Redirect with compact value in laravel

Question

Route :

Route::get('merchantTrans/{id}','MerchantController@merchant');

Merchant Controller :

public function merchant($id){
    $merchant = Merchant::whereId($id)->get();
    return redirect('Merchant view')->with(compact('merchant'));
}

View Route :

Route::view('Merchant view','merchant.listview')->name('Merchant view');

I cannot pass merchant compact value to view.

Produce error

Undefined variable: merchant

Any other best way?

If you're trying to redirect to a route, isn't it suppose to be redirect()->route('Merchant route')? — Oluwatobi Samuel Omisakin, Sep 07 '18 at 08:36
Ya i tried, Even compact value cannot be pass @OluwatobiSamuelOmisakin — Samuel Henry, Sep 07 '18 at 08:38
you're passing `merchant` but using `merch`? indeed, that will result to undefined variable error. — Wreigh, Sep 07 '18 at 08:40

Try this

return redirect()->route('Merchant view')->with( ['merchant' => $merchant] );

In blade file :

<?php $merchants = Session::get('merchant'); ?>
@foreach ($merchants as $merchant)
    //your code
@endforeach

Hope it helps you !

it solves the error, if you want to use in blade template use curly brackets like {{ $merchant }} inside for each loop. Thanks, you solved my error. – Mohsin Khan Aug 22 '22 at 07:08

The Route::view is made for the static views with static parameters passed like :

Route::view('Merchant view','merchant.listview', ['param1' => 'value1']);

Since you want to pass dynamic parameters then it will be better to use the regular route passing by the related controller action and retrieving the desired data.

Anyway you could use Redirect::route() like :

return Redirect::route('Merchant view',['merchant' => base64_encode($merchant)]);

And get the passed variable in the blade side as a HTTP parameter using :

{{ base64_decode(Request::get('merchant')) }}

I've tried this locally and work just fine, what the problem ? – Zakaria Acharki Sep 07 '18 at 11:54
{{ Request::get('merchant') }} shows nothing – Samuel Henry Sep 07 '18 at 12:11
Update your question with the current content after your update – Zakaria Acharki Sep 07 '18 at 12:14
But first replace `Merchant::whereId($id)->get();` by `Merchant::find($id);` adn make sure `dd($merchant)` return the right value – Zakaria Acharki Sep 07 '18 at 12:15

You can pass value from controller to view by using compact the Exact syntax should be like this

$user_detail=array('field1'=>1,'field2'=>2);
return view('dashboard',compact('user_detail'));

The variable name(user_detail) should be same as the name in compact. Right syntax for laravel 5.4 and heigher versions.
