Redirect with parameters laravel 5.3 | InvalidArgumentException in Response.php line 462

Question

Hi I'm new to laravel and got stuck. in my app there are three types of users. their login data is kept in a single table(users table generated with auth), with a char to define the user type. What I want to do is when they log in, redirect them to relevant page with their user_id (obtained from the users table) on the url. bottomline is I want to get the url as

localhost:8000/ESProfile/15

where value 15 is the user_id of the table. What I've done so far is below.

In AuthenticatesUsers.php (auto generated from artisan auth)

    protected function authenticated(Request $request, $user)
{
    $userId = $user->id;
    if($user->type === 's') {
        return redirect('ESProfile', $userId);
    }
    else if($user->type === 'p') {
        return redirect('/ePProfile');
    }
    else if($user->type === 'i') {
        return redirect('/ePDashboard');
    }
}

In web.php

Route::get('ESProfile/{id}', function($id){ return view('ESeeker.details')->with('$id'); });

when I try to login, it gives

InvalidArgumentException in UrlGenerator.php line 314: Route [ESProfile] not defined. error.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

After many trials found my answer.

In RegistersUsers.php (auto generated file from php artisan make:auth)

    public function register(Request $request){

    $this->validator($request->all())->validate();

    event(new Registered($user = $this->create($request->all())));

    $this->guard()->login($user);
    $user = $request -> user();
        if(($user->type) == 's'){
            return $this->registered($request, $user)?: redirect()-> intended('/addPreferences/ESId='.$user->id);
        }
        if(($user->type) == 'p'){
            return $this->registered($request, $user)?: redirect()-> intended('/ePProfile/epID='.$user->id);
        }
     }

appending desired path with intended method did the trick. Thanks. (special thanks goes to iCode)
