A tiny, opinionated package to enable or disable indexing your site via a middleware in Laravel.

## Support us
[
](https://spatie.be/github-ad-click/laravel-robots-middleware)
We invest a lot of resources into creating [best in class open source packages](https://spatie.be/open-source). You can support us by [buying one of our paid products](https://spatie.be/open-source/support-us).
We highly appreciate you sending us a postcard from your hometown, mentioning which of our package(s) you are using. You'll find our address on [our contact page](https://spatie.be/about-us). We publish all received postcards on [our virtual postcard wall](https://spatie.be/open-source/postcards).
## Installation
You can install the package via composer:
``` bash
$ composer require spatie/laravel-robots-middleware
```
## Usage
By default, the middleware enables indexing on all pages. You'll probably want to inherit your own class containing you application's indexing rule handler.
```php
// app/Http/Middleware/MyRobotsMiddleware.php
namespace App\Http\Middleware;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Spatie\RobotsMiddleware\RobotsMiddleware;
class MyRobotsMiddleware extends RobotsMiddleware
{
/**
* @return string|bool
*/
protected function shouldIndex(Request $request)
{
return $request->segment(1) !== 'admin';
}
}
```
Next, simply register the newly created class in your middleware stack.
```php
// app/Http/Kernel.php
class Kernel extends HttpKernel
{
protected $middleware = [
// ...
\App\Http\Middleware\MyRobotsMiddleware::class,
];
// ...
}
```
That's it! Responses will now always have an `x-robots-tag` in their headers, containing an `all` or `none` value.
