Create blade directive

It’s very easy - just add your own method in ​app/Providers/AppServiceProvider.php​ For example, if you want to have this for replace <br> tags with new lines <textarea>@br2nl($post->post_text)</textarea>

Add this directive to AppServiceProvider’s ​boot()​ method

public function boot()
{
    Blade::directive('br2nl', function ($string) {
        return "<?php echo preg_replace('/\<br(\s*)?\/?\>/i', \"\n\", $string); ?>";
    });
}
