Add name to laravel route

Question

I've got a route defined as:

Route::get('/novanoticia', 'HomeController@getNovaNoticia');

When I run php artisan route:list it shows nothing on the name column. How to add a name to the route in such a way that I can later call it just by its name like: href="{{ route('route_name', $routeparam) }}?

Or will I have to redefine the route? Thanks in advance

Answer 2

You can use the following step to name a route:

Route::get('/novanoticia', 'HomeController@getNovaNoticia')->name('route_name');

Also, you can use route naming conventions to name your routes so that you can recall them easily as below:

Route::get('/novanoticia', 'HomeController@getNovaNoticia')->name('controller_name.route_name');
