Best Practices for Custom Helpers in Laravel 5

Question

I would like to create helper functions to avoid repeating code between views in Laravel 5:

view.blade.php

Foo Formated text: {{ fo         


        

Answer 1

First create helpers.php inside App\Http directory. Then add the following code inside the composer.json

"autoload": {
        "classmap": [
            "database"
        ],
        "files": [
            "app/Http/helpers.php"
        ],
        "psr-4": {
            "App\\": "app/"
        }
    },

Next run the following command

composer dump-autoload

Now you can define your custom function inside the helpers.php file.
