'as' parameter in the route::controller - Laravel 5.2

Question

Within my application i was working with the following route:

Route::get('router', ['as' => 'router.index', 'uses' => 'RouterController@index']);

For the purposes of using Datatables , the route has to be defined differently.

Route::controller('router', 'RouterController', [
    'dataTablesData' => 'datatables.data',
    'index' => 'router',
    ]);

This causes my application to crash due to the missing 'as' => 'router.index' . Where should I place the as parameter in a Route::controller ?

Answer 1

Route::controller(
    'router',
    'RouterController',
    array(
        'index'     => 'router.index',
    )
);

try something like that?
