Using laravel route in javascript

posted 9 years ago

Hi all! I wanna know is there any way to access to laravel route in javascript. For example I have this button:

<a onclick="deletePost({!! $post->id !!});" class="btn btn-default">Delete</a>

and JS:

function deletePost(post_id) {
  bootbox.confirm("Are you sure?", function(result) {
  if (result) {
    document.location.href="{!! route('delete_post', post_id); !!}";
  }
}

All principle is that then I press on a button it calls for deletePost method in javascript with post id, javascript using bootbox shows dialog box to confirm if you really wanna delete it. If you confirmed it should redirect you to route where controller deleting post. So how I can do that if it is possible. Currently this redirects me to:

.../{!! route('delete_post', post_id); !!}

Solution

Hi Destructor,

As long as this javascript is within blade it should work just fine, meaning, your code must be inline script.

Another way to go about is, define that url you want to use in your blade view and call it in external javascript. e.g.

At the head of my blade view i would have this:

  <script type="text/javascript">
	 	var deletePostUri = "{{ route('delete_post',$post_id)}}";
	</script>

Now deletePostUri is globally defined within that page, any javascript inline or external that is loaded after will have access to it.

I hope that helps.

Thanks

Isn't it vulnerable to CSRF?
