How do I build RESTful controllers in Laravel?

Building RESTful controllers in Laravel involves utilizing the built-in resources and routing capabilities of the framework. Laravel makes it straightforward to create RESTful APIs by offering the necessary functions and routes to handle standard CRUD operations.

Example of a RESTful Controller

all()); return response()->json($post, 201); } // Update an existing post public function update(Request $request, $id) { $post = Post::findOrFail($id); $post->update($request->all()); return response()->json($post, 200); } // Delete a post public function destroy($id) { Post::destroy($id); return response()->json(null, 204); } } ?>
