How to include Laravel Controller file like blade - laravel

Question

First my master.blade file include menu bar using this
Include Blade file menu.blade.php
#include('menu')
But Finally I realize to send some data from db to menubar, then I create controller, Controller name is MenuController, then I create route "admin-menu". Now I want to include that link to my master blade. how to do that thank you,

Answer 1

To pass data to a view from either a route closure or a controller you do one of the following:
$now = \Carbon\Carbon::now();
View::make('my-view', ['name' => 'Alex', 'date' => $now]); // pass data into View:::make()
View::make('my-view')->with(['name' => 'Alex', 'date' => $now]); // pass data into View#with()
View::make('my-view')->withName('Alex')->withDate($now); // use fluent View#with()
So you'd just use them in the View::make() call as you presumably already are:
// in a route closure
Route::get('some-route', function () {
return View::make('menu', ['name' => 'Alex']);
});
// in a controller
public function someRoute()
{
return View::make('menu', ['name' => 'Alex']);
}
Interestingly, in a lot of frameworks/templating systems, if you wanted to include a partial, you'd pass the data you want to be available in that partial in the partial call, but Laravel doesn't quite do this. For example in a made-up system you may have something like this:
// in controller:
$this->render('home', ['name' => 'Alex', 'age' => 30]);
// home.php
<?php echo $name; ?>
<?php echo $this->partial('home-age', ['age' => $age]); ?>
// home-age.php
<?php echo $age; ?>
But in Laravel, all current view variables are automatically included into partials for you. Now I tend to like to specify the variables anyway (Blade does allow you to do this as above), and obviously it can be used to override a view variable:
// route:
return View::make('home', ['name' => 'Alex', 'age' => 30, 'gender' => 'male']);
// home.blade.php
{{ $name }}
#include('home-extra', ['age' => 20])
// home-extra.blade.php
{{ $age }}
{{ $gender }}
The above code would output:
Alex
20
male
So the age is overridden in the #include, but the un-overridden gender is just passed along. Hopefully that makes sense.
