How to show data after login in laravel?

To show data after login in Laravel, you can create a route and controller method that retrieves the data to be displayed. Here's a general guideline on how to achieve this:

1. Create a route for the page where you want to display the data after login. For example, in your web.php routes file:

1

Route::get('/dashboard', 'DashboardController@index')->name('dashboard');

1. Create a controller named DashboardController by running the following command in your terminal:

1

php artisan make:controller DashboardController

1. In the DashboardController, define a method (e.g., index) that retrieves the data you want to display and returns a view:

class DashboardController extends Controller
{
    public function index()
    {
        $data = // Retrieve the data from your database or any other source
        return view('dashboard', compact('data'));
    }
}

1. Create a view file named dashboard.blade.php where you will display the data. You can access the $data variable passed from the controller in this file.
2. In your login controller method (e.g., LoginController), redirect the user to the dashboard route upon successful login:

use IlluminateSupportFacadesAuth;

public function login(Request $request)
{
    // Your login logic here

    if (Auth::attempt($credentials)) {
        return redirect()->route('dashboard');
    }
    
    // Handle login failure
}

1. Ensure that the user is authenticated before accessing the dashboard route by adding the auth middleware to the route:

1

Route::middleware(['auth'])->get('/dashboard', 'DashboardController@index')->name('dashboard');

That's it! After the user logs in successfully, they will be redirected to the dashboard route where the data will be displayed.
