Laravel Redirect Cheat Sheet

Redirect is Laravel's URL redirection helper that also stores session data, offering a convenient encapsulated way to perform various types of redirects.

Common usage examples include simple redirects, redirects with flash data, redirects preserving input, error redirects, back navigation, named route redirects, controller action redirects, and intended redirects.

return Redirect::to('foo/bar');
return Redirect::to('foo/bar')->with('key', 'value');
return Redirect::to('foo/bar')->withInput(Input::get());
return Redirect::to('foo/bar')->withInput(Input::except('password'));
return Redirect::to('foo/bar')->withErrors($validator);
// Redirect to the previous request
return Redirect::back();
// Redirect to a named route
return Redirect::route('foobar');
return Redirect::route('foobar', array('value'));
return Redirect::route('foobar', array('key' => 'value'));
// Redirect to a controller action
return Redirect::action('FooController@index');
return Redirect::action('FooController@baz', array('value'));
return Redirect::action('FooController@baz', array('key' => 'value'));
// Redirect to intended URL, defaulting to foo/bar if none set
return Redirect::intended('foo/bar');
