Is there a better way to write these routes? It seems I am repeating the same controller in my route files.
Route::post('user', [UserController::class, 'update']);
Route::get('user', [UserController::class, 'index']);
Route::delete('users/{id}',[UserController::class, 'destroy']);
You can use a resource route, where you specify a subset of actions in the controller.
Route::resource('user', UserController::class)->only([
'index', 'update', 'destroy'
]);
You can also use the --model option when generating a controller with the stubbed out CRUD methods.
php artisan make:controller UserController --resource --model=User
Result:
+-----------+-------------+--------------+---------------------------------------------+------------+
| Method | URI | Name | Action | Middleware |
+-----------+-------------+--------------+---------------------------------------------+------------+
| GET|HEAD | user | user.index | App\Http\Controllers\UserController@index | web |
| PUT|PATCH | user/{user} | user.update | App\Http\Controllers\UserController@update | web |
| DELETE | user/{user} | user.destroy | App\Http\Controllers\UserController@destroy | web |
