Best Way to return multiple variables to view in laravel

Question

I have an action method which has in its body multiple Variables something like this :-

$bus=Bus::all();
$user=User::all();
$employer=employer::all();

what am doing to return those variables objects to the view is using code like this

return view('create')->with(compact('bus', $bus))->with(compact('user', $user))->with(compact('employer', $employer));

is there a way a method or something to return this objects at once without the need for all of this code some thing like

return view('create')->($user,$bus,$emp);

just example of what i want .

return view('create', compact('bus', 'user', 'employer')); — Andy Holmes

you can create an array like this

$data['bus']=Bus::all();
$data['user']=User::all();
$data['employer']=employer::all();
return view('create',['data'=>$data]);

You have few options here.

First approach is:

Use with() and pass an array explicitly:

return view('create')->with('data', [
    'bus' => $bus, 
    'user' => $user,
    'employer' => $employer
]);

Use with() and list your variables in compact():

return view('create')->with('data', compact('bus','user','employer'));

Your objects would be accessible in the view like an associative array $data with keys 'bus','user' and 'employer'.

Another approach is:

Pass an array as a second argument to view() function:

return view('create', [
    'bus' => $bus, 
    'user' => $user,
    'employer' => $employer
]);

Pass an compact() function (which would create an array like in the previous example behind the scenes) as a second argument to view() function:

return view('create', compact('bus','user','employer'));

If you use it this manner you will get three variables $bus, $user and $employer accessible in your view.

You can do pretty much what you're after with

return view('create', compact('bus', 'user', 'employer'));

or do the $data option above
