Laravel generate routes based on defined url in env file-CodePudding

I use the following method to generate route URLs:

route('example')

It seems this method generated URLs based on the current URL ($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']) with binding to the defined routes in api.php file.
How can I use APP_URL defined in env file to generate the URLs instead of the current URL?

CodePudding user response：

If you need to you can force the domain :

URL::forceRootUrl(config('app.url'));

but that's not a good idea, you should always use the domain that the user used to access your app, you will have issues when changing the domain like that, like sessions issues

I think u search for asset() or url()

$url = asset('img/photo.jpg'); // return: http://example.com/assets/img/photo.jpg
