use Illuminate\Http\Request; $request = Request::create('/example', 'GET'); $method = $request->getMethod(); // Output: 'GET' echo $method;
use Illuminate\Http\Request; if (Request::getMethod() == 'POST') { // Do something if the method is POST } else { // Do something else if the method is not POST }In this example, we use the `getRequest()` function to get the current request object, and then use `getMethod()` to check the HTTP method. If the HTTP method is 'POST', we perform some action, otherwise we do something else. Overall, the getMethod() function is a useful tool for determining the HTTP method used in the current request. It is a part of the Laravel framework's illuminate/http package library, which provides a variety of functions and tools for working with HTTP requests and responses.
