I am using Laravel 4. I would like to access the current URL inside an @if condition in a view using the Laravel\'s Blade templating engine but I don\'t know ho

Answer 1

For named routes, I use:

@if(url()->current() == route('routeName')) class="current" @endif

Laravel 5.4

Global functions

@if (request()->is('/'))
    <p>Is homepage</p>
@endif

Answer 3

There are many way to achieve, one from them I use always

 Request::url()

Answer 4

Another way to write if and else in Laravel using path

 <p class="@if(Request::is('path/anotherPath/*')) className @else anotherClassName @endif" >
 </p>

Hope it helps

Answer 5

instead of using the URL::path() to check your current path location, you may want to consider the Route::currentRouteName() so just in case you update your path, you don't need to explore all your pages to update the path name again.

Answer 6

I personally wouldn't try grabbing it inside of the view. I'm not amazing at Laravel, but I would imagine you'd need to send your route to a controller, and then within the controller, pass the variable (via an array) into your view, using something like $url = Request::url();.

One way of doing it anyway.

EDIT: Actually look at the method above, probably a better way.
