Managing Compatible Routes in Laravel for Your CMS

Creating a Content Management System (CMS) can pose various routing challenges, especially if you're aiming to allow non-developers to create custom routes via a database. In this guide, we'll discuss how you can manage and check compatible routes in Laravel, particularly when you encounter a scenario where a found route doesn't meet your needs.

The Challenge

Imagine you're building a CMS with Laravel that allows users (like administrators) to create new routes without directly modifying the routes/web.php file. You've successfully set up a pattern route in your RouteServiceProvider, as shown below:

However, the difficulty arises when you need a mechanism to check for other routes in the application if the current one doesn't match any in your database. This would allow the integration of alternative plugins or routes created by developers. So, how do we tackle this?

The Solution

A good night's sleep provided clarity on this issue, revealing a simple yet effective solution. Below are the steps to achieve a seamless route checking mechanism:

Step 1: Adjust the RouteServiceProvider

You need to modify the boot function of the RouteServiceProvider class. Here’s how to handle routing effectively:

Step 2: Organize Your Route Files

To ensure that your routing logic remains tidy and functional:

Create a New Routes File: Create patternedroutes.php in the routes directory.

Relocate Patterned Route: Cut the patterned route from routes/web.php and add it to routes/patternedroutes.php. This ensures that Laravel checks the normal routes first before considering the patterned ones.

Here’s an example of what these files should look like:

routes/web.php:

routes/patternedroutes.php:

Conclusion

By following these steps, you've created a setup where Laravel will first check the standard routes to determine if a match exists before looking for routes defined in the database. This solution not only simplifies route management for non-developers but also accommodates further development by allowing additional controllers to be integrated effortlessly.

With these organized patterns, your CMS can scale as needed while keeping routing issues at bay. This approach leverages the power of Laravel's routing capabilities, ensuring your application remains flexible and user-friendly.

Happy coding!
