如何在用户访问特定页面时更新页面匹配

Question

I am using Laravel 5.2. How can I increment a hits field in articles table when a specific an article is visited by the user?

This is the code I came up with:

Article::where('id', 2)->increment('hits');

Where would be the best place to insert this code to?

Answer 1

Make a middleware and then pass your requests through it. so whenever you request artical route it will be passed from that middleware and in middleware you can write logic for your increments.
