How to load blade or php content into a view via ajax/jquery in laravel?

Question

As the title says, I am trying to dynamically load content in a view using ajax requests. I know this can be done if you are using html elements e.g. ("#div_place").html(<p>...). The problem lies when I would like to load some php/blade objects into a div for instance. Is this possible or is there a different way to go about achieving the result I want.

Answer 1

This is pretty straightforward. Assuming you're using jQuery...

1. create a route that will respond to the AJAX call and return an HTML fragment

   Route::get('test', function(){
   
       // this returns the contents of the rendered template to the client as a string
       return View::make("mytemplate")
           ->with("value", "something")
           ->render();
   
   });
   

2. in your javascript:

   $.get(
       "test",
       function (data) {
           $("#my-content-div").html(data);
       }
   );
