How can I add a route middleware for only edit method in the MyController?

I tried this, but it doesn't work!

routes.php:

Route::get('/edit', [
  'middleware' => 'ageCheck',
  'MyController@edit'
]);

Accepted Answer

You can add it at the end of the route that you define:

Route::get('/edit', 'MyController@edit')->middleware('ageCheck');

Another option would be to put it in the construct of your class:

class Mycontroller {

    public function __construct() {
        $this->middleware('ageCheck')->only('edit');
    }

Answer 2

if you using laravel 5.3 and greater. try this

 Route::get('/edit','MyController@edit')->middleware('ageCheck');
