laravel base path

you can find info about paths in documentation:

What you want to use is the path helper.

The URL helper is for generating HTTP URLs.

Try the path('public') function in Laravel 3,

or the public_path() function in Laravel 4.

Edit: Updated with answer for Laravel 4, thanks Erin

Laravel has helpers for paths:

base_path();    // '/var/www/mysite'
app_path();     // '/var/www/mysite/app'
storage_path(); // '/var/www/mysite/storage'
