I am using laravel form collective for automatic form generation in project. I used same form for add and update with route model binding 

{!!  Form::model($operator, ['route' => ['operator.update', $operator->id]])  !!}

and route for this is 

 Route::resource('operator','OperatorController');

This generates automatic routes for method like POST for store and PUT for updates

if I use form collective then by default method is POST for both store and update if I change to PUT then it changed for both

I need automatic method detection like if I am using for store, it should be POST and PUT if it is edit form

can we do this ?

Mainly if you want to detect both of this situation you should use Form::open for create mode and Form::model for update mode (with method PUT) like this:

@if(!empty($operator))
    {!!  Form::model($operator, ['route' => ['operator.update', $operator->id], 'method' => 'PUT'])  !!}
@else
    {!!  Form::open(['route' => ['operator.store', $operator->id]])  !!}
@endif

This above will automaticlly add _method hidden field to your form (with PUT value) on updating. You should also split for to actions (store and update) as it's in Laravel Docs about Resource Controller.
