Compatibility Chart

Installation

Step 1: Install package

To get started with Laravel Trailing Slash, use Composer command to add the package to your composer.json project's dependencies:

composer require fsasvari/laravel-trailing-slash

Or add it directly by copying next line into composer.json:

"fsasvari/laravel-trailing-slash": "4.*"

Step 2: Service Provider

After installing the Laravel Trailing Slash library, register the LaravelTrailingSlash\RoutingServiceProvider in your config/app.php configuration file:

'providers' => [
    // Application Service Providers...
    // ...

    // Other Service Providers...
    LaravelTrailingSlash\RoutingServiceProvider::class,
    // ...
],

Step 3: .htaccess

Copy following redirection code from public/.htaccess to your own project:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    # Redirect To Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder Or A File...
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(/$|\.)
    RewriteRule (.*) %{REQUEST_URI}/ [R=301,L]
</IfModule>

Step 4: Routes

In routes/web.php, you must use routes with trailing slashes now:

Route::get('/', function () {
    return view('welcome');
});

Route::get('about/', function () {
    return view('about');
});

Route::get('contact/', function () {
    return view('contact');
});

Usage

Every time you use some Laravel redirect function, trailing slash ("/") will be applied at the end of url.

return redirect('about/');

return back()->withInput();

return redirect()->route('text', ['id' => 1]);

return redirect()->action('IndexController@about');

Change log

Please see CHANGELOG for more information what has changed recently.

Notice

There is a problem with overriding Laravel Paginator and LengthAwarePaginator classes. So, every time you use paginate() method on your models, query builders etc., you must set current path for pagination links. Example:

$texts = Text::where('is_active', 1)->paginate();
$texts->setPath(URL::current());

$texts->links();
