Package to add priority to Laravel 5 routes

Installation

"langaner/route-priority": "dev-master"

2)Run composer update to pull down the latest version of the package.

3)Now open up app/config/app.php and add the service provider to your providers array.

Langaner\RoutePriority\RoutePriorityServiceProvider::class,

4)Add the trait to App\Http\Kernel

use \Langaner\RoutePriority\RouterTrait;

Usage

Change routes priority:

Route::get('test', ['uses' => 'Controller@showAction'])->setPriority(100);

Default Priority

Default priority is 50. Higher priority - values from 50 and above, lower priority - 49 and below.

Usage example

Route::get('/test/{slug}', …);
Route::get('/test/hello', …);

In this example second route will not work. Add priority 0 to the first route will fix the error:

Route::get('/test/{slug}', …)->setPriority(0);
Route::get('/test/hello', …);

Second route now has higher priority.

Group priority

You can put priority to groups:

Route::group(['prefix' => 'test-group', 'priority' => 10], function () {
    Route::get('/test/hello', function () {
        return 'First group';
    });
});

Route::group(['prefix' => 'test-group', 'priority' => 20], function () {
    Route::get('/test/hello', function () {
        return 'Second group';
    });
});

Second group has higher priority then First group. All routes in the group will has the same priority as the group.
