Fix: front-end not working when Laravel is installed in a subdirectory

[Zerquix18]

After my pull request #272 I found out that the routes in vue-route were also pointing at /telescope (in the root directory), so anytime I clicked on something, it just showed me a 404 error. I fixed this again after hours of experimenting, and after testing, it works when:

• Laravel is installed in the DOCUMENT_ROOT directory
• Laravel is installed in a subdirectory
• Laravel is called from a subdomain

I can finally use it in peace.

Hope this is useful.

Don't run Laravel in a sub-directory.

I hope you reconsider this if more people in the future come with this problem.

@taylorotwell @themsaid But most peoples use laravel in sub directorty until they release it in product environment. i hope it will fix in next update.

@amitm13 maybe use a view composer since its using a variable.

View::composer(['telescope::layout'], function ($view) { $view->with('telescopeScriptVariables', [ 'path' => 'subfolder/admin/telescope', 'timezone' => config('app.timezone'), 'recording' => ! cache('telescope:pause-recording'), ]); });

@joshuand1990 That did the trick, thank you.

@joshuand1990 @grey-dev-0 can you please tell me in little detail, i am new to laravel.

[grey-dev-0]

@itsmekps In your AppServiceProvider class add the lines in @joshuand1990 's comment to the boot method.

“Most people” use sub domains not sub directories for staging

[grey-dev-0]

@dillingham using subdomains is the right way but, it's not doable for everyone, as for some people they might not be able to access their domain settings to create a subdomain so, they do their testing in a subdirectory instead.

[dillingham]

@grey-dev-0 well it not working in sub directories is a good reason to tell your upper management :) if they setup a domain for your production they can setup a simple sub domain so you can do it, as you put it, “the right way” :)

I have the same problem. I need to see telescope from a subfolder. The rules of Nginx works well for Laravel, but telescope isn't works.

@amitm13 maybe use a view composer since its using a variable.

View::composer(['telescope::layout'], function ($view) { $view->with('telescopeScriptVariables', [ 'path' => 'subfolder/admin/telescope', 'timezone' => config('app.timezone'), 'recording' => ! cache('telescope:pause-recording'), ]); });

This worked for me. Thank you!

Worked like a charm!
