My Add form code
<form method="post" name="m_form" action="{{url('post')}}">
<input type="hidden" name="_method" value="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="_token" value="zL9O2D3H70fkSrt9vziwbkf2bHBqi6O6NKk1QgQK">
<input type="text" required="" name="name" id="name" class="form-control m-input" >
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">
<form>
My Route
Route::resource('post', 'PostController');
Middleware
public function handle($request, Closure $next)
{
$nextRequest = $next($request);
dd($request->route()->getAction());
}
Now in Middleware "$request->route()->getAction()" is null
Now I want controller name and method name dynamically here all other route working fine but store route not found
Can you please guide me where I can make mistake?
Thanks.
I am learner also. I will answer and read this as I see it.
Store is not a route but a method.
How does your PostController looks like, is there store method in the PostController?
Your Route also looks like a single action controller.
Lets see what is inside this PostController.
PostController
public function store(Request $request){
$requested_data = $request->all();
dd($requested_data);
}
Before going to PostController I used middleware I need a route in the middleware.
Should Route look like this?
Route::resource('post', 'PostController@store');
Ahh, sorry you have it as a resource.
Maybe try to dd($nextRequest....
public function handle($request, Closure $next)
{
$nextRequest = $next($request);
dd($nextRequest->route()->getAction());
}
Response is 'null'
Strange it should work, but this middleware is still suspicious.
Can you try just dd ?
public function handle($request, Closure $next)
{
dd($request);
}
That way we'll see full request data. And check if there is method name.
what are you intending to do with middleware?
Just type below command and display over here.
php artisan route:list
My middleware file
Use Middleware for roles and permission check.
Controller and its method allowed or not check for the specific role.
It's working all other method but for the default store method, it's not working.
Route response will be null
<?php
namespace App\Http\Middleware;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Gate;
use Closure;
use Route;
class AuthPermission
{
/**
* Handle an incoming request.
*
* @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* @param \Closure $next
* @return mixed
*/
public function handle($request, Closure $next)
{
$nextRequest = $next($request);
$getActionName = $request->route()->getAction();
if(isset($getActionName['controller']) && !empty($getActionName['controller'])){
$getActionPath = $getActionName['controller'];
if(strpos($getActionPath, '@') !== false) {
$controller_path_array = explode('@',$getActionName['controller']);
$controller_name_with_path = current($controller_path_array);
if(strpos($controller_name_with_path, '\') !== false) {
$controller_split = explode('\',$controller_name_with_path);
$controller_name = end($controller_split);
$method_name = end($controller_path_array);
$permission_name = $controller_name . "_" . $method_name;
if (!app('auth')->guest()) {
if (! Gate::allows($permission_name)) {
return abort(401);
}
}
}
}
}
return $nextRequest;
}
}
Please check the response.

In the route list, it's displayed.
| | POST | admin/post/store | admin. | App\Http\Controllers\Backend\PostController@store | web,auth |
Now, still its null response in middleware.
Have you used as like below in your PostController.
public function __construct()
{
$this->middleware('AuthPermission');
}
public function store(Request $request)
{
$requested_data = $request->all();
dd($requested_data);
}
No not used like this.
construct not used.
public function __construct()
{
$this->middleware('AuthPermission');
}
Use as like and check.
the null response in middleware.
public function handle($request, Closure $next)
{
$nextRequest = $next($request);
dd($request->route());
}
Controller
public function __construct()
{
$this->middleware('authpermission');
}
If I set a route then it's work.
Route::post('post/store','admin\PostController@store');
Middleware
Route {#528 ▼
+uri: "admin/post/store"
+methods: array:2 [▶]
+action: array:7 [▶]

#router: Router {#34 ▶}

}
But if I want to use the default store method of resource then it's not work
Route::resource('post', 'admin\PostController');
null
You have to use as like below and check i think with url that problem occured.
Route::resource('post/store', 'admin\PostController');
and form
<form method="post" name="m_form" action="{{url('post/store')}}">
Use capital URL or Route not route.
<form method="post" name="m_form" action="{{URL('post/store')}}">
@MUNAZZIL - Ok, I will try and get back to you.
Remove the name="m_form" from that form tag.
Required comes that single word only.
<input type="text" required name="name" id="name" class="form-control m-input" >
@MUNAZZIL - No luck.
null response.
What is the laravel version? and php version?
Form name with or without it won't affect.
required="required" placed.
it's not working.
use only required as like i mention.
required
Can you show your PostController over here?

@MUNAZZIL - My PostController
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers\Admin;

use Redirect;
use App\Post;
class PostController extends Controller
{
public function __construct()
{
$this->middleware('authpermission');
}
/*
* Display a listing of the post.

public function index()
{
$meta_title = trans('label.post_title');
$meta_keyword = trans('label.post_keyword');
$meta_description = trans('label.post_description');
return view('admin.post.index', array(
'meta_title' => $meta_title,

}

));
}
/*
* Save post
*/
public function store($request){
$requested_data = $request->all();
dd($requested_data);
}
}
use like below and check.
public function handle($request, Closure $next)
{
$nextRequest = $next($request);
$getActionName = $request->route()->getAction();
if(isset($getActionName['controller']) && !empty($getActionName['controller'])){
$getActionPath = $getActionName['controller'];
if(strpos($getActionPath, '@') !== false) {
$controller_path_array = explode('@',$getActionName['controller']);
$controller_name_with_path = current($controller_path_array);
if(strpos($controller_name_with_path, '\') !== false) {
$controller_split = explode('\',$controller_name_with_path);
$controller_name = end($controller_split);
$method_name = end($controller_path_array);
$permission_name = $controller_name . "_" . $method_name;
if (!app('auth')->guest($guest)) {
if (! Gate::allows($permission_name)) {
return abort(401);
}
}
}
}
}
return $nextRequest;
}
Store function use as like below you have to pass two param.
public function store(Request $request){
$requested_data = $request->all();
dd($requested_data);
}
Hey @munazzil
public function handle($request, Closure $next)
{
$nextRequest = $next($request);
dd($request->route());
$request->route() is null so display error while using $request->route()->getAction();
