Lumen: get URL parameter in a Blade view

Question

I'm trying to get a url parameter from a view file.

I have this url:

http://locahost:8000/example?a=10

and a view file named example.blade.php.

From the controller I can get the parameter a with $request->input('a').

Is there a way to get such parameter from the view (without having to pass it from the controller to the view)?

You could access the $_GET[] array, but I wouldn't recommend doing that. You should pass it from the controller to the view, not sure why you woulnd't want to. – Anywhere

@TimLewis I would avoid to pass it from the controller because if I have a lot of parameters it could be annoying, and it should be more quick having a way to get it directly from the view. – Escobar

I guess it can be tedious to define and pass a lot of variables from the controller to the view, but I would take tediousness over bad practices any day... – Anywhere

Think about the reason why you can't access $request directly in view, also why accessing $_GET,$_POST,$_REQUEST directly is bad practice – Killifish

@Killifish true, actually. Frameworks remove potentially bad data from these variables. – Jabin

Answer 1

This works well:

{{ app('request')->input('a') }}

Where a is the url parameter.

this will return all params app('request')->request->all() – Hollis

what would be the way if my URL is like locahost:8000/example/10 and I wanna get the value 10. @Escobar – Wershba

Answer 2

The shortest way i have used

{{ Request::get('a') }}

Where is this documented? – Uncounted

Answer 3

Given your URL:

http://locahost:8000/example?a=10

The best way that I have found to get the value for 'a' and display it on the page is to use the following:

{{ request()->get('a') }}

However, if you want to use it within an if statement, you could use:

@if( request()->get('a') )
    <script>console.log('hello')</script>
@endif

Answer 6

This works fine for me:

{{ app('request')->input('a') }}

Ex: to get pagination param on blade view:

{{ app('request')->input('page') }}

Answer 7

As per official 5.8 docs:

The request() function returns the current request instance or obtains an input item:

$request = request();

$value = request('key', $default);

Answer 8

You can publicly expose Input facade via an alias in config/app.php:

'aliases' => [
    ...

    'Input' => Illuminate\Support\Facades\Input::class,
]

And access url $_GET parameter values using the facade directly inside Blade view/template:

{{ Input::get('a') }}

Lumen has /config folder? – Sanderlin

Answer 9

All the answers above are correct, but there's a quickier way to do this.

{{request("a")}}

Answer 10

As per official documentation 8.x

We use the helper request

The request function returns the current request instance or obtains an input field's value from the current request:

$request = request();

$value = request('key', $default);

the value of request is an array you can simply retrieve your input using the input key as follow

$id = request()->id; //for http://locahost:8000/example?id=10
