Share Page to Facebook in Laravel PHP

Share a page from a website button to Facebook

We can easily share a a page to Facebook using below url

https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https://readerstacks.com

You can use it in your html as below

<a target="_blank" href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https://readerstacks.com'>Share to Facebook </a>

Let’s take an example

Step 1 : Create routes

Add appropriate routes to connect our URL to controller therefore open routes/web.php and add below routes

<?php
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
use \App\Http\Controllers\PostController;


Route::get('/share-post',[PostController::class, 'share']);

Here we created one route only that means you can create it anywhere but we are using it only our demo purpose.

Step 2 : Create Controller

Now, create the controller as we have mentioned in routes is PostController and also create three methods create, store and refreshCaptcha so create a file in app\Http\Controllers\PostController.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Validator;


class PostController extends Controller
{

    public function share()
    {
        return view('post.share-post');
    }
}

Step 5 : Create view

We have create the controller and now we will create the view to show the button for sharing on social media

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="{{ str_replace('_', '-', app()->getLocale()) }}">

<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
