Automatically Load/Show Laravel View File

Question

I am thinking of any techniques of autoloading the view files according to url.

For example:

public function addProducts()
{
    return view('admin.addProducts');
}

public function editProducts()
{
    return view('admin.editProducts');
}

public function allProducts()
{
    return view('admin.allProducts');
}

Here, the Controller's method name is identical to view file name. So, I am thinking, if it is possible to load the view files without writing same kind of method again and again.

Enlighten me.

If your route only needs to return a view, you may use the Route::view method.

For example:

Route::view('/welcome', 'welcome');
Route::view('/welcome', 'welcome', ['name' => 'Taylor']);

It's the call PHP magic, man. https://repl.it/@Piterden/PHP-call-magic?language=php

public function __call($method, $parameters)
{
    if (str_contains($method, 'Product')) {
        return view("admin.{$method}");
    }
}

btw, it's not a good practice for controller.
