How to Render Html String in Blade in Laravel ?

Blade is a template engine to write the syntax easily and powerfully. To render html string in blade in laravel we use {!! $htmlstring !!}. Using the blade template we can easily print a variable, can create loops and can create directives and components too.

Laravel blade template uses filename.blade.php extensions and the advantages of it are so huge like we can easily include, create directive, sections, loops, conditional statements etc. in blade.

Here is the syntax of html string in blade in laravel

{!! $htmlstring !!}

here $htmlstring variable is string which contains html like <h1> this is test </h1>.

Let’s understand it with an example

Step 1: Create a fresh laravel project

composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel blog

Step 2: Add routes in routes/web.php

Create routes to call our controller and blade file in it.

routes/web.php

<?php
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
 
Route::get('/test-html',function(){
 
 $htmlstring="<h1> Test String </h1>";
 $normalString = "test normal";
 return view("example-view",["htmlstring"=>$htmlstring,'normalString'=>"normalString"]);
});

Step 3: Create View File

Now, create a example-view.blade.php in resource/views folder.

 <p> this is a test </p>
 html string : 
 {!! $htmlstring !!}
 
 normalString :
 {{ $normalString }}

How to disable html entity encoding in laravel blade ?

Laravel by default double encode html entities, sometimes we wanted to disable this feature so for this purpose we can disable it from AppServiceProvider and we need to add Blade::withoutDoubleEncoding method in the boot method as below

<?php
 
namespace App\Providers;
 
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Blade;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;
 
class AppServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    /**
     * Bootstrap any application services.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function boot()
    {
        Blade::withoutDoubleEncoding();
    }
}
