How can I change the URL in laravel

Question

I have a blog list. When I click on a blog I want to make the URL as the blog name like : www.domain.com/blog/my-blog-name.

In my blog list I have the link as blog/blogid(2/3/4) ex : www.domain.com/blog/1

When someone visit www.domain.com/blog/1 then the URL should be www.domain.com/blog/my-blog-name { the blog name will change as per the blog Id }

I did so many research on this but no luck. It would be great if anyone help me to get out of this.

I am using laravel 5.4. I am new to laravel also.

You need to create a slug field in your database and you will find a post using slug instead of id

Define route:

Route::get('post/{slug}', 'PostsControler@findBySlug');

Example http://example.com/post/my-awesome-blog-post

and in your controller

//PostsController.php

public function findBySlug($slug)
{
    $post = Post::where('slug', $slug)->firstOrFail();

    // return view
}

I suggest you use Eloquent-Sluggable to auto create slug value from your title field

$post = new Post([
    'title' => 'My Awesome Blog Post',
]);
$post->save();
// $post->slug is "my-awesome-blog-post"

You can create a unique slug or name for your blog , but since names can be duplicate and for the user it is difficult to manually create a unique slug, then I would advise you to do so

Route::get('/blog/{id}/{name}',  'BlogController@show');

this it will look nice in url, as here for example in stackoverflow!

You can just override the function getRouteKeyName

public function getRouteKeyName()
{
    return 'slug';
}

Try with following one!

In your routes file:

Route::get('blog/{slug}', 'BlogController@show'); // make sure not conflict with resource routes define

And then your BlogController:

public function show($slug)
{
    $id = explode($slug, '-')[0]; //get id of post

    // your logic
}

Hope this helps you!

Is slug here only id or id with the blog name?

Hiren Gohel Over a year ago

Hi, slug with id with the blog name! For example: www.domain.com/blog/1-my-first-blog

Saroj Over a year ago

Ok, but I don't want to show the id in my URL, I want to show only the Blog name, Is it possible ?

Hiren Gohel Over a year ago

Yes, then you need to remove value before fist - Just try this first, then try to remove id!

Ok. Thank you I will try it

you can simply take your title from database and use it as a slug like below :

$slug = str_replace(' ','-',$yourtitle);

You can use Laravel mutators setSlugAttribute in your model:

public function setSlugAttribute($title){
  $this->attributes['slug'] =  str_replace(' ','-',$title);   
}

and write this sample code in your web.php :

Route::get('/blog/{slug}',  'BlogController@show');

You can use slug in your method.

public function findBySlug($slug){

$post = Post::whereSlug($slug)->firstOrFail();


}
