Your Answers

Question 1/15

😊 Your answer was correct 🙁 Your answer was incorrect

What is a Closure in the context of Laravel routing?

Available answers

An anonymous function used for inline route callbacks.

A named function used to map HTTP verbs to routes.

A constructor method for initializing route parameters.

A helper function that closes database connections.

In the context of Laravel routing, a Closure is an anonymous function defined directly within a route definition. For example:

Route::get('/example', function () { return 'Hello World'; });

This closure returns a response directly without a controller.

Question 2/15

😊 Your answer was correct 🙁 Your answer was incorrect

What is the function of the route 'as' parameter within a group of routes in Laravel?

Available answers

To define a unique name for each route in the group.

To attach a middleware to each route in the group.

To prefix the URI of each route in the group.

To assign a common prefix to each route's name within the group.

The 'as' parameter in a route group sets a common prefix to each route's name within that group. For example:

Route::name('admin.')->group(function () { Route::get('/dashboard')->name('dashboard'); });

The route name would be 'admin.dashboard'.

Question 3/15

😊 Your answer was correct 🙁 Your answer was incorrect

What is the command to create a RESTful controller in Laravel version 8?

Available answers

php artisan make:controller PostController --rest

php artisan make:controller PostController

php artisan make:restful PostController

php artisan make:controller PostController --resource

To create a RESTful controller in Laravel 8, you need to use the --resource flag with the make:controller command:

php artisan make:controller PostController --resource

This automatically generates methods for handling resourceful routes.

Question 4/15

😊 Your answer was correct 🙁 Your answer was incorrect

How can you create a route in Laravel that triggers a method in a controller but excludes a specific HTTP verb?

Available answers

Route::only('post', 'put', 'delete', '/example', 'ExampleController@show');

Route::exceptVerb('get', '/example', 'ExampleController@show');

Route::match(['post', 'put', 'delete'], '/example', 'ExampleController@show');

Route::except('get', '/example', 'ExampleController@show');

To create a route in Laravel that excludes a specific HTTP verb, use the Route::match() method listing all verbs except the one to exclude. For example:

Route::match(['post', 'put', 'delete'], '/example', 'ExampleController@show');

This excludes GET requests.

Question 5/15

😊 Your answer was correct 🙁 Your answer was incorrect

Which code snippet correctly groups routes inside middleware with the name 'auth'?

Available answers

Route::middleware('auth')->group(function () { ... });

Route::authGroup('auth', function () { ... });

Route::group(['auth'], function () { ... });

Route::auth('auth')->group(function () { ... });

In Laravel, to apply middleware to a group of routes, use:

Route::middleware('auth')->group(function () { ... });

This will ensure that the 'auth' middleware is applied to all routes within the group.

Question 6/15

😊 Your answer was correct 🙁 Your answer was incorrect

In which file would you typically protect routes by implementing policies in Laravel?

Available answers

In routes/web.php

In routes/api.php

In PoliciesServiceProvider.php

In AuthServiceProvider.php

In Laravel, policies are registered in the App\Providers\AuthServiceProvider.php file. This is where you map your policies to the corresponding models, allowing you to protect routes using defined policies.

Question 7/15

😊 Your answer was correct 🙁 Your answer was incorrect

What is the syntax to pass a parameter dynamically from a route to a controller in Laravel?

Available answers

Route::route('/posts/{post}', 'PostController@show');

Route::get('/posts/{id}', 'PostController->show');

Route::get('/posts/{post}', 'PostController@show');

Route::load('/posts/$post', 'PostController::show');

To dynamically pass a parameter from a route to a controller, define it in the URL pattern:

Route::get('/posts/{post}', 'PostController@show');

This route structure allows the function in PostController to automatically receive the '{post}' parameter.

Question 8/15

😊 Your answer was correct 🙁 Your answer was incorrect

Which helper function can be used to generate URLs for named routes in Laravel?

Available answers

url()

route()

link()

path()

The route() helper function in Laravel is used to generate URLs for named routes:

return route('profile');

This is convenient for generating URLs for endpoints with dynamic checks.

Question 9/15

😊 Your answer was correct 🙁 Your answer was incorrect

How can you pass multiple middleware to a single route in Laravel?

