how to use the laravel subdomain routing function

Question

I am using the following code its from the laravel 4 site

Route::group(array('domain' => '{account}.myapp.com'), function() {

    Route::get('user/{id}', function($account, $id) {
        // ...
     return Redirect::to('https://www.myapp.com'.'/'.$account);
    });

});

the idea is to redirect subdomain.myapp.com to myapp.com/user/subdomain .what I have is not working any suggestions?sorry I just started with laravel about a month now.

Answer 1

Remove user/{id} and replace it with / and then use the following url https://accountname.myapp.com and it will redirect to https://www.myapp.com/accountname

Route::group(array('domain' => '{account}.myapp.com'), function() {

    Route::get('/', function($account, $id) {
        // ...
        return Redirect::to('https://www.myapp.com'.'/'.$account);
    });

});

Edit the answer to the correct answer

Answer 2

Route::group(array('domain' => '{account}.myapp.com'), function() {

    Route::get('/', function($account) {
        // ...
        return Redirect::to('https://www.myapp.com/'.$account);
    });

});

as Marc vd M answer but remove $id from get's closure function.

why use 'https://www.myapp.com'.'/'.$account and not 'https://www.myapp.com/'.$account
