GET request $request->getContent() is empty

You can use this way:

$content = $request->all();

$content = $request->all();

Log::info('app.requests', ['request' => $content, 'method' => $request->method()]);

will return empty content too

[2018-05-28 12:22:12] local.INFO: app.requests {"request":[],"method":"GET"} 

Can you give me your URL link? i think you need to pass like this way as parameters: URL + '?name=test&city=padvadar' etc.

Try to use $request->query() like so:

Log::info('app.requests', ['request' => $request->query(), 'method' => $request->method()]);

https://laravel.com/docs/5.6/requests#retrieving-input

@hdsavani but i can't pass to url, because api sending to my in content

@R3l4x3 Not working

[2018-05-28 12:31:13] local.INFO: app.requests {"request":[],"method":"GET"} 

I mean if you have this URL: http://localhost:8000/post?name=test&city=padvadar

Then you will get like this way:

$content = $request->all();
dd($content)

The output will be this way:

[
    'name' => 'test',
    'city' => 'padvadar'
]

I think you need to check api or url that you run.

@hdsavani Thats ok, but api send xml content in the header of request and i need to get it from here. I can't change the api.

@MrFiliper if I recall you get it as follows:

// no function just key
$var =  $request->key 

which is equal to

echo ($_REQUEST['key']);

///you could also

$var =  $request['key']

Note if it is an API returning XML lets say Pardot then you would parse the curl to xml

$response = new SimpleXMLElement( $pardotApiResponse  );

if ( $response->result) {
       $campaign = $response->result
 }

also worth noting that $name = $request->input('user.name'); only works if e Content-Type header of the request is properly set to application/json

is response coming form an API or form? is a GET or a POST, via curl() or how?

btw, this the request getContent() method.

 /**
     * Returns the request body content.
     *
     * @param bool $asResource If true, a resource will be returned
     *
     * @return string|resource The request body content or a resource to read the body stream
     *
     * @throws \LogicException
     */
    public function getContent($asResource = false)
    {
        $currentContentIsResource = is_resource($this->content);

        if (true === $asResource) {
            if ($currentContentIsResource) {
                rewind($this->content);

                return $this->content;
            }

            // Content passed in parameter (test)
            if (is_string($this->content)) {
                $resource = fopen('php://temp', 'r+');
                fwrite($resource, $this->content);
                rewind($resource);

                return $resource;
            }

            $this->content = false;

            return fopen('php://input', 'rb');
        }

        if ($currentContentIsResource) {
            rewind($this->content);

            return stream_get_contents($this->content);
        }

        if (null === $this->content || false === $this->content) {
            $this->content = file_get_contents('php://input');
        }

        return $this->content;
    }

I don't know if something like this would help you or not: https://github.com/orchestral/parser

But you could search Github, there is probably an XML package that exist for your needs.

The problem is in laravel router (web.php). API send POST request to router, but laravel ? transofrm ? request to GET request and all the data disappeared. To resolve the issue i use laravel api router (api.php), there I configure POST request and now it works with $request->getContent().

Thanks all for help! I appreciate it.
