How to define a Laravel route with a parameter that contains a slash character

by

Add the below catch-all route to the bottom of your routes.php and remember to run composer dump-autoload afterwards. Notice the use of “->where” that specifies the possible content of params, enabling you to use a param containing a slash. 

//routes.php
Route::get('view/{slashData?}', 'ExampleController@getData')
    ->where('slashData', '(.*)');

And than in your controller you just handle the data as you’d normally do (like it didnt contain the slash). 

//controller 
class ExampleController extends BaseController {

    public function getData($slashData = null)
    {
        if($slashData) 
        {
            //do stuff 
        }
    }

}

This should work for you.
