Imagine I have this route
Route::get('/services/{service}', 'ServiceController@show');
when I do
public function show($s)
{
$service = Services::findOrFail($s)
}
where $s is a string that might be something like "clean" that has the id 1 for example.
It's better to make the route I have or find it for the ID like
Route::get('/services/{id}', 'ServiceController@show');
public function show($id)
{
$service = Services::findOrFail($id)
}
It doesn't matter the function I use, the important thing here if it is valid to search by name rather than id
when $s is sting you must be make sure for your databse table correspond column is unique. For avoid that you can make your route
Route::get('/services/{id}/{service}', 'ServiceController@show');
public function show($id, $service)
{
$service = Services::where(['id' => $id, 'service' => $service])->first()
}
