Laravel 5 how to get route action name?

<?php namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Routing\Route;

class HomeController extends Controller
{
    public function getIndex(Route $route)
    {
        echo 'getIndex';
        echo $route->getActionName();
    }
}

Laravel: How to Get Current Route Name? (v5 ... v7)

from v5.1

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
$currentPath= Route::getFacadeRoot()->current()->uri();

Retrieving The Request URI

The path method returns the request's URI. So, if the incoming request is targeted at http://example.com/foo/bar, the path method will return foo/bar:

$uri = $request->path();

The is method allows you to verify that the incoming request URI matches a given pattern. You may use the * character as a wildcard when utilizing this method:

if ($request->is('admin/*')) {
    //
}

To get the full URL, not just the path info, you may use the url method on the request instance:

$url = $request->url();

Laravel v5.3 ... v5.8

$route = Route::current();

$name = Route::currentRouteName();

$action = Route::currentRouteAction();

Laravel 5.3 route documentation

Laravel v6.x...7.x

How to get the action from a given laravel route name?

You could use the Route Facade.

\Route::getRoutes()->getByName('test')->getActionName() 
// "App\Http\Controllers\TestController@index"

or the array with the whole action data:

\Route::getRoutes()->getByName('test')->getAction()

/*
[
 "middleware" => "web",
 "as" => "test",
 "uses" => "App\Http\Controllers\TestController@index",
 "controller" => "App\Http\Controllers\TestController@index",
 "namespace" => "App\Http\Controllers",
 "prefix" => null,
 "where" => [],
]
*/

Get current route action name from middleware in laravel 5

You cannot get the route action name if the router has not yet been dispatched. The router class has not yet done its stuff - so you cannot do $router->request() - it will just be null.

If it runs as routeMiddleware as $routeMiddleware - then you can just do $router->request()

You can get the URI string in the middleware before the router has run - and do some logic there if you like: $request->segments(). i.e. that way you can see if the URI segment matches a specific route and run some code.

Edit:

One way I can quickly think of is just wrap all your routes in a group like this:

$router->group(['middleware' => 'permissionsHandler'], function() use ($router) {
            // Have every single route here
});

How to get name of requested controller and action in middleware Laravel

Laravel 5.6:

class_basename(Route::current()->controller);

Laravel 5.5 and lower:

You can retrieve the current action name with Route::currentRouteAction(). Unfortunately, this method will return a fully namespaced class name. So you will get something like:

App\Http\Controllers\FooBarController@method

Then just separate method name and controller name:

$currentAction = \Route::currentRouteAction();
list($controller, $method) = explode('@', $currentAction);
// $controller now is "App\Http\Controllers\FooBarController"

$controller = preg_replace('/.*\\\/', '', $controller);
// $controller now is "FooBarController"

Laravel 5.x How to obtain the controller name using a route name?

As an example, this will give you information for the register route:

Route::getRoutes()->getByName('register')->action;

This will give you an array of all the information you should need:

[
     "middleware" => [
       "web",
     ],
     "uses" => "App\Http\Controllers\Auth\RegisterController@showRegistrationForm",
     "controller" => "App\Http\Controllers\Auth\RegisterController@showRegistrationForm",
     "namespace" => "App\Http\Controllers",
     "prefix" => null,
     "where" => [],
     "as" => "register",
   ]

If you're doing this alot, you can add a macro in your RouteServiceProvider:

public function register()
{
    Route::macro('getByName', function($name) {
        return $this->getRoutes()->getByName($name);
    });
}

and now you can simply do
Route::getByName('register') to get all the route information.

Laravel 5 - how to get action names (for getting urls in templates with route() function) from routes defined using Route::controllers()?

You can set the names for different controller actions when using Route::controller:

Route::controller('auth', 'Auth\AuthController', [
    'getLogin' => 'auth.login',
    'getLogout' => 'auth.logout',
    // and so on
]);

However you may also use the action() helper instead of route() or url(). It let's you specify the controller and method you want to generate an URL for:

action('Auth\AuthController@getLogin')