Available answers

Route::get('/dashboard', 'DashboardController@index')->middleware(['auth','verified']);

Route::get('/dashboard', 'DashboardController@index')->middleware('auth','verified');

Route::middleware('auth', 'verified')->get('/dashboard', 'DashboardController@index');

Route::get('/dashboard', 'DashboardController@index')->with(['auth','verified']);

In Laravel, you can pass multiple middleware to a route by enclosing them in an array:

Route::get('/dashboard', 'DashboardController@index')->middleware(['auth', 'verified']);

This way, both 'auth' and 'verified' middleware will be applied to the route.

Question 10/15

😊 Your answer was correct 🙁 Your answer was incorrect

How can you apply a middleware to a single route in Laravel?

Available answers

Route::middleware('auth')->get('/dashboard', 'DashboardController@index');

Route::get('/dashboard', 'DashboardController@index')->apply('auth');

Route::route('/dashboard', 'DashboardController@index', ['middleware' => 'auth']);

Route::get('/dashboard', 'DashboardController@index')->middleware('auth');

In Laravel, you can apply a middleware to a single route using the middleware method:

Route::get('/dashboard', 'DashboardController@index')->middleware('auth');

Alternatively, you can also place the middleware method before defining the route:

Route::middleware('auth')->get('/dashboard', 'DashboardController@index');

Both are correct ways to apply middleware.

Question 11/15

😊 Your answer was correct 🙁 Your answer was incorrect

How can you restrict a route to only accept POST requests?

Available answers

Route::limit('POST')->path('/submit', 'SubmitController@store');

Route::only('POST', '/submit', 'SubmitController@store');

Route::post('/submit', 'SubmitController@store');

Route::post()->path('/submit', 'SubmitController@store');

To restrict a route to only accept POST requests, use the Route::post method:

Route::post('/submit', 'SubmitController@store');

This ensures that the route will only respond to HTTP POST requests.

Question 12/15

😊 Your answer was correct 🙁 Your answer was incorrect

Which routing method would be suitable for an API that handles both GET and POST requests at the same endpoint in Laravel?

Available answers

Route::getpost('/api/data', 'ApiController@data');

Route::multi(['get', 'post'], '/api/data', 'ApiController@handleData');

Route::match(['get', 'post'], '/api/data', 'ApiController@handleData');

Route::handle(['get', 'post'], '/api/data', 'ApiController@handleData');

The Route::match(['get', 'post'], '/api/data', 'ApiController@handleData'); method allows handling of both GET and POST requests at the same endpoint in Laravel. This ensures that the route will respond to either HTTP verb.

Question 13/15

😊 Your answer was correct 🙁 Your answer was incorrect

In Laravel, how do you register resourceful routes to a 'PostController'?

Available answers

Route::resources('posts', 'PostController');

Route::resourceGroup('PostController', 'posts');

Route::controller('PostController')->resource('posts');

Route::resource('posts', 'PostController');

To register resourceful routes in Laravel, use the Route::resource method:

Route::resource('posts', 'PostController');

This automatically handles RESTful actions for the controller like index, create, store, show, etc.

Question 14/15

😊 Your answer was correct 🙁 Your answer was incorrect

In Laravel, how can you handle multiple HTTP verbs for the same route URI in a controller?

Available answers

Route::match(['get', 'post'], '/submit', 'SubmitController@handle');

Route::any('/submit', 'SubmitController@handle');

Route::method(['get', 'post'], '/submit', 'SubmitController@handle');

Route::verbs(['get', 'post'], '/submit', 'SubmitController@handle');

In Laravel, you can handle multiple HTTP verbs for the same route URI by using Route::match() or Route::any(). For example:

Route::match(['get', 'post'], '/submit', 'SubmitController@handle');

Route::any('/submit', 'SubmitController@handle');

The difference is that Route::any() will match all verbs.

Question 15/15

😊 Your answer was correct 🙁 Your answer was incorrect

In a Laravel application, what is the correct syntax to use the 'where' method to constrain a route parameter?

Available answers

Route::get('/user/{name}', 'UserController@show')->whereParam('name', '\w+');

Route::get('/user/{name}', 'UserController@show')->where('name', '[A-Za-z]+');

Route::put('/user/{name}', 'UserController@update')->restrict('name', '[A-Za-z]+');

Route::get('/user/{name}')->limitParam('name', '^\d{3}$');

To constrain a route parameter in Laravel using a regular expression, the where method is used as follows:

Route::get('/user/{name}', 'UserController@show')->where('name', '[A-Za-z]+');

This ensures that the parameter matches alphabetic characters only.
