laravel 5在每个控制器上加载模型

Question

I am learning laravel coming from a codeigniter background. I have an object I need to get from a model to be used in the navigation bar. The call I'm making is this.

$users = \App\Models\User::all();

I know I can do this on every controller

public function index()
{       
    $users = \App\Models\User::all();

    return View::make('users')->with('users', $users);
}

But I'm trying to get in good habits. What is the best practice for retrieving this data on every page in laravel 5?

Answer 1

Use the view helper function to share data with every view: view()->share('data', [1, 2, 3]);

You can do that in the boot method of the AppServiceProvider. For more information look here.
