Get URI from route name

Hi @keevitaja,

If I understand well you could use the Request object to get it as follow:

$uri = Request::path();

See more info about it: http://laravel.com/docs/4.2/requests#request-information

Lots of options, like Request::url(), Request::fullUrl(), Request::path().

Whoops - @codeatbusiness beat me to it. :)

Sorry @JeffreyWay :) your reply is great, I didn't know all those methods.

Thanks

@JeffreyWay

Sorry, this is not it!

Lets say i have a named route user.create which points to user/create uri and i want to get the corresponding url, i can do

$url->route('user.create') and i get http://mysite/user/create

Is it possible to get just the uri? without protocol and domain!

Route::getResourceUri(); is what you are looking for possibly?

Hi @keevitaja,

Using the method inyection with the new Router class I would make as follow.

In the BaseController you can add the following method:

    public function routeToURI(Router $router) 
   {
            return str_replace('.', '/', $router->currentRouteName());
    }

Don't forget import the Illuminate\Routing\Router class.

You could make the full path using the request object.

@codeatbusiness route name and uri do not have to match! So this solution does not do it!

@TravisBlasingame this gives me weird result: reminders/{reminders}/token/{token}/create

Without stuff between {} it would be ok.

edit: Currently i get the URL and remove the protocol and domain. So i can get the URI... Just wondering if there is a better solution.

\URL::route($route, [], false);

The false is for the $absolute flag in the UrlGenerator. Without absolute, it just returns the Uri.

@TravisBlasingame thanx!

My pleasure :)

$router = app()->make('router');

dd($router->getCurrentRoute()->uri);

... from 2 years ago, but in Laravel 5.4 that's a way to obtain the uri :)

Neigher of methods worked for me in Laravel 5.5. I was able to find URI by this:

uri_for(route('ua.index'))->getPath();

Laravel 5.7:

route('ua.index', [], false);
