laravel 6 : Call to a member function store() on null - laravel

I am trying to attach a file to a blog type post. For this i have an file field and 2 buttons, one saves the fields to the database and the other uploads the file. standalone the file upload works as intended. However in the form i get Call to a member function store() on null. I have changed the menthod from put to post, but that doesnt seem have any effect.
Below my post forms and the function in the controllers.
The Form:
<div class="container">
<div class="row justify-content-center">
<div class="col-md-8">
<div class="card">
<div class="card-header">New/Edit Blog</div>
<div class="card-body">
#if($data)
<form … action = "{{Route ('post.update', $data->_id)}}" method="post", enctype = 'multipart/data'>
#csrf
#method('POST')
<div class="form-group">
<label for="usr">Title:</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" name="title" value = "{{$data->title}}" >
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="shorttext">Shorttext:</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" name="shorttext" value = "{{$data->shorttext}}" >
</div>
<div>
<input id="x" type="hidden" name="content" value ="{{$data->content}}">
<trix-editor input="x" ></trix-editor>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="created_by">Created By:</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" name="created_by" value = "{{$data->created_by}}" readonly>
</div>
<input type="file" name="attachment" enctype="multipart/form-data"/>
<p align="center">
<input type="submit" btn btn-primary class="btn btn-primary" id="save" name="action" value="save">
<input type="submit" btn btn-primary class="btn btn-primary" id="upload" name="action" value="upload">
The functions in the controller:
Store:( this one is the function that determines which button is pressed)
public function store(Request $request, $_id = false, $attachment = false){
//check which submit was clicked on
if($request->action == 'upload'){
//
$this->upload($request);
return redirect()->route('home');
} elseif($request->action == 'save') {
//echo 'save pressed';
//run function save all form fields
$this->update($request, $_id);
return redirect()->route('home');
} else {echo "error";}
}
Upload function:
function upload(Request $request){
$path = $request->file('attachment');
// $original = $request->file('attachment')->getClientOriginalName();
$path->store('/public');
Update function:
public function update (Request $request, $_id){
//$this->upload($request);
/*
$path = $request->file('attachment');
$path->storeas('/public','123'); */
$data = post::findOrFail($_id);
$data->title = $request->title;
$data->content = $request->content;
$data->shorttext = $request->shorttext;
$data->created_by = $request->created_by;
$data->text3 = $request->text3;
$data->attachment = $request->attachment;
$data->save();
if($data){
return redirect()->route('home');
}else{
return back();
}
}
The route is:
Route::post('/post/update/{_id}', 'PostController#store')->name('post.update');
As mentioned, the save function in the complete form works. In a standalone form ( and a standalone controller) the upload works (and i can, if i wish, manipulate the filename), but how do i bring the 2 together? At first i thought it was because the update form had a PUT method, but changing everything to post doesnt seem to have any effect and i still get the Null error.
For completeness the standalone solution:
Controller:
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Te7aHoudini\LaravelTrix\Pipes\AttachmentInput;
class UploadController extends Controller
{
//
function upload(Request $req){
$path = $req->file('attachment');
$original = $req->file('attachment')->getClientOriginalName();
$path->storeas('/public',$original);
echo $original;
}
}
The standalone form:
<html>
<head>
<title>Upload</title>
</head>
</html>
<form action="upload" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="attachment" />
#csrf
<button type="submit">file upload</button>
</form>

In your form element Change enctype = 'multipart/data' to enctype="multipart/form-data"
<form … action = "{{ Route ('post.update', $data->_id) }}" method="post", enctype="multipart/form-data">
Hope this solves your problem.

How to use laravel redirect back with compact

I am trying to pass value from the price page via input and redirect back to the price page with a value that has been calculated. I am using two functions for this; one is for get price()-PagesController#pricing and the other one is for post feeCal()-PagesController#feeCal.
public function pricing(Request $request)
{
return response()->view('pages.price');
}
public function feeCal(Request $request)
{
$value = $request->input('price');
if ($value > 500 or $value > 20000) {
$fee = $value * 0.015;
}
// dd($fee);
return redirect()->back()->compact('fee');
}
<form action="{{ route('page.vfee')}}" method="POST">
#csrf
<div class="row">
<input type="number" name="price" class="form-control rounded mb-3" placeholder="Type the price here">
</div>
<div class="row">
<input type="submit" class="btn btn-danger w-100
rounded" value="GET TOTAL FEE">
</div>
</form>
<div class="card-footer">
<div class="text-muted">Total fee</div>
<div class="text-danger">
{{ $fee ?? '' }}
</div>
</div>
When you try to input a value it returns a black value but when you dump the fee variable in the controller function you get a result.
Try one of following
return redirect()->back()->with(compact('fee'));
or
return redirect()->back()->with('fee', $fee);

