Laravel optional parameter missing required parameters

Question

Route::get('/products/{page?}', 'ProductController@index')->name('products');
Route::get('/products/{category}/{page?}', 'ProductController@index')->name('products');

I created a two routes.

First one for all products, other for categories.

I got an error:

Missing required parameters for [Route: products] [URI: products/{category}/{page?}].

It is laravel: 5.5

I am calling all products like this:

{{ route('products') }}

You have two routes named products. That's going to cause an issue. Routes should have unique names. — aynber

Change your route name like

Route::get('/products/{page?}', 'ProductController@index')->name('products');
Route::get('/products/{category}/{page?}', 'ProductController@index')->name('product.category');

For Product route:

{{ route('products') }}

For category route:

{{ route('product.category') }}

Your route naming clashes, you will need to give your routes unique names.

Route::get('/products/{page?}', 'ProductController@index')->name('products.page');
Route::get('/products/{category}/{page?}', 'ProductController@index')->name('products.category.page');

Call the route with the new name.

{{ route('products.page') }}

If you want to get the route for for the route with the category parameter.

{{ route('products.category.page', $category) }}

Two routes cannot have same names and you are doing this. Change your routes name to:

Route::get('/products/{page?}', 'ProductController@index')->name('products');
Route::get('/products/{category}/{page?}', 'ProductController@index')->name('category.products');

and then you can call te routes like:

{{ route('products') }}
{{ route('category.products', ['category' => $category->id) }}

Thanks.
