A bug was detected when using the `prefix` method without `group` method

[andrey-helldar]

Laravel Version

10.32.1

PHP Version

8.2.12

Database Driver & Version

No response

Description

When using the prefix method on routes that are not groups, it incorrectly generates the destination URL.

It should be like this:

POST api/orders/some ..... orders.index › OrderController@index
POST api/webhook/some ............. webhook › WebhookController

But this option is displayed instead:

POST api/orders/some ..... orders.index › OrderController@index
POST webhook/api/some ............. webhook › WebhookController

Steps To Reproduce

1. Create a controllers:

   php artisan make:controller OrderController
   php artisan make:controller WebhookController -i

2. Create routes:

   use App\Http\Controllers\OrderController;
   use App\Http\Controllers\WebhookController;
   
   app('router')
       ->name('orders.')
       ->prefix('orders')
       ->controller(OrderController::class)
       ->group(static function () {
           app('router')->post('some', 'index')->name('index');
       });
   
   app('router')
       ->name('webhook')
       ->prefix('webhook')
       ->post('some', WebhookController::class);

3. Execute the console command:

   php artisan route:list

Hello, I have tested with the examples provider, and I have the same result as @andrey-helldar

I've also noticed that it doesn't matter what route and controller names are used. The only important thing is to call the prefix method without using a group:

// incorrect
app('router')->prefix('some')->get('foo', SomeController::class);

// correct
app('router')->prefix('some')->group(
    fn () => app('router')->get('foo', SomeController::class);
);

For example:

app('router')->name('foo')->prefix('foo')->get('some', WebhookController::class);
app('router')->name('foo')->prefix('foo')->post('some', WebhookController::class);
app('router')->name('foo')->prefix('foo')->put('some', WebhookController::class);
app('router')->name('foo')->prefix('foo')->patch('some', WebhookController::class);
app('router')->name('foo')->prefix('foo')->delete('some', WebhookController::class);

app('router')->name('bar')->prefix('bar')->get('some', [WebhookController::class, 'some']);
app('router')->name('bar')->prefix('bar')->post('some', [WebhookController::class, 'some']);
app('router')->name('bar')->prefix('bar')->put('some', [WebhookController::class, 'some']);
app('router')->name('bar')->prefix('bar')->patch('some', [WebhookController::class, 'some']);
app('router')->name('bar')->prefix('bar')->delete('some', [WebhookController::class, 'some']);

Result:

  POST      bar/api/some ................................................................ WebhookController@some

  PATCH     bar/api/some ................................................................ WebhookController@some
  DELETE    bar/api/some ................................................................ WebhookController@some
  GET|HEAD  foo/api/some ............................................................... foo › WebhookController
  POST      foo/api/some ............................................................... foo › WebhookController
  PUT       foo/api/some ............................................................... foo › WebhookController
  PATCH     foo/api/some ............................................................... foo › WebhookController
  DELETE    foo/api/some ............................................................... foo › WebhookController

I would feel the current behavior is expected, since prefix is more useful for grouped routes. Feel free to submit PR if you want to improve the behavior
