Laravel 5.6 - New @method and @csrf Blade Directives

Laravel 5.6 – New @method and @csrf Blade Directives

Laravel is gonna introduce two new Blade Directives as part of 5.6 release, @method and @csrf Directives.

In the current Laravel 5.5 version, we are doing the following at the top of forms to create hidden inputs for the CSRF token and the spoofed HTTP method –

<form>
  {{ csrf_field() }}
  {{ method_field('PUT') }}
  .....
  .......
  ......
</form>

<form>

.....

.......

......

</form>

In the Version 5.6, you can use new Blade Directives as shown below to create hidden inputs for the CSRF token and the spoofed HTTP method

<form>
  @method('put')
  @csrf
  .....
  .......
  ......
</form>

<form>

@method('put')

@csrf

.....

.......

......

</form>
