Route Resource (Edit) Not Found

Hello everyone,

I'm stumped on this one, I created a route resource in my routes file, all of the routes are working except the edit route, why? If I run php artisan route:list and the edit route is listed:

| GET|HEAD  | flyers               | flyers.index   | App\Http\Controllers\FlyerController@index |
| GET|HEAD  | flyers/create        | flyers.create  | App\Http\Controllers\FlyerController@create |
| DELETE    | flyers/{flyers}      | flyers.destroy | App\Http\Controllers\FlyerController@destroy |
| GET|HEAD  | flyers/{flyers}      | flyers.show    | App\Http\Controllers\FlyerController@show |
| PUT       | flyers/{flyers}      | flyers.update  | App\Http\Controllers\FlyerController@update |
| PATCH     | flyers/{flyers}      |                | App\Http\Controllers\FlyerController@update |
| GET|HEAD  | flyers/{flyers}/edit | flyers.edit    | App\Http\Controllers\FlyerController@edit |

My code in my routes file looks like this:

Route::resource('flyers', 'FlyerController');

Ps. this project is running Laravel v5.1

What do you get on the flyers/{param}/edit URI?

Sorry forgot to add that in my last post:

ErrorException in UrlGenerator.php line 306: Route [flyers] not defined. (View: /html/resources/views/flyers/edit.blade.php)

That means something in your view like this

{!! route('flyers') !!}

should be something like

{!! route('flyers.edit') !!}
// or
{!! route('flyers.index') !!}

I don't have anything like that in my view, here is the error for the log:

I just found this:

{!! Form::model($flyer, ['route' => ['flyers'], 'method' => 'patch', 'class' => 'form-horizontal']) !!}

I'm guessing I may need to change ['route' => ['flyers'] to something else???

bashy's avatar

You have it right there, FormBuilder.php. Used by something where you pass a named route to generate a URL or action.

#0 /html/vendor/illuminate/html/FormBuilder.php(803): Illuminate\Routing\UrlGenerator->route('flyers', Array)

Can you show your view file? See any url() action() Form::open() stuff?

Presto's avatar

You where correct, I needed to change ['route' => ['flyers'] to ['route' => ['flyers.edit'], thanks @bashy

bashy's avatar

Ah you replied with it before I submitted :) that's that sorted!

If you've got a form you want to UPDATE, you need to PUT to flyers.update

That's the destination of flyers.edit form.

This should work (not sure if you need array around the route name).

{!! Form::model($flyer, ['route' => ['flyers.update'], 'method' => 'put', 'class' => 'form-horizontal']) !!}

You had the right idea but the PATCH one doesn't have a named route for it, which is why it errored.

Presto's avatar

Awesome, that did the trick

{!! Form::model($flyer, ['route' => ['flyers.update', $flyer->flyernum], 'method' => 'put', 'class' => 'form-horizontal']) !!}

Thanks for your help @bashy!

Oh yeah you do need to pass the item ID, sorry :)
