Redirect to external URL with return in laravel
PhpLaravelLaravel 4Sms GatewayPhp Problem Overview
I am trying to send one time password to a user using SMS INDIA HUB API. For that purpose I need to redirect to a URL format:
If we load this URL, it will return some message. I need to get that message to.
I tried like this
$url = "http://cloud.smsindiahub.in/vendorsms/pushsms.aspx?user=wwww&password=eee&msisdn=9197xxxxx&sid=yyyyy&msg=rrrrr&fl=0&gwid=2";
return Redirect::intended($url);
But it is not directing to that link. It tries to load that URL in localhost.
Or is there any plugin to send sms using SMS INDIA HUB?
Can anyone help??
Php Solutions
Solution 1 - Php
You should be able to redirect to the url like this
return Redirect::to($url);
Solution 2 - Php
For Laravel 5.x and above
return redirect()->away('https://www.google.com');
as stated in the docs:
> Sometimes you may need to redirect to a domain outside of your > application. You may do so by calling the away method, which creates a > RedirectResponse without any additional URL encoding, validation, or > verification:
Solution 3 - Php
Define the url you want to redirect in $url
Then just use
return Redirect::away($url);
If you want to redirect inside your views use
return Redirect::to($url);

Update 1 :
Here is the simple example
return Redirect::to('http://www.google.com');
Update 2 :
As the Questioner wants to return in the same page
$triggersms = file_get_contents('http://www.cloud.smsindiahub.in/vendorsms/pushsms.aspx?user=efg&password=abcd&msisdn=9197xxx2&sid=MYID&msg=Hello');
return $triggersms;
Solution 4 - Php
You can use Redirect::away($url)
Solution 5 - Php
For Laravel 5.x we can redirect with just
return redirect()->to($url);
Solution 6 - Php
Also, adding class
use Illuminate\Http\RedirectResponse;
and after, like this:
public function show($id){
$link = Link::findOrFail($id); // get data from db table Links
return new RedirectResponse($link->url); // and this my external link,
}
or
return new RedirectResponse("http://www.google.com?andParams=yourParams");
For external links have to be used full URL string with 'http' in begin.
Solution 7 - Php
If you're using InertiaJS, the away() approach won't work as seen on the inertiaJS github, they are discussing the best way to create a "external redirect" on inertiaJS, the solution for now is return a 409 status with X-Inertia-Location header informing the url, like this:
return response('', 409)
->header('X-Inertia-Location', $paymentLink);
Where paymentLink is the link you want to send the user to.

Solution 8 - Php
For Laravel 8 you can also use
Route::redirect('/here', '/there');
//or
Route::permanentRedirect('/here', '/there');
This also works with external URLs
Solution 9 - Php
return Redirect::away($url); should work to redirect
Also, return Redirect::to($url); to redirect inside the view.
