Create a BaseController and extend that.
class BaseController extends Controller {
// your generic Session code here
}
class MyController extends BaseController {
// all your standard stuff here
}

Include common tasks like session.
Hello Everybody .. I want to know the suitable way to include common tasks like session in every controllers. I have been doing this using constructor but its really really repetitive. Here's my code.
use Illuminate\Session\Store as Session;
class MyController extends Controller {
protected $session;
protected $data;
/**
* @param Session $session
*/
public function __construct(Session $session){
$this->session = $session;
$session->has('info')?$this->data['info'] = $session->pull('info'):'';
$session->has('task')?$this->data['task'] = $session->pull('task'):'';
}
These sessions are required for every controllers ..

What you do is create a BaseController like this
class BaseController extends Controller {
public function __construct(Session $session) {
$this->session = $session;
$session->has('info')?$this->data['info'] = $session->pull('info'):'';
$session->has('task')?$this->data['task'] = $session->pull('task'):'';
}
}
Now you extend all your controllers that use the session with that BaseController
One question though, why do you need the sessions? There might be a better way to solve this ;)

@bobbybouwmann I need these for displaying messages to users... n I would like to hear the better way for this?

The better way would be this, so let the response or the redirect handle the sessions
return redirect()->route('whatever')->with('info', 'Test Message')->with('task', 'Task');
