laravel controller redirect code example

Example 1: redirect to route laravel

Route::post('/user/profile', function () {
    // Update the user's profile...

    return redirect('/dashboard')->with('status', 'Profile updated!');
});

Example 2: previous url laravel

1. The cleanest way seems to be using the url() helper:
	{{ url()->previous() }}

2. URL::previous() works for me in my Laravel 5.1 project. Here is Laravel 5.1 
  doc for previous() method, which is accessible through URL Facade.

3. You can still try alternatives, in your views you can do:

	{{ redirect()->getUrlGenerator()->previous() }}
						OR
	{{ redirect()->back()->getTargetUrl() }}

Example 3: Redirect::route('profile') and with() in laravel

// For a route with the following URI: profile/{id}

return redirect()->route('profile', [$user]);

Example 4: Redirect::route('profile') and with() in laravel

// For a route with the following URI: profile/{id}

return redirect()->route('profile', ['id' => 1]);
