How to display general profile information on multiple templates?

Question

Laravel

Hello.
How in laravel 5.2 to implement the output of general information in several templates?
route

Route::get('/profile/{username}', '[email protected]')->name('profile.show');
Route::get('/profile/{username}/edit', '[email protected]')->name('profile.edit');

controller

/**
     * Show User Profile.
     *
     * @param $username
     * @return \Illuminate\Contracts\View\Factory|\Illuminate\View\View
     */
    public function showProfile($username)
    {
        $user = User::where('username', '=', $username)->firstOrFail();

        return view('profile.activity', compact('user'));
    }

    /**
     * Edit user information
     *
     * @param $username
     * @return \Illuminate\Contracts\View\Factory|\Illuminate\View\View
     */
    public function editProfile($username)
    {

        $user = User::where('username', '=', $username)->firstOrFail();

        return view('profile.settings', compact('user'));
    }

As I understand it, you need to create a composerServiceProvider and compose the template, but it does not work because it cannot determine get username?

And another question about the User model. In laravel 5.2 class User extends Authenticatable. I tried to write function getUserName() {return $this->username} and call it from UserController, but nothing happens.

Answer 1

Everything is correct. Use ComposerView . Have you read the documentation? it 's pretty well laid out here.
You attach a handler to a certain view, which will work and slip data there every time this view is used.

Answer 2

And look towards the Route model binding, so that each time you do not copy-paste the same code
