Hello, I have this route
Route::get('/proyectos/{nombre?}/{users?}/{sortField?}/{dir?}', 'ProyectoController@index');
and its controller:
public function index($nombre='', $users='', $sortField='', $dir='')
my question is, if I don't send one parameter for example 'sortField', what is the url sintax?
If I send proyectos/nombre/user/dir the url dir value is assigned to sortField in controller
If I send proyectos/nombre/user//dir I have an error 404 (page not found)
and the url query string is not processed by laravel 5
any idea?
in this case i think it would be better if you send 0 or something and then check for that in your code.. i dont think you can ommit it like you have done - you can ommit the last one dir? i am positive but not any of the previous ones..
i am not sure what dir? is but sortfield looks like a FILTER to sort by something.. usually people use ? GET params to do that ie ?filter=name... etc
