Laravel 5 URL Resolver Provider
, (*1)
A simple wrapper for using URLResolver.php in Laravel
This package provides a Laravel 5 service provider and facade for mdf/php-url-resolver, which is a fork of mattwright/URLResolver.php, which seems to no longer be maintained., (*2)
URLResolver.php is a PHP class that attempts to resolve URLs to a final, canonical link. On the web today, link shorteners, tracking codes and more can result in many different links that ultimately point to the same resource. By following HTTP redirects and parsing web pages for open graph and canonical URLs, URLResolver.php attempts to solve this issue., (*3)
When enabled and configured, all this package does is allow more convenient use of the URLResolver.php functionality, through a Laravel facade., (*4)

Via Composer command line:, (*5)

}
}
Step 2: Register the Service Provider
