How to use the function url() in a js file

url = <?php echo url('file/file2') ?>

Also, you might need quotes around it if its JS:

var url = "<?php echo url('file/file2'); ?>";

:D

// note the quotes
url = '<?php echo url('file/file2') ?>'

// or maybe even
url = '{!! url('file/file2') !!}'

All the solutions doesn't work :(

//Doesn't work, if I do an alert, I have nothing
url = '<?php echo url('file/file2') ?>';
url = '{!! url('file/file2') !!}';

//Doesn't work, if I do an alert, write this : .../public/<?php echo url('file/file2'); ?>
var url = "<?php echo url('file/file2'); ?>";

You need to do this within <script> tags in your layout view. Are you trying to load this through an external js file?

<script>
    var url = "<?php echo url('file/file2'); ?>";
</script>

It doesnt work in a js file as they are not parsed.

You have to put this in a blade template between script tags. Because the blade template is parsed so php is interpreted.

The strategy is to declare all your variables in the blade file then pass them to a js function defined in your js file.

Jeffrey has a package for passing PHP variables to javascript here:

It might be overkill for your situation though.

@pimous All example will not work ! In *.js file you are unable to use php or blade tag

it is a subject that dates a long time ago but I still come with my element of response in your view blade header you can do it

<divtype="hidden" id="path" value="url('/')">

and in all your js or jquery file , you make

var path = $("#path").val();

and when you want to put url , just do

example : href="'+path+'/nameofroute"
