Laravel access request object outside controller

Question

According to the Laravel documentation Request is acquired via dependency injection. For a controller this is fine, but how do we access Request object outside a controller, for example in a view

Answer 1

There is request helper in laravel. You can use Request Object anywhere. For example

request()->field_name 

Here's laravel documentation link for request helper https://laravel.com/docs/5.2/helpers#method-request
