Redirect::route with parameter in URL in Laravel 5

Question

I'm developing a Laravel 5 app, I have this route

Route::get('states/{id}/regions', ['as' => 'regions', 'uses' => 'RegionController@index']);

In my controller, after I make a post call correctly, I want to redirect to that view, with this command:

return \Redirect::route('regions')->with('message', 'State saved correctly!!!');

The problem is that I don't know how can I pass {id} parameter, which should be in my URL.

Thank you.

Answer 1

You can pass the route parameters as second argument to route():

return \Redirect::route('regions', [$id])->with('message', 'State saved correctly!!!');

If it's only one you also don't need to write it as array:

return \Redirect::route('regions', $id)->with('message', 'State saved correctly!!!');

In case your route has more parameters, or if it has only one, but you want to clearly specify which parameter has each value (for readability purposes), you can always do this:

return \Redirect::route('regions', ['id'=>$id,'OTHER_PARAM'=>'XXX',...])->with('message', 'State saved correctly!!!');

Answer 2

You could still do it like this:

return redirect()->route('regions', $id)->with('message', 'State saved correctly!!!');

In cases where you have multiple parameters, you can pass the parameters as an array, for example: say you had to pass the capital of a particular region in you route, your route could look something like the following:

Route::get('states/{id}/regions/{capital}', ['as' => 'regions', 'uses' => 'RegionController@index']);

and you can then redirect using:

return redirect()->route('regions', ['id' => $id, 'capital' => $capital])->with('message', 'State saved correctly!');

Answer 3

There are several ways to redirect this URL in laravel:

1. Using URL with a global redirect helper function

   return redirect('states/'.$id.'/regions')->with('message', 'State saved correctly!!!');  
   

2. Using named route

   return redirect()->route('regions', ['id' => $id])->with('message', 'State saved correctly!!!');
   

3. Using controller action

   return redirect()->action('RegionController@index', ['id' => $id])->with('message', 'State saved correctly!!!');
   

Answer 4

You can use the following

return redirect(route('addPost1',['pid',$post->id]));

OR

return redirect(route('addPost1'))->with('pid',$post->id);
