Hi I am trying to do the following in Laravel 5.2.
Summary: Pass some variables from middleware to view, via controller
Detailed: When a client is logged in, no matter what route they want, we need to check if they have completed all "setup steps" (each step refers to a different route, e.g. one could be company info, another could be product settings, etc). If they have completed all setup steps, then let them proceed to their chosen route, otherwise we redirect to the appropriate "setup steps" route, whichever one they haven't completed yet.
All client controllers run the same middleware, called NonSuperAdmin. I would like to put the checking of "setup steps" in this middleware, and redirect from there as appropriate. If client is redirected to a setup route by this middleware, we need the "incompleteSetupTasks" collection to be passed on to the relevant view, via the appropriate setup steps controller method.
Is this possible? Any help is much appreciated.

In the middleware use session handler
if($condition === true){
$data = [ //your content ];
Session::flash('your_key', $data);
}
next($request);
This data will also be available in your controller and in view
This is how you can access data in controller
public function yourControllerAction($request)
{
$somevariable = Session::get('your_key');
$viewdata = [
'content' => $somevariable
]
return view('yourview', $viewdata);
}
Or directly access the session data in view
//inblade
<p>
Your html content
@foreach(Session::get('your_key' as $data)
//your stuff
@endif
</p>

You can pass your setup steps to get or post parameters and check in routes with middleware if these parameters are empty:
Route::get('post/{setup1?}/{setup2?}', ['middleware' => 'role:admin', function ($setup1, $setup2) {
if(empty($setup1) and empty($setup2)){
// do smth
} else {
// redirect
}
}]);
Question marks mean, that they are optional parameters. Hope it was helpful.
