Try this :
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Request;
public function add_question(Request $request)
{
return $request->all();
}
There seems to be a major mistake in almost all the current answers in that they show BOTH GET and POST data. Not ONLY POST data.
The issue with your code as the accepted answer mentioned is that you did not import the facade. This can imported by adding the following at the top:
use Request;
public function add_question(Request $request)
{
return Request::post();
}
You can also use the global request method like so (mentioned by @Canaan Etai), with no import required:
request()->post();
However, a better approach to importing Request
in a controller method is by dependency injection as mentioned in @shuvrow answer:
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
public function add_question(Request $request)
{
return $request->post();
}
More information about DI can be found here:
In either case, you should use:
// Show only POST data
$request->post(); // DI
request()->post(); // global method
Request::post(); // facade
// Show only GET data
$request->query(); // DI
request()->query(); // global method
Request::query(); // facade
// Show all data (i.e. both GET and POST data)
$request->all(); // DI
request()->all(); // global method
Request::all(); // facade
You should use the facade rather than Illuminate\Http\Request
. Import it at the top:
use Request;
And make sure it doesn't conflict with the other class.
Edit: This answer was written a few years ago. I now favour the approach suggested by shuvrow below.
For those who came here looking for "how to get All input of POST" only
class Illuminate\Http\Request
extends from Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request
which has two class variables that store request parameters.
public $query
- for GET parameters
public $request
- for POST parameters
Usage: To get a post data only
$request = Request::instance();
$request->request->get('my_param');
Source here
You can use it
$params = request()->all();
without
import Illuminate\Http\Request
OR
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Request
OR other.
You can get all post data into this function :-
$postData = $request->post();
and if you want specific filed then use it :-
$request->post('current-password');
its better to use the Dependency than to attache it to the class.
public function add_question(Request $request)
{
return Request::all();
}
or if you prefer using input variable use
public function add_question(Request $input)
{
return $input::all();
}
you can now use the global request method provided by laravel
request()
for example to get the first_name of a form input.
request()->first_name
// or
request('first_name')
It should be at least this:
public function login(Request $loginCredentials){
$data = $loginCredentials->all();
return $data['username'];
}
