laravel base path

Question

Im using URL::base(); and I get this URL:

http://www.kp.com.mx/sis_colgate/public

but what I need is this complete path:

/home/         


        

Answer 1

you can find info about paths in documentation:

• Laravel 6
• Laravel 5
• Laravel 4

Answer 2

What you want to use is the path helper.

The URL helper is for generating HTTP URLs.

Try the path('public') function in Laravel 3,

or the public_path() function in Laravel 4.

Edit: Updated with answer for Laravel 4, thanks Erin

Answer 3

Laravel has helpers for paths:

base_path();    // '/var/www/mysite'
app_path();     // '/var/www/mysite/app'
storage_path(); // '/var/www/mysite/storage'
