how count and last record of the Countable is managed inside ManagesLoops file.

Steps To Reproduce:

• Inside controller or route file

    $users = User::lazy();
    return view('welcome', ['users' => $users]);

• Inside blade view

    @foreach($users as $user)
        <div>{{ $user->name }}</div>
    @endforeach

• Queries detected using Ray

Yes, that's indeed how things work atm. I don't really see a bug here tbh.

@driesvints can it be a feature request? Where Blade compiler pays attention to specifics of LazyCollection and deal it differently than normal Collection?

Sure but this issue tracker isn't for feature requests. If you can, feel free to PR something 👍
