I am studying Laravel right now and I am doing it by creating a simple CRUD (CREATE-READ-UPDATE-DELETE). This is my way of learning new framework. Before I am using CodeIgniter but I found out that Laravel is much better than CodeIgniter and it has a lot of features.
I am following this tutorial
http://www.allshorevirtualstaffing.com/developing-crud-applications-in-laravel-4/
And I am in the displaying of CREATE view. But I can't access the routes of it.
This is my folder structure
wamp
www
mylaravel
app
bootstrap
public
vendor
So far I have these codes:
Controller
<?php
class EmployeesController extends \BaseController {
/**
* Display a listing of the resource.
*
* @return Response
*/
public function index()
{
$employees = Employee::all();
return View::make('index', compact('employees'));
}
/**
* Show the form for creating a new resource.
*
* @return Response
*/
public function create()
{
return View::make('create');
}
/**
* Store a newly created resource in storage.
*
* @return Response
*/
public function store()
{
//
}
/**
* Display the specified resource.
*
* @param int $id
* @return Response
*/
public function show($id)
{
//
}
/**
* Show the form for editing the specified resource.
*
* @param int $id
* @return Response
*/
public function edit($id)
{
//
}
/**
* Update the specified resource in storage.
*
* @param int $id
* @return Response
*/
public function update($id)
{
//
}
/**
* Remove the specified resource from storage.
*
* @param int $id
* @return Response
*/
public function destroy($id)
{
//
}
public function handleCreate() {
$employee = new Employee;
$employee->first_name = Input::get('first_name');
$employee->last_name = Input::get('last_name');
$employee->email = Input::get('email');
$employee->save();
return Redirect::action('EmployeesController@index');
}
}
Model
<?php
class Employee extends Eloquent
{
}
?>

ROUTES (routes.php)
<?php

| It's a breeze. Simply tell Laravel the URIs it should respond to
| and give it the Closure to execute when that URI is requested.

*/
/*
Route::get('/', function()
{
return View::make('hello');
});
*/
Route::model('employee', 'Employee');
Route::get('/', 'EmployeesController@index');
Route::get('/create', 'EmployeesController@create');
Route::get('/edit/{$employee}', 'EmployeesController@edit');
Route::get('/delete/{$employee}', 'EmployeesController@delete');
Route::post('/create', 'EmployeesController@handleCreate');
Route::post('/edit', 'EmployeesController@handleEdit');
Route::post('/delete', 'EmployeesController@handleDelete');
When I am accessing this URL:
http://localhost/mylaravel/public/
It display the index page with employee table
But when I click the ADD NEW EMPLOYEE
It goes to this page
http://localhost/mylaravel/public/create
And I have this error:
Not Found
The requested URL /mylaravel/public/create was not found on this server.
Apache/2.4.9 (Win64) OpenSSL/1.0.1g PHP/5.5.12 Server at localhost Port 80
I don't know where did I go wrong. Can you help me with this?
