The asset() or URL::asset() will point to http://my-url/public/ in default.
Is there any way to change the url of asset() to http://my-url/public/assets/ ?
I have many asset files which I should use in my blade templates and I don't want to write assets any time.
I mean use asset('js/script.js') instead of asset('assets/js/scripts.js') in my blade templates.
I was also in a situation to use the S3 as a file provider. After searching the Laravel document, I found the following solution. You can configure the asset URL host by setting the ASSET_URL variable in your .env file.
Overriding default asset() is a bad idea but you can do it by defining your own helper implementation:
function asset($path, $secure = null) { return app('url')->asset($path.'/asset', $secure); } But it's a better way to define your own helper like customAsset().
according to laravel 8.x documentation you can configure the asset URL host by setting the ASSET_URL variable in your .env file.
in your case in your .env file:
ASSET_URL=/public/assets
if changes do not take place, remember to run php artisan config:clear
By default, there isn't any configuration for that. You can create your custom function like this:
function my_asset($path, $secure = null){ return asset('/assets/' . trim($path, '/'), $secure); }
