Passing values in the URL with laravel

Question

Is there a way to turn this url

http://example.com/search?values[]=foo&values[]=bar&more[]=baz&more[]=fab

into something a bit more friendly?

http://example.com/search/values/<mutliple-items>/more/<mutliple-items>

as you wish :) Just specify it in the routes: `Route::get('search/values/{mutliple_items}/more/{mutliple_items2}/', ['uses' => "SearchController@index"]);` — Alex Slipknot, Mar 23 '17 at 11:58
how do you separate the items though without them coming out as a string? Ideally I would want an array like in the first option. — Craig Ward, Mar 23 '17 at 11:59
Not sure if this functionality is available in v5, but in v4 there was `Route::when('search/*' ... ` And then you can parse those values — Alex Slipknot, Mar 23 '17 at 12:09

Try with this:

Route::get('search/values/{mutliple_items1}/more/{mutliple_it‌ems2}', 'SearchController@search');

The answer was provided by @alexslipknot

Route::get('search/values/{slashValues?}/more/{slashMore?}', 'Website\SearchController@searchTest')
    ->where('slashValues', '(.*)')
    ->where('slashMore', '(.*)');

and it works perfectly
