Here is my controller:
in laravel-8 default remove namespace prefix so you can set old way in laravel-7 like:
in RouteServiceProvider.php
add this variable
protected $namespace = 'App\Http\Controllers';
and update boot
method
public function boot()
{
$this->configureRateLimiting();
$this->routes(function () {
Route::middleware('web')
->namespace($this->namespace)
->group(base_path('routes/web.php'));
Route::prefix('api')
->middleware('api')
->namespace($this->namespace)
->group(base_path('routes/api.php'));
});
}
