Linking a CSS image URL in laravel

Question

I want to add a background-image with a laravel URL. I can do this by just including the web path itself but I would like to use Laravel URL.

Here is how I do it now:

.mystyle{
background-image: url("www.myproject.com/assets/img/background.png")
}

Here is how I want it:

.mystyle{
background-image: url("{{ URL::asset('assets/img/background.png }}") 
}

Any clues?

Answer 1

I have used inline css for a class and this is what actually worked in my case

  style=" background-image: url('{{asset('images/cover.jpg')}}');"

Answer 2

You can even use it like this:

.mystyle{
    background-image: url("/assets/img/background.png") 
}
