Laravel, how to redirect as 301 and 302

I cannot find info for redirecting as 301/302 in the Laravel docs.

In my routes.php file I use:

Route::get('foo', function(){ 
    return Redirect::to('/bar'); 
});

Is this a 301 or 302 by default? Is there a way to set it manually? Any idea why this would be omitted from the docs?

Solution

  • Whenever you are unsure, you can have a look at Laravel's API documentation with the source code. The Redirector class defines a $status = 302 as default value.

    You can define the status code with the to() method:

    Route::get('foo', function(){ 
    return Redirect::to('/bar', 301); 
});
