[Proposal] Ability to force route groups to be served over HTTPS

[maxhoffmann]

Since it’s possible to force a route to be served over HTTPS it would be cool to have the same ability for route groups too instead of writing a custom filter for that purpose.

Proposed syntax:

// Solution 1
Route::group(array('prefix' => 'secure'), array('https', function()
{
  // code
}));

// Solution 2
Route::group(array('https', 'prefix' => 'secure'), function()
{
  // code
});

Doesn't this already work?

Doesn’t work for me. Solution 2 is ignored and Solution 1 throws an error:

ErrorException: Catchable Fatal Error: Argument 2 passed to Illuminate\Routing\Router::group() must be an instance of Closure, array given, called in /Users/maxhoffmann/Sites/laravel4/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Support/Facades/Facade.php on line 169 and defined in /Users/maxhoffmann/Sites/laravel4/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Routing/Router.php line 588

What do you mean solution 2 is ignored? I just tried it and it seems to work?

Sorry, catched all exceptions except for 405 and my default message was thrown. My bad! Anyway would be great if this possibility is mentioned in the documentation. Thanks guys!
