laravel-localization: Route Trans Caching is broken with Livewire 3

Describe the bug When using Livewire 3, it is not possible to cache the localized routes with php artisan route:trans:cache. Livewire 2 automatically preserved the URL prefix when making component updates via https://example.com/en/livewire/update Livewire 3 has stopped supporting this behavior automatically. See official Livewire documentation mentioning Laravel Localization: https://livewire.laravel.com/docs/upgrading#localization

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Require Livewire 3 and update the Livewire update route (as recommended in the official Livewire documentation)
Cache localized routes using: php artisan route:trans:cache
Browse your website using a Laravel Localization locale (EN in my example)
Open the browser console and click on a Livewire button (or any Livewire action)
Console logs a call to /livewire/update instead of /en/livewire/update and returns a 404

Expected behavior When browing the FR locale (or any other locales), you would expect Livewire to call /en/livewire/update instead of the non-localized route /livewire/update This only fails when php artisan route:trans:cache has been run previously. If you run php artisan route:trans:clear, it works correctly. So something is broken in caching the route.

Maybe I found a solution inspired by this file.

Remove this block from the web.php…

Livewire::setUpdateRoute(function ($handle) {
    return Route::post('/livewire/update', $handle);
});

… and put it in the RouteServiceProvider.php. Don’t forget the middleware() and prefix() method.

use Mcamara\LaravelLocalization\Facades\LaravelLocalization;
use Livewire\Livewire;

// ...

/**
 * Define your route model bindings, pattern filters, and other route configuration.
 *
 * @return void
 */
public function boot()
{
    Livewire::setUpdateRoute(function ($handle) {
        return Route::post('/livewire/update', $handle)
            ->middleware('web')
            ->prefix(LaravelLocalization::setLocale());
    });

    // ...
}

Now Livewire::setUpdateRoute will not be cached if you run php artisan route:trans:cache.

Same here. Cache is broken.

I does work without caching while adding the new setUpdateRoute method to the route group.

Route::group(['prefix' => LaravelLocalization::setLocale()], function ()
{
    // Your other localized routes...
 
    Livewire::setUpdateRoute(function ($handle) {
        return Route::post('/livewire/update', $handle);
    });
});

Awesome, this works perfectly!

Whatever the culprit is both Livewire 3 and LaravelLocalization are quite popular packages. But I’d say it’s easier to fix LaravelLocalization. Or at least put the info in the docs how fix it for now.

I am having this issue without the route:trans:cache. I can clear it and still get the error. It is posting to /livewire/update instead of /en/livewire/update

genius, thankyou it saves to put the hands in livewire.

//Livewire\Mechanisms\PersistentMiddleware\PersistentMiddleware::getRouteFromRequest($request) 

$route = app('router')->getRoutes()->match($request);

the getRoutes function was failing to find the route in livewire even if i put livewire/update in the ignore list.

your solution is simple and elegant (after you know how 😃

Thank you so much! You saved my day!

The workaround is on the top of this thread.

Route::group([‘prefix’ => LaravelLocalization::setLocale()], function () { // Your other localized routes…

Livewire::setUpdateRoute(function ($handle) {
    return Route::post('/livewire/update', $handle);
});

});

What is needed is a permanent solution and a bit of attention by the package owner.

Did anybody found a workaround?
