Getting Only The Path From Named Route

You can get it from the request Check out the docs for more info.

$uri = $request->path();

Thanks for your reply.

Maybe I should've been a little more clear. Sorry. The purpose of me getting the path only of a named route is so I can reference only the name of the route whenever I would like to do redirections throughout the application. For instance

public function fooMethod ()
{
    ...some validation code...

    ...once validation has passed...

    ...redirect here...

    return redirect({namedRoute});


}

The named route of course is described in the route file:

Route::get('/url/path', Controller@method)->name('namedRoute');

Where namedRoute would give me the path assigned to it. I'm wanting to do this just in case I need to change the name of the url paths at any time. I therefore wouldn't have to go change the hardcoded path in multiple files.

Sorry. I think I am still a little confused. If you want to redirect to the named route why not just use the named route in your redirect.

return redirect()->route('the.named.route');

Okay. So maybe I just used the function incorrectly?

I used it like so:

return redirect(route('the.named.route'));

Is this right or will I get a different result?

That will get you the same result as what I previously posted. Try it out both ways to prove it.

Okay so either way gives me "http://domain.com/url/path". All I want is /url/path. Anyway to do this?

Sorry. I am still confused as to why you want /url/path. As per your post:

The purpose of me getting the path only of a named route is so I can reference only the name of the route whenever I would like to do redirections throughout the application.

That is precisely what the route() helper function is for. To generate a url based on a named route. You are still free to change the url in your routes.php. As long as you don't change the name of the route, this will continue to work.

I also have the same goal as this. My intention is that since I have so many links inside my view, having the host/domain part seems to be so redundant and a waste of bandwidth.

Ooops! Found it in Laravel 5.3

route($name, $parameters = [], $absolute = true)

set the third parameter to false

<a href="{{ route('namedRoute',[],false) }}" />
