how to get url segments count in laravel 5?

Question

I have following Route,

http:/localhost/seg1/seg2/seg3

how to get Request::segment count from the url above ?

Expected result is,

$totalSegsCount = 3

Thanks,

Answer 1

The Request object has a function that returns all segments, place that in a count() to get the number you seek:

$totalSegsCount = count(Request::segments());
