having issue while trying to use model route binding with laravel

Question

By using this code I'm trying to return the post from posts table which has the same id by {post}.

Route::model('posts', 'Posts'); Route::get('post/{post}', function(Posts $post){ return $post; });

But It returns:

Argument 1 passed to {closure}() must be an instance of Posts, string given

What's the problem? (I'm a beginner)

The name in Route::model needs to match the parameter in your route:

Route::model('post', 'Posts'); Route::get('post/{post}', function(Posts $post){ return $post; });
