Views in Laravel - Part - 6

Views (Resouses-> views)
---------------------------------------------

resourses -> view -> welcome.blade.php (default file) is default 'Laravel' home page such as cms.test which means http://localhost/cms/public (laravel 5 welcome page)

The reason why we use these '.blade' because PHP uses a templating engine a features special programming, laravel uses that to do things easier with PHP.

if you want any page, you may create that place.

Let's use sources we gotta here.it's controller post controller to displacement view. (HTTP->Controller->PostsControllers.php)

how to create a route to the PHP file:

1. go to the resources -> view and create a new directory such as pages
2. go to the pages and create the PHP file
3. go to the PostsControllers and create a custom control.

custom control:
public function contact(){
  return view('pages/contact');
}

or

public function contact(){
  return view('pages.contact');
}

4. finally call the controller in route.php

Route::get('/contact',PostsController@contact');

It's time for us to learn how to pass data into view.

1. create a custom method in routes.php

Route::get('post/{id}','PostsController@show_post');

2. Go to the PostsController

public function show_post($id){
        return view('post');
}

3. go to the resources -> view and create a new PHP file that name was 'post.blade.php'
