Laravel: Is there a way to reuse a method that is using a Request variable as parameter?

I want to reuse my method store that is in generar\productoController

public function store(Request $request){}

and I want to reuse it in this class adquisicion\ComprasController, I know that I have to import the class to use the method i want, but the problem is the $request variable, should I create a new object of it with $request = new Request(), adding the data I want with this and sending it as parameter?

Thx for the help I'm really new with laravel

Here are two ways that can make methods reusable in laravel application:

  1. Make a helper method

    Create a Helpers folder in app folder, and create all static methods inside a helper.php

    Helper.php

    namespace App\Helpers;

class Helper {

    public static function store() {
        $request = request();
        // ....
    }

}

    YourController.php

    namespace App\Repositories;

use App\Helpers\Helper;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;

class YourController extends Controller
{

    public function store(Request $request) {
        // call the store method as
        Helper::store();
    }

}

    The downside here is you will mix up all the non-related helper methods here and may difficult to organize.

  2. Repository

    You can use a Repository Pattern to architect your application, for example, if you store a foo object to your datastore, then you can first create Repositories folder in app folder, and create FooRepository.php in Repositories folder:

    FooRepository.php

    namespace App\Repositories;

class FooRepository {

    public function store() {
        $request = request();
        // ... 
    }

}

    YourController.php

    namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use App\Repositories\FooRepository;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;

class YourController extends Controller
{
    private $fooRepository = null;

    public function __construct(FooRepository $fooRepository) {
        parent::__construct();
        $this->fooRepository = $fooRepository;
    }

    public function store(Request $request) {
        // call the method as
        $this->fooRepository->store();
    }

}

You can pass Request data to other method 

productoController(Request $request){
     // anything here
    return redirect('your route name')->with('data', $request->all());
}

you can try it like this $this->store(request(),$otherData)
use the helper to get the current object of request
