Get Current URL Using Laravel

Laravel is a strong php based framework today. We frequently coding on this platform. And who coded its important for him to know / get current working url sometimes. Its easy to get current url inside an Controller/Service class. Just need to use Request attribute to get desired output at Laravel. 

First need to import Request class to Controller/Service class:
use Illuminate\Http\Request;

And then need to pass Request as parameter as follows:
public function someAction(Request $request)

And finally use following method to get current full url:
$request->fullUrl();

You have different options when you use Laravel Request class as follows:

Get the request method
$request->method();

Get the root URL for the application
$request->root();

Get the URL (no query string) for the request
$request->url();

Get the full URL for the request
$request->fullUrl();

Get the current path info for the request
$request->path();

Determine if the request is the result of an AJAX call
$request->ajax(); 

There is another way around to get URL from Laravel Controller. 
At first you have to import following component:
use Illuminate\Routing\UrlGenerator;

Then need to initialize it on construct on controller as follows:
private $UrlGenerator;
public function __construct(UrlGenerator $UrlGenerator)
{
    $this->UrlGenerator = $UrlGenerator;
}

And then use below line of code get Laravel base URL:
$urlGenerator->to("/");