sending ajax data to a route to call a controller method

I'm trying to pass ajax data to a "settings/addsection/{class_id}" route with parameter so as to call a controller method to log on laravel log file. but logging does not work. So the ajax didn't send data to the route. How do I fix this?.. Note that the $class_id which i passed to the hidden input has value as i have queried it from the database.
JAVASCRIPT
<script>
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded' , function(){
var add = document.getElementById('addSection');
add.addEventListener('submit' , function(e){
e.preventDefault();
var class_id = document.getElementById('class_id').value;
var section = document.getElementById('name').value;
var token = document.getElementsByName('_token')[0].value;
var data = {
name:section,
_token:token
}
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open('POST', 'settings/addsection/' + class_id, true);
xhr.setRequestHeader('Content-Type' , 'application/json');
xhr.send(JSON.stringify(data));
})
})
</script>
HTML
form id = "addSection" method="POST" action=" {{ url('settings/addsection/' .$class_id)}}">
#csrf
<div class="form-group row">
<label for="name" class="col-md-4 col-form-label text-md-right">{{ __('add section') }}</label>
<div class="col-md-6">
<input id="name" name="name" type="text" class="form-control #error('name') is-invalid #enderror" value="{{ old('name') }}" autocomplete="name" autofocus placeholder="A,B,C...Z">
<input type="hidden" id = "class_id" value = "{{$class_id}}">
#error('name')
<span class="invalid-feedback" role="alert">
<strong>{{ $message }}</strong>
</span>
#enderror
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group row mb-0">
<div class="col-md-6 offset-md-4">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary btn-block">
{{ __('Add add section') }}
</button>
</div>
</div>
</form>
this is the web.php where the routes are
Route::middleware(['auth' , 'admin'])->group(function(){
Route::prefix('settings')->group(function(){
Route::post('addsection/{class_id}' , 'SectionController#store');
});
});
SectionController
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Log;
use App\Section;
class SectionController extends Controller
{
public function store(Request $request , $class_id){
//do stuff here
Log::info(' it works');
}
}
I worked around this problem by changing this
xhr.open('POST', 'settings/addsection/' + class_id, true);
to
xhr.open('POST', "{{url('settings/addsection/')}}" + '/' +class_id, true);

How to edit image and update in laravel

I have a table called Services, now this table has the following -
-id
-title
-body
-image
-slug
-timestamps
And in administrator, services page I created for Add, Edit, Delete it.
My problem is edit and update a image. A strange problem is that, when I change the of image to aaaaa field in the service table (database), Nothing happens. should happen. because I changed rename of image to aaaaa.
web.php
Route::resource('services', 'ServiceController');
ServiceController.php
public function edit(Service $service)
{
return view('Admin.services.edit', compact('service'));
}
public function update(Request $request, Service $service)
{
$service->title = $request->title;
$service->body = $request->body;
if($request->has('image')) {
$image = $request->file('image');
$filename = $image->getClientOriginalName();
$image->move(public_path('images/services'), $filename);
$service->image = $request->file('image')->getClientOriginalName();
}
$service->update();
return redirect()->route('services.index');
}
edit.blade.php
<form class="form-horizontal" action="{{ route('services.update', $service->id) }}" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
{{ csrf_field() }}
{{ method_field('PATCH') }}
#include('Admin.layouts.errors')
<div class="form-group">
<label for="title">عنوان</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="title" name="title" placeholder="عنوان" value="{{ $service->title ? : old('title') }}">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="body">متن</label>
<textarea class="form-control" rows="10" id="body" name="body" placeholder="متن">{{ $service->body ? : old('body') }}</textarea>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="images">تصویر</label>
<div class="custom-file">
<input type="file" class="custom-file-input" id="images" name="images">
<label class="custom-file-label" for="images">تصویر محصول</label>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">ذخیره</button>
</div>
</form>
Service.php
protected $fillable = [
'title',
'body',
'image',
'slug',
];
I even changed the controller in the update method as follows, nothing happened.
$service->save();
I think one of efficient way to edit image in laravel.
add this at top of the controller
use File;
First of get your bannerId in a variable
$bannerId = $request->banner_id;
get object of that id by find ().
$bannerData = FrontEndBanner::find($bannerId);
check if file exist and check if file already exist then delete that file else same name will inserted in imageName variable
if ($request->hasFile('banner_image')){
$image_path = public_path("/uploads/resource/".$bannerData->banner_name);
if (File::exists($image_path)) {
File::delete($image_path);
}
$bannerImage = $request->file('banner_image');
$imgName = $bannerImage->getClientOriginalName();
$destinationPath = public_path('/uploads/resource/');
$bannerImage->move($destinationPath, $imgName);
} else {
$imgName = $bannerData->banner_name;
}
$bannerData->title = $request->banner_title;
$bannerData->banner_name = $imgName;
$bannerData->save();
If anyone have issue then comment
In the html you have:
<input type="file" class="custom-file-input" id="images" name="images">
and in Controller: $request->file('image').
Replace
<input type="file" class="custom-file-input" id="images" name="images">
with
<input type="file" class="custom-file-input" id="images" name="image">

