Cannot use array as a parameter on request()->is() anymore

[markandrewkato]

• Laravel Version: 5.6.28
• PHP Version: 7.2.5
• Database Driver & Version: MySQL 5.7

Description:

After updating my Laravel version from 5.6.25 to 5.6.28, using array as a parameter on request()->is() doesn't work anymore. It shows the ff. error:

preg_quote() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given

I checked the file vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Http/Request.php and saw that the function for "is" method has changed on the newer version.

I think its much easier to pass array on request()->is rather than doing multiple request()->is with a string parameter.

Steps To Reproduce:

Updated my Laravel version from 5.6.25 to 5.6.28, and using the ff. code doesn't work anymore:

if (request()->is(['pattern1', 'pattern2']))

This is already being addressed #24885

In the meantime, you can fix it by simply splatting your array (->is(...$array))

I see. Thanks. Closing this issue.
