How to force Laravel Project to use HTTPS for all routes?

I am working on a project that requires a secure connection.

I can set the route, uri, asset to use 'https' via:

Route::get('order/details/{id}', ['uses' => 'OrderController@details', 'as' => 'order.details', 'https']);

url($language.'/index', [], true)

asset('css/bootstrap.min.css', true)

But setting the parameters all the time seems tiring.

Is there a way to force all routes to generate HTTPS links?


Place this in the AppServiceProvider in the boot() method

if($this->app->environment('production')) {
    \URL::forceScheme('https');
}

Here are several ways. Choose most convenient.

  1. Configure your web server to redirect all non-secure requests to https. Example of a nginx config:

    server {
        listen 80 default_server;
        listen [::]:80 default_server;
        server_name example.com www.example.com;
        return 301 https://example.com$request_uri;
    }
    
  2. Set your environment variable APP_URL using https:

    APP_URL=https://example.com
    
  3. Use helper secure_url() (Laravel5.6)

  4. Add following string to AppServiceProvider::boot() method (for version 5.4+):

    \Illuminate\Support\Facades\URL::forceScheme('https');
    

Update:

  1. Implicitly setting scheme for route group (Laravel5.6):

    Route::group(['scheme' => 'https'], function () {
        // Route::get(...)->name(...);
    });
    

You can set 'url' => 'https://youDomain.com' in config/app.php or you could use a middleware class Laravel 5 - redirect to HTTPS.


I used this at the end of the web.php or api.php file and it worked perfectly:

URL::forceScheme('https');

Using the following code in your .htaccess file automatically redirects visitors to the HTTPS version of your site:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
