Store notifications data with saveMany Contents - laravel

Question

So what I am trying to do is store notifications to the database with Notifiable, but I have a saveMany contents and I don't know how to declare the data in the notifications. getting a null from what I've declared like the picture below
this is my saveMany store
$post = new Post;
$post->user_id = Auth::guard('webcontrol')->user()->id;
$post->lob = $request->lob;
$post->type = 'post';
$post->category_id = $request->category_id;
$post->is_published = $request->is_published;
$post->published_at = ($request->published_at) ? $request->published_at : Carbon::now();
$post->metas = '{}';
$post->save();
$post->contents()->saveMany([
new PostContent([
'lang' => 'id',
'slug' => str_slug($request->contents['id']['title'], '-'),
'title' => $request->contents['id']['title'],
'body' => $request->contents['id']['body'],
'image' => $request->contents['id']['image'],
'tag' => $request->contents['id']['tag'],
'metas' => serialize($request->contents['id']['metas']),
]),
new PostContent([
'lang' => 'en',
'slug' => str_slug($request->contents['en']['title'], '-'),
'title' => $request->contents['en']['title'],
'body' => $request->contents['en']['body'],
'image' => $request->contents['en']['image'],
'tag' => $request->contents['en']['tag'],
'metas' => serialize($request->contents['en']['metas']),
])
]);
Notification::send($user, new OneSignalNotification($post));
dd('done');
this is my Notification
class OneSignalNotification extends Notification
{
use Queueable;
public $post;
public function __construct($post)
{
$this->post = $post;
}
public function via($notifiable)
{
return ['database'];
}
public function toDatabase($notifiable)
{
return [
'body' => $this->post['body'], //this is where i confused how to declare the saveMany contents so its not returning null
];
}
}

So I'm not sure what you're trying to achieve but the issue is with the fact that you want to retrieve the body from the post, but the way I see it, the $post doesn't have a body property. The PostContent seems to have the body property, but the problem is that you saved many PostContent to the same $post, so therefore there are multiple body properties, one for each PostContent. So that's why I would recommend use the first() method to get the first PostContent from $post and then return it. If you want to return all the body property, you would have to get all of them and add them into an array or a string, or whatever you want. I hope this makes sense.
You should try using this:
$post = new Post;
$post->user_id = Auth::guard('webcontrol')->user()->id;
$post->lob = $request->lob;
$post->type = 'post';
$post->category_id = $request->category_id;
$post->is_published = $request->is_published;
$post->published_at = ($request->published_at) ? $request->published_at : Carbon::now();
$post->metas = '{}';
$post->save();
$post->contents()->saveMany([
new PostContent([
'lang' => 'id',
'slug' => str_slug($request->contents['id']['title'], '-'),
'title' => $request->contents['id']['title'],
'body' => $request->contents['id']['body'],
'image' => $request->contents['id']['image'],
'tag' => $request->contents['id']['tag'],
'metas' => serialize($request->contents['id']['metas']),
]),
new PostContent([
'lang' => 'en',
'slug' => str_slug($request->contents['en']['title'], '-'),
'title' => $request->contents['en']['title'],
'body' => $request->contents['en']['body'],
'image' => $request->contents['en']['image'],
'tag' => $request->contents['en']['tag'],
'metas' => serialize($request->contents['en']['metas']),
])
]);
Notification::send($user, new OneSignalNotification($post->fresh()));
dd('done');
And then inside the Notification, like I said, we take the first PostContent from the $post and get it's body property:
class OneSignalNotification extends Notification
{
use Queueable;
public $post;
public function __construct($post)
{
$this->post = $post;
}
public function via($notifiable)
{
return ['database'];
}
public function toDatabase($notifiable)
{
return [
'body' => $this->contents()->first()->body,
];
}
}
