Laravel middleware redirection - laravel-5

Question

when i use laravel middleware its routes is not work properly
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Auth;
use App\Article;
use App\Http\Requests;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Http\Requests\ArticleRequest;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Carbon\Carbon;
//use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class ArticlesController extends Controller
{
public function __construct(){
$this->middleware('auth',['only'=>'create']);
}
//
public function index(){
//return \Auth::user();
$articles = Article::latest('published_at')->published()->get();
return view('articles.index',compact('articles'));
}
public function show($id){
$article = Article::findorFail($id);
//dd($article->published_at->addDays(8)->diffForHumans());
return view('articles.show',compact('article'));
}
public function create(){
if(Auth::guest()){
return redirect('articles');
}
return view('articles.create');
}
public function store(ArticleRequest $request){
/*
$input = Request::all();
$input['published_at'] = Carbon::now();
*/
$article = new Article($request->all());
Auth::user()->articles()->save($article);
//Article::create($request->all());
return redirect('articles');
}
public function edit($id){
$article = Article::findorFail($id);
return view('articles.edit', compact('article'));
}
public function update($id, ArticleRequest $request){
$article = Article::findorFail($id);
$article->update($request->all());
return redirect('articles');
}
}
when i go to http://localhost/lernlaravel/public/articles/create it works fine
but when i go to http://localhost/learnlaravel/public/articles it redirect to http://localhost/articles.
index() method is used for listing articles how i can fix it?

Answer 1

The redirect () accepts a URL path so if you want ensure your redirect will work on both testing and production environments, I would pass either action () or route () to all of your applications redirect calls. In your this case I would go with
return redirect(action ('ArticlesController#show', $articles->id));
This way Laravel will automatically generate the proper URL path to the controller you want to handle the request.
If you choose to go with route() you are required to have named the route in your routes file, but I find that with resourceful controllers it's less complicated to go with action.
