Master route | Laravel.io

replied 8 years ago

I would probably specify them all - although if you have a ton of routes in a dashboard you might want to think about splitting them out into different controllers

That said, you can use parameters in your routes:

Route::get('url/dashboard/{section}/{action}/{id}', 'DashboardController@dashboardMethod')->name('dashboard-method');

Controller:

public function dashboardMethod($section, $action, $id)
{
    ....
}

But what if I go to 'url/section' without any other parameters? Do I need to make a route without other attributes, or just set default value to null to attributes that are not used?

Splitting to different controllers... Like if I need Posts data for overview table instead of making method in Dashboard make getPostsOverviewForDashboard in PostController?

"But what if I go to 'url/section' without any other parameters? Do I need to make a route without other attributes, or just set default value to null to attributes that are not used?"

Route::get('url/dashboard/{section?}/{action?}/{id?}', 'DashboardController@dashboardMethod')->name('dashboard-method');

public function dashboardMethod($section = null, $action = null, $id = null)
{
    if($section)
    {
        ...
    }
    
}

"Splitting to different controllers... Like if I need Posts data for overview table instead of making method in Dashboard make getPostsOverviewForDashboard in PostController?"

It really depends on your app you might have:

dashboard/posts.php
dashboard/comments.php
....

Really depends on how you want to organise it
