Answer 1

Hey,

In order to identify the type of HTTP request we use method() function and then check it by isMethod() function to identify the request.

For example: In controller created in Laravel

class user extend controller

{

    public function index(Request $req)

    {

         echo $req->method();

     } 

}

The above code will display the type of request. Now in order to execute certain condition based on request do follow the sample example

class user extend controller

{

    public function index(Request $req)

    {

         echo $req->method();

         if($req->isMethod('GET'))

             echo "Neeraj";

         else

              echo "edureka";

     } 

}
