39,021 Points[Solved] Laravel 5.1 error: Class 'App\Http\Controllers\Input' not found
In this video, Hampton writes the code:
<?php
//...
public function store()
{
return Input::all();
}
In Laravel 5.1, this returns an error of
FatalErrorException in ToDoListController.php line 38:
Class 'App\Http\Controllers\Input' not found

39,021 PointsHey, I figured this out:
Looking at the docs for HTTP Requests in 5.1, it seems you need to change the return line to this:
<?php
//...
public function store(Request $request)
{
return $request->input();
}

22,986 PointsThat's certainly the better way of doing it! I'm surprised the Input facade didn't work for you, perhaps because 'Input' wasn't imported at the top of the class? But yes! Do it they way you're doing it.

39,021 PointsThanks Tom,
I actually just went through this course again, creating a different app, and was able to use the Input facade... I think I may have needed to add
use Inputto the file. I'm still a bit shaky on what Laravel 5.x requires in that regard.I've seen you around the Laravel questions here in the forum, always with good advice - do you work in tech / with Laravel? You certainly seem to know your stuff!
Cheers,
-Greg

22,986 PointsThat sounds about right!
I've done a few projects in Laravel, but I'm a general front end/php developer 9-5. Thanks man :)
