Laravel 5 Resourceful Routes Plus Middleware

Is it possible to add middleware to all or some items of a resourceful route?

For example...

<?php

Route::resource('quotes', 'QuotesController');

Furthermore, if possible, I wanted to make all routes aside from index and show use the auth middleware. Or would this be something that needs to be done within the controller?

In Laravel with PHP 7, it didn't work for me with multi-method exclude until wrote

Route::group(['middleware' => 'auth:api'], function() {
        
Route::resource('categories', 'CategoryController', ['except' => 'show,index']);
});

maybe that helps someone.

UPDATE FOR LARAVEL 8.x

web.php:

Route::resource('quotes', 'QuotesController');

in your controller:

public function __construct()
{
        $this->middleware('auth')->except(['index','show']);
        // OR
        $this->middleware('auth')->only(['store','update','edit','create']);
}

Been looking for a better solution for Laravel 5.8+.

Here's what i did:

Apply middleware to resource, except those who you do not want the middleware to be applied. (Here index and show)

 Route::resource('resource', 'Controller', [
            'except' => [
                'index',
                'show'
            ]
        ])
        ->middleware(['auth']);

Then, create the resource routes that were except in the first one. So index and show.

Route::resource('resource', 'Controller', [
        'only' => [
            'index',
            'show'
        ]
    ]);

You could use Route Group coupled with Middleware concept: http://laravel.com/docs/master/routing

Route::group(['middleware' => 'auth'], function()
{
    Route::resource('todo', 'TodoController', ['only' => ['index']]);
});

In QuotesController constructor you can then use:

$this->middleware('auth', ['except' => ['index','show']]);
