How to Get the Current URL Inside @if Statement (Blade) in Laravel 4?

LaravelLaravel 4Laravel Blade

Laravel Problem Overview


I am using Laravel 4. I would like to access the current URL inside an @if condition in a view using the Laravel's Blade templating engine but I don't know how to do it.

I know that it can be done using something like <?php echo URL::current(); ?> but It's not possible inside an @if blade statement.

Any suggestions?

Laravel Solutions


Solution 1 - Laravel

You can use: Request::url() to obtain the current URL, here is an example:

@if(Request::url() === 'your url here')
    // code
@endif

Laravel offers a method to find out, whether the URL matches a pattern or not

if (Request::is('admin/*'))
{
    // code
}

Check the related documentation to obtain different request information: http://laravel.com/docs/requests#request-information

Solution 2 - Laravel

You can also use Route::current()->getName() to check your route name.

Example: routes.php

Route::get('test', ['as'=>'testing', function() {
    return View::make('test');
}]);

View:

@if(Route::current()->getName() == 'testing')
    Hello This is testing
@endif

Solution 3 - Laravel

Maybe you should try this:

<li class="{{ Request::is('admin/dashboard') ? 'active' : '' }}">Dashboard</li>

Solution 4 - Laravel

To get current url in blade view you can use following,

<a href="{{url()->current()}}">Current Url</a>

So as you can compare using following code,

@if (url()->current() == 'you url')
    //stuff you want to perform
@endif

Solution 5 - Laravel

I'd do it this way:

@if (Request::path() == '/view')
    // code
@endif

where '/view' is view name in routes.php.

Solution 6 - Laravel

This is helped to me for bootstrap active nav class in Laravel 5.2:

<li class="{{ Request::path() == '/' ? 'active' : '' }}"><a href="/">Home</a></li>
<li class="{{ Request::path() == 'about' ? 'active' : '' }}"><a href="/about">About</a></li>

Solution 7 - Laravel

A little old but this works in L5:

<li class="{{ Request::is('mycategory/', '*') ? 'active' : ''}}">

This captures both /mycategory and /mycategory/slug

Solution 8 - Laravel

Laravel 5.4

Global functions

@if (request()->is('/'))
    <p>Is homepage</p>
@endif

Solution 9 - Laravel

I personally wouldn't try grabbing it inside of the view. I'm not amazing at Laravel, but I would imagine you'd need to send your route to a controller, and then within the controller, pass the variable (via an array) into your view, using something like $url = Request::url();.

One way of doing it anyway.

EDIT: Actually look at the method above, probably a better way.

Solution 10 - Laravel

You can use this code to get current URL:

echo url()->current();

echo url()->full();

I get this from Laravel documents.

Solution 11 - Laravel

A simple navbar with bootstrap can be done as:

    <li class="{{ Request::is('user/profile')? 'active': '' }}">
        <a href="{{ url('user/profile') }}">Profile </a>
    </li>

Solution 12 - Laravel

For me this works best:

class="{{url()->current() == route('dashboard') ? 'bg-gray-900 text-white' : 'text-gray-300'}}"

Solution 13 - Laravel

You will get the url by using the below code.

For Example your URL like https//www.example.com/testurl?test

echo url()->current();
Result : https//www.example.com/testurl

echo url()->full();
Result: https//www.example.com/testurl?test

Solution 14 - Laravel

The simplest way is to use: Request::url();

But here is a complex way:

URL::to('/').'/'.Route::getCurrentRoute()->getPath();

Solution 15 - Laravel

There are two ways to do that:

<li{!!(Request::is('your_url')) ? ' class="active"' : '' !!}>

or

<li @if(Request::is('your_url'))class="active"@endif>

Solution 16 - Laravel

You should try this:

<b class="{{ Request::is('admin/login') ? 'active' : '' }}">Login Account Details</b>

Solution 17 - Laravel

The simplest way is

<li class="{{ Request::is('contacts/*') ? 'active' : '' }}">Dashboard</li>

This colud capture the contacts/, contacts/create, contacts/edit...

Solution 18 - Laravel

Set this code to applied automatically for each <li> + you need to using HTMLBuilder library in your Laravel project

<script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function(){
	    $('.list-group a[href="/{{Request::path()}}"]').addClass('active');
    });
</script>

Solution 19 - Laravel

For named routes, I use:

@if(url()->current() == route('routeName')) class="current" @endif

Solution 20 - Laravel

In Blade file

@if (Request::is('companies'))
   Companies name 
@endif

Solution 21 - Laravel

Another way to write if and else in Laravel using path

 <p class="@if(Request::is('path/anotherPath/*')) className @else anotherClassName @endif" >
 </p>

Hope it helps

Solution 22 - Laravel

instead of using the URL::path() to check your current path location, you may want to consider the Route::currentRouteName() so just in case you update your path, you don't need to explore all your pages to update the path name again.

Solution 23 - Laravel

class="nav-link {{ \Route::current()->getName() == 'panel' ? 'active' : ''}}"

Solution 24 - Laravel

@if(request()->path()=='/path/another_path/*')
@endif

Solution 25 - Laravel

Try this:

@if(collect(explode('/',\Illuminate\Http\Request::capture()->url()))->last() === 'yourURL')
    <li class="pull-right"><a class="intermitente"><i class="glyphicon glyphicon-alert"></i></a></li>
@endif

Solution 26 - Laravel

There are many way to achieve, one from them I use always

 Request::url()

Solution 27 - Laravel

Try This:

<li class="{{ Request::is('Dashboard') ? 'active' : '' }}">
    <a href="{{ url('/Dashboard') }}">
	<i class="fa fa-dashboard"></i> <span>Dashboard</span>
    </a>
</li>

Solution 28 - Laravel

For Laravel 5.5 +

<a class="{{ Request::segment(1) == 'activities'  ? 'is-active' : ''}}" href="#">
                              <span class="icon">
                                <i class="fas fa-list-ol"></i>
                              </span>
                            Activities
                        </a>

Solution 29 - Laravel

Try this way :

<a href="{{ URL::to('/registration') }}">registration </a>
