Usage

After the installation, You can change and extend the default SiroDiaz\Redirection\Models\Redirection model class. The image that you want to add some methods or fields. You would need to create a new model class, for example, App\Models\Redirect.

Example

Here is a basic example of how to extend the functionality of the default Redirection model. We want to include support for the Laravel BackPack admin panel would be:

<?php

namespace App\Models;

use SiroDiaz\Redirection\Models\Redirection as RedirectionBaseModel;
use Backpack\CRUD\app\Models\Traits\CrudTrait;

class Redirect extends Redirection
{
    use CrudTrait;
}

Finally, you have to vendor:publish the sirodiaz/laravel-redirection config file to change the model class used now.

If you want to add more status codes for another type of redirect purpose, add them to your config/redirection.php config file. By default, you have the most common redirection codes: 301, 302, and 307. Don’t forget to append the middleware SiroDiaz\Redirection\RedirectRequests to your app/Http/Kernel.php file.

// app/Http/Kernel.php

    protected $middleware = [
        ...
        \SiroDiaz\Redirection\RedirectRequests::class,
    ],
