Create a BaseModel class, and have all your Eloquent models extend it.

4.3 BaseModel
What's the recommended way to create some sort of base model in 4.3?
Level 5
I'm sorry. That was stupid of me. I meant a Base Controller since setupLayout() doesn't exist anymore.
Should we use some sort of service provider instead?
Level 59
What specifically are you trying to accomplish?
If you just want an abstract class that your controllers can inherit from, then just create a BaseController class that extends Controller. Same process.
Level 5
Specifically a before filter for all but a couple of my routes, but I wanted to handle it outside of routes.php. Maybe that's the best place for it though?
Level 59
Yeah - a parent controller is fine then.
