Extending Laravel Illuminate\Routing\Router

Readme.md

1. Extend the Illuminate\Routing\Router to the (for example) App\Illuminate\Routing\Router.
2. Add method setMiddleware and setMiddlewareGroups to your App\Illuminate\Routing\Router

<?php

namespace App\Illuminate\Routing;

use Illuminate\Routing\Router as BaseRouter;

class Router extends BaseRouter
{
    ......

    /**
     * Set the middleware.
     *
     * @param  array  $middleware
     * @return void
     */
    public function setMiddleware(array $middleware)
    {
        $this->middleware = $middleware;
    }

    /**
     * Set the middleware groups.
     *
     * @param  array  $middlewareGroups
     * @return void
     */
    public function setMiddlewareGroups(array $middlewareGroups)
    {
        $this->middlewareGroups = $middlewareGroups;
    }
}

3. Add method setRouter to your App\Http\Kernel

<?php

namespace App\Http;

use Illuminate\Foundation\Http\Kernel as HttpKernel;
use Illuminate\Routing\Router;

class Kernel extends HttpKernel
{
    ......

    /**
     * Set the router instance to the Kernel.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Routing\Router  $router
     * @return void
     */
    public function setRouter(Router $router)
    {
        $this->router = $router;
    }
}

4. Add below to your App\Providers/AppServiceProvider, on the register method.

use App\Illuminate\Routing\Router;

......

$this->app->booted(function () {
    $newRouter = new Router($this->app['events'], $this->app);
    $newRouter->setRoutes($this->app['router']->getRoutes());
    $newRouter->setMiddleware($this->app['router']->getMiddleware());
    $newRouter->setMiddlewareGroups($this->app['router']->getMiddlewareGroups());
    $newRouter->middlewarePriority = $this->app['router']->middlewarePriority;

    $this->app['router'] = $newRouter;

    $kernel = $this->app->make(\Illuminate\Contracts\Http\Kernel::class);
    $kernel->setRouter($newRouter);
});

5. Done.
