New to Laravel and im following along with a book called "Getting Started with Laravel 4" and i ran into a problem with routing.
My Routing file.
Route::model('cat', 'Cat');
/**
* Route: Directs all index.php requests to cats index page
*
* @Template index.blade.php
*/
Route::get('/', function()
{
return Redirect::to('cats');
});
/**
* Route:
*/
Route::get('cats', function()
{
$cats = Cat::all();
return View::make('cats.index')
->with('cats', $cats);
});
/**
* Route: Show cats by category.
*
* @Template index.php
*/
Route::get('cats/breeds/{name}', function($name)
{
$breed = Breed::whereName($name)->with('cats')->first();
return View::make('cats.index')
->with('breed', $breed)
->with('cats', $breed->cats);
});
/**
* Route: Directs the user to the login page.
*
* @Template login.blade.php
*/
Route::get('login', function()
{
return View::make('login');
});
/**
* Route: Directs users to a single cat object page.
*
* @Template single.blade.php
*/
Route::get('cats/{cat}', function(Cat $cat)
{
return View::make('cats.single')
->with('cat', $cat);
});
Route::group(array('before'=>'auth'), function()
{
/**
* Route: Authenticated route to create a cat in the database.
*
* @Template edit.blade.php.
*/
Route::get('cats/create', function()
{
$cat = new Cat;
return View::make('cats.edit')
->with('cat', $cat)
->with('method', 'post');
});
/**
* Route: Edit cat by specific id.
*
* @Template edit.blade.php
*/
Route::get('cats/{cat}/edit', function(Cat $cat)
{
return View::make('cats.edit')
->with('cat', $cat)
->with("method", 'put');
});
/**
* Route: Delete a cat from the database
*
* @Template edit.blade.php
*/
Route::get('cats/{cat}/delete', function(Cat $cat)
{
return View::make('cats.edit')
->with('cat', $cat)
->with('method', 'delete');
});
/**
* Route: Updates cat object in database then redirects to cat page.
*
* @Template None
*/
Route::put('cats/{cat}', function(Cat $cat)
{
if(Auth::user()->canEdit($cat)) {
$cat->update(Input::all());
return Redirect::to('cats/' . $cat->id)
->with('message', 'Successfully updated page!');
}
else {
return Redirect::to('cats/' . $cat->id)
->with('error', "Unauthorized operation");
}
});
/**
*
*/
Route::post('cats', function()
{
$cat = Cat::create(Input::all());
$cat->user_id = Auth::user()->id;
if($cat->save()){
return Redirect::to('cats/' . $cat->id)
->with('message', 'Successfully created profile!');
}
else{
return Redirect::Back()
->with('message', 'Could not create profile');
}
});
/**
* Route: Deletes cats from database and redirects to cats page
*
* @Template: edit.blade.php.
*/
Route::delete('cats/{cat}', function(Cat $cat){
$cat->delete();
return Redirect::to('cats')
->with('message', 'Successfully deleted page!');
});
});
/**
* Route: Logs user in or redirects back to previous page.
*
* @Template: index.php
*/
Route::post('login', function()
{
if(Auth::attempt(Input::only('username', 'password'))) {
return Redirect::intended('/');
} else {
return Redirect::back()
->withInput()
->with('error', "Invalid credentials");
}
});
/**
* Route that logs the user out and redirects to index.php.
*/
Route::get('logout', function()
{
Auth::logout();
return Redirect::to('/')
->with('message', 'You are now logged out');
});
/**
* Not that sure what this does, Binds cat to a view or something
*/
View::composer('cats.edit', function($view)
{
$breeds = Breed::all();
if(count($breeds) > 0){
$breed_options = array_combine($breeds->lists('id'), $breeds->lists('name'));
}
else {
$breed_options = array(null, 'Unspecified');
}
$view->with('breed_options', $breed_options);
});
I am trying to route to http://localhost/cats/public/index.php/cats/create an d i keep getting the NotFoundHttpException error. I not sure if its because of the order of my routs or what. Please help me.
