RedirectorMiddleware ​

File: src/Http/Middleware/RedirectorMiddleware.php
Alias: modularous.redirector
Part of: modularous.panel group

Consumes a pending redirect URL stored by RedirectService and issues the redirect before the request reaches the controller.

What It Does ​

php
$redirectUrl = $this->redirectService->pull();
if ($redirectUrl) {
    return Redirect::to($redirectUrl);
}
return $next($request);

RedirectService::pull() reads the pending URL from the session or cache and removes it in the same operation. If a URL is present, the response is a redirect immediately — the controller is never invoked.

When It Fires ​

Only on modularous.panel routes (authenticated admin panel). If no pending redirect is stored, the request continues normally.

Typical Use Case ​

A controller stores a redirect URL for a future request (e.g., after a multi-step wizard or OAuth flow):

php
// Step 1 controller — save destination
app(RedirectService::class)->store(route('admin.orders.index'));

// RedirectorMiddleware on the next panel request:
// → pulls the URL → redirects to admin.orders.index
// → subsequent requests pass through normally
  • RedirectService — the service that stores and retrieves the pending URL.
