I was hoping to find a way to create an array with the registered routes paths within Laravel 4.
Essentially, I am looking to get a list something like this returned:
/ /login /join /password I did come across a method Route::getRoutes() which returns an object with the routes information as well as the resources but the path information is protected and I don't have direct access to the information.
Is there any other way to achieve this? Perhaps a different method?
Route::getRoutes() returns a RouteCollection. On each element, you can do a simple $route->getPath() to get path of the current route.
Each protected parameter can be get with a standard getter.
Looping works like this:
$routeCollection = Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route::getRoutes(); foreach ($routeCollection as $value) { echo $value->getPath(); } 
Illuminate\Routing\Router.
$routes = array_map(function (\Illuminate\Routing\Route $route) { return $route->uri; }, (array) Route::getRoutes()->getIterator());
You can use console command:
Laravel 4 as asked in question
php artisan routes Laravel 5 more actual
php artisan route:list
Helpers (Laravel 4) :
Usage: routes [--name[="..."]] [--path[="..."]] Options: --name Filter the routes by name. --path Filter the routes by path. --help (-h) Display this help message. --quiet (-q) Do not output any message. --verbose (-v|vv|vvv) Increase the verbosity of messages: 1 for normal output, 2 for more verbose output and 3 for debug --version (-V) Display this application version. --ansi Force ANSI output. --no-ansi Disable ANSI output. --no-interaction (-n) Do not ask any interactive question. --env The environment the command should run under. 
php artisan route:list now
php artisan route:list returns “There are no commands defined in the "route" namespace.” in Laravel 8. Any suggestions?Improving @jeanfrg's answer
It has a few deprecated functions. It shows error while editing an answer, hence posting it here.
Laravel 6, 7 & 8
Put it inside routes/web.php
Route::get('routes', function () { $routeCollection = Route::getRoutes(); echo "<table style='width:100%'>"; echo "<tr>"; echo "<td width='10%'><h4>HTTP Method</h4></td>"; echo "<td width='10%'><h4>Route</h4></td>"; echo "<td width='10%'><h4>Name</h4></td>"; echo "<td width='70%'><h4>Corresponding Action</h4></td>"; echo "</tr>"; foreach ($routeCollection as $value) { echo "<tr>"; echo "<td>" . $value->methods()[0] . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $value->uri() . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $value->getName() . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $value->getActionName() . "</td>"; echo "</tr>"; } echo "</table>"; }); Demo: Access it via <url>/routes
For Laravel 5, you can use artisan command
php artisan route:list instead of php artisan routes.
I created a route that will list each route and its respective details in an html table.
Route::get('routes', function() { $routeCollection = Route::getRoutes(); echo "<table style='width:100%'>"; echo "<tr>"; echo "<td width='10%'><h4>HTTP Method</h4></td>"; echo "<td width='10%'><h4>Route</h4></td>"; echo "<td width='10%'><h4>Name</h4></td>"; echo "<td width='70%'><h4>Corresponding Action</h4></td>"; echo "</tr>"; foreach ($routeCollection as $value) { echo "<tr>"; echo "<td>" . $value->getMethods()[0] . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $value->getPath() . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $value->getName() . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $value->getActionName() . "</td>"; echo "</tr>"; } echo "</table>"; }); 
//Laravel >= 5.4 //Controller index() $app = app(); $routes = $app->routes->getRoutes(); return view ('Admin::routes.index',compact('routes')); //view <table id="routes-table" class="table table-bordered table-responsive"> <thead> <tr> <th>uri</th> <th>Name</th> <th>Type</th> <th>Method</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> @foreach ($routes as $route ) <tr> <td>{{$route->uri}}</td> <td>{{$route->getName()}}</td> <td>{{$route->getPrefix()}}</td> <td>{{$route->getActionMethod()}}</td> </tr> @endforeach </tbody> </table> 
getRoutes() method, then sending them to the template, then finally create a normal html table with the data while looping through all of them. For instance we are displaying the uri e.g /home, name e.g home_route you assigned and the others.A better way to get it readable is to register a route and print it in web browser with the artisan output directly
Route::get('routes', function() { \Artisan::call('route:list'); return \Artisan::output(); }); 
return '<pre>' . \Artisan::output() . '</pre>'; for better formatting.
api/
\Artisan::call('route:list', ['--path' => 'api']);if you have compiled routes like /login/{id} and you want prefix only:
foreach (Route::getRoutes() as $route) { $compiled = $route->getCompiled(); if(!is_null($compiled)) { var_dump($compiled->getStaticPrefix()); } } 
/** @var \Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route $routes */ $routes = Route::getRoutes(); foreach ($routes as $route) { /** @var \Illuminate\Routing\Route $route */ echo $route->getPath() . PHP_EOL; } /** @var \Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route $routes */ $routes = Route::getRoutes(); foreach ($routes as $route) { /** @var \Illuminate\Routing\Route $route */ echo $route->uri. PHP_EOL; } php artisan routes php artisan route:list 
$routeList = Route::getRoutes(); foreach ($routeList as $value) { echo $value->uri().'<br>'; } use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route; On Laravel 5.4, it works, 100 %
Not all the routes are available all the time.
For example if you want to get the routes from the RouteServiceProvider then you might need to use the booted callback:
$this->booted(function () { dump(Route::getRoutes()); } 
php artisan route:list --except-vendor For only your routes
For Laravel 5.4.* This code works fine.
Route::get('routes', function() { $routeCollection = Route::getRoutes(); echo "<table style='width:100%'>"; echo "<tr>"; echo "<td width='10%'><h4>HTTP Method</h4></td>"; echo "<td width='10%'><h4>Route</h4></td>"; echo "<td width='10%'><h4>Name</h4></td>"; echo "<td width='70%'><h4>Corresponding Action</h4></td>"; echo "</tr>"; foreach ($routeCollection as $value) { echo "<tr>"; echo "<td>" . $value->methods()[0] . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $value->uri() . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $value->getName() . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $value->getActionName() . "</td>"; echo "</tr>"; } echo "</table>"; });
