Check if request is GET or POST

In my controller/action:

if(!empty($_POST))
{
    if(Auth::attempt(Input::get('data')))
    {
        return Redirect::intended();
    }
    else
    {
        Session::flash('error_message','');
    }
}

Is there a method in Laravel to check if the request is POST or GET?

Solution

  • I've solve my problem like below in laravel version: 7+

    In routes/web.php:

    Route::post('url', YourController@yourMethod);

    In app/Http/Controllers:

    public function yourMethod(Request $request) {
    switch ($request->method()) {
        case 'POST':
            // do anything in 'post request';
            break;

        case 'GET':
            // do anything in 'get request';
            break;

        default:
            // invalid request
            break;
    }
}
