Laravel 5 Remove Public from URL

Question

I know this is a very popular question but I haven t been able to find a working solution for Laravel 5  I ve been trying to migrate from Codeigniter for a long time  but this convoluted installation process keeps putting me off   I don t want to run a VM  this just seems awkward when switching between projects   I don t want to set my document root to the public folder  this is also awkward when switching between projects   I ve tried the  htaccess mod rewrite method   lt IfModule mod rewrite c gt    RewriteEngine On   RewriteRule        public  1  L   lt  IfModule gt    This just gives me a Laravel NotFoundHttpException in compiled php line 7610   When I tried L4 a while ago  I used the method of moving the contents of the public folder into the root  The structure of L5 is quite different and following the same steps completely broke Laravel  the server would only return a blank page    Is there a decent method of removing  public  in a development environment that    Works with L5 Allows me to switch between projects with ease  I m usually working on 2 or 3 at any one time     Thanks     I m using MAMP and PHP 5 6 2

There is always a reason to have a public folder in the Laravel setup  all public related stuffs should be present inside the public folder       Don t Point your ip address domain to the Laravel s root folder but point it to the public folder  It is unsafe pointing the server Ip to the root folder   because unless you write restrictions in  htaccess  one can easily access the other files      Just write rewrite condition in the  htaccess file and install rewrite module and enable the rewrite module  the problem which adds public in the route will get solved

BEST Approach  I will not recommend removing public  instead on local computer create a virtual host point to public directory and on remote hosting change public to public html and point your domain to this directory  Reason  your whole laravel code will be secure because its one level down to your public directory      METHOD 1   I just rename server php to index php and it works  METHOD 2   This work well for all laravel version     Here is my Directory Structure    laravel      app     bootstrap     public     etc   Follow these easy steps   move all files from public directory to root  laravel  now  no need of public directory  so optionally you can remove it now now open index php and make following replacements          require DIR      bootstrap autoload php       to       require DIR   bootstrap autoload php       and      app   require once DIR      bootstrap start php       to      app   require once DIR   bootstrap start php      now open bootstrap paths php and change public directory path        public     DIR      public     to      public     DIR          and that s it  now try http    localhost laravel

Just create  htaccess file at root and add these lines to it   lt IfModule mod rewrite c gt      RewriteEngine On      RewriteRule        public  1  L   lt  IfModule gt    That s it   The above code works on the root public html folder  Having said that your core laravel file should be inside the public html folder  if your directory looks like public html laravelapp public and if you put the above code inside laravelapp it won t work  Therefore you must copy all your core files into public html and put the  htaccess file there    If you want to keep the code in a subdirectory then you can create a subdomain then this code will work for that also

DON T  YOU REALLY SHOULD NOT rename server php in your Laravel root folder to index php and copy the  htaccess file from the  public directory to your Laravel root folder    This way everyone can access some of your files   env for example   Try it yourself  You don t want that   DO Instead  you should create an  htaccess file in your root like this  RewriteEngine On RewriteCond   REQUEST URI     public  RewriteRule         public  1  L QSA   This will silently rewrite all your base URIs to the  public folder  Even all Headers  for example the HTTP Authorization Header  and all optional URI parameters will silently be passed on to the  public folder as well  That s all Please note when setting up a Laravel project with Docker  you won t need to do any of this

1  I haven t found a working method for moving the public directory in L5   While you can modify some things in the bootstrap index php  it appears several helper functions are based on the assumption of that public directory being there   In all honestly you really shouldn t be moving the public directory   2  If your using MAMP then you should be creating new vhosts for each project  each serving that projects public directory   Once created you access each project by your defined server name like this    http   project1 dev http   project2 dev

Even if i do not recommend putting Laravel on the root folder there are some cases when it could not be avoided  for those cases the above methods do not work for assets so i made a quick fix changing the htaccess  after copying server php to index php edit the  htaccess file like so    lt IfModule mod rewrite c gt       lt IfModule mod negotiation c gt          Options -MultiViews      lt  IfModule gt       RewriteEngine On          fix file rewrites on root path          select file url     RewriteCond   REQUEST URI              if file exists in  public  lt filename gt      RewriteCond   DOCUMENT ROOT  public  1 -f      redirect to  public  lt filename gt      RewriteRule        public  1  L                             Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder        RewriteCond   REQUEST FILENAME   -d     RewriteRule           1  L R 301         Handle Front Controller          RewriteCond   REQUEST FILENAME  -d   comment this rules or the user will read non-public file and folders       RewriteCond   REQUEST FILENAME  -f       RewriteRule   index php  L   lt  IfModule gt    This was a quick fix i had to make so anyone is welcome to upgrade it

rimon ekjon said   Rename the server php in the your Laravel root folder to index php and copy the  htaccess file from  public directory to your Laravel root folder  -- Thats it        That s working for me  But all resource files in  public directory couldn t find and request urls didn t work  because I used asset   helper  I changed  Illuminate Foundation helpers php asset   function as follows  function asset  path   secure   null        return app  url  - gt asset  quot public  quot   path   secure      Now everything works    Thank you  rimon ekjon and all of you  2020 Author s Update This answer is not recommended  Instead  handling  htaccess file is recommended
