Routing for requests which are not saved into routes-CodePudding

I want all requests for which there is no route to be checked for the length of the characters after the domain. If the number is less than 5, a certain controller with a certain action should be called and if it is >=5, another controller and action should be called.

Sample: 1. https://test.com/abcd should be use this controller/action controller: color action: colortype

2. https://test.com/aabbc should use this controller/action controler: car action: type

3. https://test.com/infos should call infos controller, because there is a route saved into web.php or api.php

How can I realize it? Thanks for help.

You can use controller redirection for it

In web.php:

Route::get('/{text}', function ($text){
    if ($text == 'infos'){
        return redirect()->action([InfosController::class, 'infoAction']);
    }
    
    if (strlen($text) >= 5){
        return redirect()->action([ActionController::class, 'carAction']);
    }

    return redirect()->action([ActionController::class, 'colorAction']);
});

Or you can offload it to middleware class

Another Way with Regex:

Route::get('infos',[InfosController::class, 'infoAction']);
    
    
Route::get('{lessThan5}', [InfosController::class, 'colorAction'])
->where('lessThan5', '^(.{1,4})');


Route::get('{greatherThan5}', [InfosController::class, 'typeAction'])
->where('greatherThan5', '^(.{5,})');