Laravel Update Function Not Running Correct Response

When I attempt to update a record in my Laravel application, it is running the wrong URL causing an error 404. This function was working fine when I was developing locally however now it is hosted on a one.com server, it has stopped working.
edit.blade.php
<form method="POST" action="gins/{{ $gins->id }}">
#method('PATCH')
#csrf
<div class="field">
<label class="label" for="gin">Gin</label>
<div class="control">
<input type="text" class="input" name="gin"
placeholder="Gin" value="{{ $gins->gin }}">

<div class="field">

<div class="control">

</div>
</div>
<div class="field">
<div class="control">
<button type="submit" class="button is-success">Update Record
</button>
</div>
</div>
</form>
Route
Route::patch('gins/{gin}', 'PostsController#update')->middleware('auth');
Auth::routes();
Controller
public function update(Request $request, $id)
{
$gins = \App\Gins::findOrFail($id);
$gins->gin = request('gin');
$gins->size = request('size');
$gins->price = request('price');
$gins->save();
return redirect('gins');
}
The URL for the edit page is Laravel/gins/7/edit. When I click the submit button it's returning the URL Laravel/gins/7/gins/7 when it should be redirecting back to Laravel/gins/7.
The 7 in the Url is the record id from the particular record I'm attempting to update.
It's always a bad idea to hardcode urls like that. The following
<form method="POST" action="gins/{{ $gins->id }}">
in a route like laravel/gins/ would evaluate to laravel/gins/gins/7.
Also, routes change all the time in a dynamic web application. For this reason, I'd suggest you to use Named Routes.
For example:
Route::patch('gins/{gin}', 'PostsController#update')
->middleware('auth')
->name('posts.update');
and then change your form action to this:
<form method="POST" action="{{ route('posts.update', ['gin' => $gins->id]) }}">
I would also clean up your update() method a bit.
public function update(Request $request, $id)
{
$gins = \App\Gins::findOrFail($id);
$gins->gin = request('gin');
$gins->size = request('size');
$gins->price = request('price');
$gins->save();
// change this to a named route as well
return redirect('gins');
// or if you just want to return back to the previous page, you can do
// return back();
}

move() function not working in laravel 5.2 while editing/updating pictures

I have a founder page where the user can upload name, information and image of the founder.
In my view when I edit pictures and upload a new one, the name of the pictures gets stored in the database but the image is not being uploaded. There must be some problem in my controller but i can't seem to find out what. Any help would be appreciated.
Below are my model, controller and view.
Founder Model
class Founder extends Model
{
protected $fillable = ['name','information', 'image'];
public function getImageAttribute()
{
if (! $this->attributes['image']) {
return 'noimage.jpg';
}
return $this->attributes['image'];
}
public function getCreatedAtAttribute($date)
{
return Carbon\Carbon::createFromFormat('Y-m-d H:i:s', $date)->format('Y-m-d');
}
public function getUpdatedAtAttribute($date)
{
return Carbon\Carbon::createFromFormat('Y-m-d H:i:s', $date)->format('Y-m-d');
}
Founder Controller
public function update(Request $request, $id)
{
$founder = Founder::find($id);
$input = $request->all();
if($file=$request->file('image'))
{
$name = $file->getClientOriginalName();
$file->move('/images/', $name);
$input['image']= $name;
}
$founder->update($request->all());
return redirect()->route('founder.view');
}
Founder View Edit Form
<form class="form-horizontal" action="/founders/{{$founder->id}}" method="POST">
{{csrf_field()}}
<input type="hidden" name="_method" value="PUT">
<div class="form-group">
<label class="col-md-12">Name</label>
<div class="col-md-12">
<input type="text" name="name" class="form-control" value="{{$founder->name}}">
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label class="col-md-12">Information</label>
<div class="col-md-12">
<textarea class="form-control" name="information" rows="3" value="{{$founder->information}}">{{$founder->information}}</textarea>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label class="col-md-12">Change Image</label>
<div class="col-md-12">
<input type="file" name="image" class="form-control" value="{{$founder->image}}">
</div>
</div>
<button type="submit" name="submit" class="btn btn-success waves-effect waves-light m-r-10">Submit</button>
</form>
Try to use rename:
rename ('current/path/to/foo', 'new/path/to/foo');
Documentation: http://php.net/rename
UPDATE:
Or use variable $destinationPath:
$file->move($destinationPath, $chooseYourFileName);
Use This Method This Will Work 100%
if($request->hasFile('filename')){
$file = $request->filename;
$file_new_name = $file->move("upload/posts/", $file->getClientOriginalName());
$post->filename = $file_new_names;
}
Remember filename is your < img name="filename" >
