I need to put in my domain directories a simple php script that have to run isolated from the rest of my laravel application.
For example if my Laravel app run on www.example.com.
If I call www.example.com/do_something_here/
and this do_something_here is a subfolder of my project that do not respond by the rules of Laravel routes.
Is it possible?
For you situation if your folder in public directory then (folder name should be: do_something_here)
change your .htaccess file for permission to access the folder. so that user can direct view your folder
Example:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ public/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
You can do it. Whatever request comes to your site, it will hit your index.php. Present inside the public/ directory and then the routing, classloading processes happens.
You might want to add some rules there in the index.php(you can write it just after the <?php line.) before the application bootstrapping happens, by checking the request URL, ($_REQUEST) and execute specific scripts and return.
One other way is to add rules in the .htaccess file if it's enabled. a quick google will find you way
The way I handle this is to use routes, catch all for any other page.
Routes
Route::get('functionName/{slugFolderName}/{slugFileName}', [
'uses' => 'PageController@getPage'
])->where('slug', '([A-Za-z0-9-/]+)');
This will match slugs like
test-page/sub-page
another-page/sub-page
Controller
public function getPage($slugFolderName,$slugFileName){
return view($slugFolderName.$slugFileName);
}
Hope this structure will help you
