What happens when you try this?
Route::bind('strategy', function ($value)
{
dd($value); // Check if the value is correct
// return \App\Article\Strategy::where('slug', $value)->first();
});

Route model binding with slug instead of id
What I want is the route model binding functionality (accessing Strategy $strategy as a method argument) for custom routes which use title slugs rather than ids.
I have this in RSP
Route::bind('strategy', function($value) {
return \App\Article\Strategy::where('slug', $value)->first();
});
and this in my routes file:
Route::get(\Lang::get('slugs.strategy').'/{strategy}', 'ArticleController@showStrategy');
It simply does not work. RouteServiceProvider is loaded in app.php, yet I cannot dump anything in it. Accessing Strategy $strategy results in an empty skeleton object. What's going on here?
// @JeffreyWay, pressing altgr in the laracasts editor does not work, please fix it
Level 3
@blackbird nothing, it just does not get dumped, like it didn't execute at all

Then the binding of route is not working! Does it show any result when you change it back to look for an id?
Level 3
@blackbird How should a fresh install's RouteServiceProvider register() method look like btw?
Level 4
could you try this:
$router->bind('strategy', function($value) {
return \App\Article\Strategy::whereSlug( $value)->first();
});

config/app.php
providers => [
// ...
'App\Providers\RouteServiceProvider',
];
yet nothing works, not even a die

A composer update from 5.0.0. to 5.0.2. solves the problem.
