Explore Request

The request object uses dependency injection instead of Facades.

• Accessing the Request object

public function store(\Illuminate\Http\Request $request)

• Accessing the Request object, with a route placeholder

// routes.php
$app->put('/{resource:\d+}', ['as' => 'resources.replace', 'uses' => 'ResourceController@replace']);

// controller.php
public function replace(\Illuminate\Http\Request $request, $resource)

• Access Request parameters

$data = $request->input()

Explore Response

The Response object has a helper response() which uses the response Factory.

return response($content)

Explore Name Routes

• Create a reference to a named route

// routes.php
$app->get('/{resource:\d+}', ['as' => 'resources.show', 'uses' => 'ResourceController@show']);

// controller.php
$showUrl = route('resource.show', ['resource'=>1])
