How to handle JSON data in Laravel?

I use Laravel as tool for building RESTful application.

There is an end-point /settings/update that takes JSON of user settings.

I send to this address data in JSON format.

How to handle this data in Request $request?

So, I can not refer to property as: $request->notifications

When sent as JSON, the Request factory will allow you to access properties of that object.

Given a JSON object passed like this:

{ 
    "user" : {
         "settings" : {
             "some_setting" : {
                 "value" : 'My value'
             }
         }
    }

}

You can access the value using dot notation:

$request->input('user.settings.some_setting.value');
