Laravel Global Variable to specific views - laravel-5

Question

I would like assistance with calling a global variable on Laravel app for specific pages or routes.
This is my current code which works on login
App\Providers\AppServiceProvider
public function boot()
{
view()->composer(['auth.login'], function ($view) {
$view->with('settings', AppSetting::where('id',1)->first());
});
}
This is the route for the login page
Route::get('/', function () {
return view('auth.login');
});
[Edit 1]
On the login page , I used this code bellow to get the app version
{{$settings->app_version}}

After digging a little I think a good solution might be caching your AppSetting Model.
Write the given code in App\Providers\RouteServiceProvider
<?php
namespace App\Providers;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Support\Providers\RouteServiceProvider as ServiceProvider;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
class RouteServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
/**
* Define your route model bindings, pattern filters, etc.
*
* #return void
*/
public function boot()
{
parent::boot();
App::before(function($request) {
App::singleton('settings', function(){
return AppSetting::where('id',1)->first();
});
// If you use this line of code then it'll be available in any view
// as $settings but you may also use app('settings') as well
View::share('settings', app('settings'));
});
}
}
App::singleton will call once AppSetting::where('id',1)->first() and after one call your settings will be cached.
And you can use {{$settings->app_version}} in your view.
