title: Laravel5 Json get file contents
body: <p>I'm using <code>Laravel-5</code> right now and I've just created a <code>JSON</code> file called test(test.json). My question is:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Where should I put my JSON file?</li>
  <li>How can I use file_get_contents and point to that one file I wanted?</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>This is what I've tried which is obviously wrong:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$string = file_get_contents("../json/test.json");   
  $json_file = json_decode($string, true);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Thank you so much for helping!</p>
