Step-by-Step Guide : How to Create Custom Route File in Laravel 11

In Laravel 11, the process of creating a custom routes file and configuring it in the application has changed. But it has become easier than even older versions of Laravel.

In this easy and short guide, we will show you how to create a custom route file and use it in laravel 11 application, with example.

 

Step 1: Create a Custom Route File

Go to routes folder and make custom route file named teacher.php.

After that, add the following test route to admin.php file, something like this:

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

//==== admin.php ======//

Route::get('/', function () {

    return "welcome to admin route";

});

 

 

Step 2: Add Route Files to App.php

Open app.php file from bootstrap folder and add or register your custom routes file in it; something like this:

<?php

 

use Illuminate\Foundation\Application;

 

return Application::configure(basePath: dirname(__DIR__))

    ->withRouting(

        web: __DIR__.'/../routes/web.php',

        commands: __DIR__.'/../routes/console.php',

        health: '/up',

    )->create();

However, sometimes you may want to define an entirely new file to contain a subset of your application's routes. To accomplish this, you may provide a then closure to the routing method. Within this closure, you may register any additional routes that are necessary for your application:

 

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

 

->withRouting(

    web: __DIR__.'/../routes/web.php',

    commands: __DIR__.'/../routes/console.php',

    health: '/up',

    then: function () {

        Route::middleware('web')

            ->prefix('admin')

            ->name('admin.')

            ->group(base_path('routes/admin.php'));

    },

)

Or, you may even take complete control over route registration by providing a closure to the withRouting method. When this argument is passed, no HTTP routes will be registered by the framework and you are responsible for manually registering all routes.

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

 

->withRouting(

    commands: __DIR__.'/../routes/console.php',

    using: function () {

        Route::middleware('api')

            ->prefix('api')

            ->group(base_path('routes/api.php'));

 

        Route::middleware('web')

            ->group(base_path('routes/web.php'));

    },

)

Step 3: Use Custom Routes

Now you can define your routes in custom admin.php route file and use it as follows:

http://localhost:8000/admin/* 

 

Conclusion

This is simple and short guide on how to create and use custom route file in Laravel 11 application.
