README

This composer package is a simple UI for saving page redirects to your database.

Installation

Begin by pulling in the package through Composer.

composer require malcolmknott/redirector

If using Laravel 5, include the service provider within your config/app.php file.

'providers' => [
    Malcolmknott\Redirector\RedirectorServiceProvider::class,
];

If you have a new project, scaffold the basic login and registration views to pull in Boostrap. Or publish the view files to use your own layout.

php artisan make:auth

Run the migration for the redirects table.

php artisan migrate

Laravel Missing Page Redirector

Pull in the Spatie Laravel Missing Page Redirector package, follow the install and setup instructions.

Update the "laravel-missing-page-redirector.php" config file with the database redirector class.

'redirector' => \Malcolmknott\Redirector\DatabaseRedirector::class,

Usage

Add a route that points to the Redirector Controller, you'll probably want to add some middleware to restrict who can edit your redirects.

Route::resource('redirects', '\Malcolmknott\Redirector\RedirectController');

Views

Publish the view files to change the format and add your own style.

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Malcolmknott\Redirector\RedirectorServiceProvider" --tag="views"
