If one line on Laravel
In Laravel (or any PHP-based framework), you can use one-line conditional statements within your Blade templates (HTML files) using Blade’s built-in syntax. For a one-liner if
statement in HTML, Blade provides the @if
directive, or you can use a shorthand {{ condition ? 'true case' : 'false case' }}
syntax.
1. Using @if
directive in one line
For a quick if
condition in one line, you can do something like this:
@if ($condition) This will show if the condition is true. @endif
Example:
<p>@if($isAdmin) Welcome, Admin! @endif</p>
2. Using ternary operator
Another way is using the ternary operator directly in Blade’s output tags:
{{ $condition ? 'Value if true' : 'Value if false' }}
Example:
<p>{{ $isAdmin ? 'Welcome, Admin!' : 'Welcome, Guest!' }}</p>
This method is great for keeping things concise and readable, especially in cases where you are displaying text or applying classes.
3. Shorthand @isset
and @empty
You can also use @isset
or @empty
for checking if a variable is set or empty, respectively.
Example:
{{ isset($username) ? $username : 'Guest' }}
This makes your conditional logic clean and maintains the flow of the HTML without breaking into multiple lines.
