Set session variable in laravel

Question

I would like to set a variable in the session using laravel this way  Session  set  variableName    value    but the problem is that I don t know where to put this code   cause I would like to set it for one time  when the guest visite the home page or any other page   The main idea is to use a global variable to use it in all application controllers  I heared about something related to configuration variables but I m not sure if it will be a good Idea to use config variables or only the session  Thanks

to set session you can try this    request- gt session  - gt put  key   value      also to get session data you can try this    request- gt session  - gt get  key      If you want to get all session data    request- gt session  - gt all

I think your question ultimately can be boiled down to this      Where can I set a long-lived value that is accessible globally in my application    The obvious answer is that it depends   What it depends on are a couple of factors    Will the value ever be different  or is it going to be the same for everybody  How long exactly is long-lived   Forever  A Day  One browsing  session      Config  If the value is the same for everyone and will seldom change  the best place to probably put it is in a configuration file somewhere underneath app config  e g  app config companyname php    lt  php return        somevalue    gt  10       You could access this value from anywhere in your application via Config  get  companyname somevalue    Session  If the value you are intending to store is going to be different for each user  the most logical place to put it is in Session   This is what you allude to in your question  but you are using incorrect syntax   The correct syntax to store a variable in Session is   Session  put  somekey    somevalue      The correct syntax to retrieve it back out later is   Session  get  somekey      As far as when to perform these operations  that s a little up to you   I would probably choose a route filter if on Laravel 4 x or Middleware if using Laravel 5   Below is an example of using a route filter that leverages another class to actually come up with the value      File  ValueMaker php  saved in some folder that can be autoloaded  class ValueMaker       public function makeValue                 return 42              File  app filters php is probably the best place Route  filter  set value   function          valueMaker   app  - gt make  ValueMaker        Session  put  somevalue    valueMaker- gt makeValue             File  app routes php Route  group   before    gt   set value    function           Value has already been  made  by this point      return View  make  view          - gt with  value   Session  get  somevalue

The correct syntax for this is     Session  set  variableName    value     For Laravel 5 4 and later  the correct method to use is put   Session  put  variableName    value     To get the variable  you d use     Session  get  variableName      If you need to set it once  I d figure out when exactly you want it set and use Events to do it   For example  if you want to set it when someone logs in  you d use     Event  listen  auth login   function         Session  set  variableName    value

For example  To store data in the session  you will typically use the putmethod or the session helper      Via a request instance     request- gt session  - gt put  key    value      or     Via the global helper    session   key    gt   value       for retrieving an item from the session  you can use get     value    request- gt session  - gt get  key    default value      or global session helper      value   session  key    default value      To determine if an item is present in the session  you may use the has method   if   request- gt session  - gt has  users
