So, i have a mongo database filled(21k enteries) with columns like action(there are 5 different actions) id, time, etc.
I need to get the name of every action, and how many times does this action occur. For example: USERPROPERTY_CHANGED - 755
I have tried pretty much everything in here Laravel Eloquent groupBy() AND also return count of each group
Then i tried to make anothe collection, where i input the fields one, by one, and then fetch them, but my migration looks like this:
<?php
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
class actionPopularity extends Migration
{
public function up()
{
Schema::create('actionPopularity', function (Blueprint
$collection) {
$collection->Increments('id');
$collection->string('action');
$collection->integer('count');
});
}
public function down()
{
Schema::dropIfExists('actionPopularity');
}
}
But the collection that this generated had only one field - id.
heres something that kind of works (it shows that it can work with the database)
Controller:
public function database_test()
{
$actions = Action::groupBy('action')->get();
return view('database_test',compact('actions'));
}
view:
{{$actions}}
output:
[{"_id":
{"action":"OBJECT_INSERT"},"action":"OBJECT_INSERT"},
{"_id":
{"action":"OBJECT_MODIFY"},"action":"OBJECT_MODIFY"},
{"_id":
{"action":"null"},"action":"null"},{"_id":
{"action":"USERPROPERTY_CHANGED"},"action":"USERPROPERTY_CHANGED"},
{"_id":{"action":"OBJECT_DELETE"},"action":"OBJECT_DELETE"}]
ultimately i want to get two arrays, one with action names, and another one with the amount of times that this action has been called, to put it in a chart.

I have a table named food_portion like the following:
id|food_id|name|gram_weight
1|102030|slice|183
2|102030|pie|183
3|102031|waffle|35
....
The table is complete, But some global portions are missing like gram/oz..
I wanted to write a query to add records for this portions but I'm thinking that its not a good choice because this portions have same value for all the foods.
*|*|gr|1 (6000 records like this)
*|*|oz|28 (and another 6000 like this)
So I'm looking for a way to modify my model (food_portion) so every time I execute some query using model get the the above records without having them physically in the database table, So my queries wouldn't be slow for no reason.
How can I do this. I tried to do this using global scope but I failed:
protected static function booted()
{
static::addGlobalScope('global_portions', function (Builder $builder) {
$builder->orWhere( function($query)
{
//$query->where("food_id","*")->where("name","gr") ???
// what should I write here?
});
});
}
Bottom line is I want to prevent record repetition for every food.
I want to add two specific records to every query result.
Thanks in advance
I think you are very close, check this:
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB;
protected static function booted()
{
static::addGlobalScope('global_portions', function (\Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Builder $builder) {
$builder->union(DB::query()->select([
DB::raw("\"*\" AS id"),
DB::raw("\"*\" AS food_id"),
DB::raw("\"gr\" AS name"),
DB::raw("\"1\" AS gram_weight"),
]));
});
}
This is to add one record. To add more, simply chain more union functions, or edit the query inside.
Note: For Laravel 6.x use "boot" instead of "booted", and add a line parent::boot(); before addGlobalScope
I have an Attachment model which uses the morphs table and morphTo function. I have several models but the main ones include Client, Job, Project and Notes (which is also polymorphic) which can contain several Attachments.
A client is the top-level model. A Client has many Jobs. A Job has many Projects.
I am struggling with a single way to return all attachments of a client, including attachments of each Job, Project, and notes of each job/project under a client.
I currently am running several foreach loops and have a working way, but the queries on the page load range from 60-100 depending on the amount of jobs/projects/notes for each client. I run through each job to check if it has an attachment, if so, I loop through them. Then, I run through $job->notes->attachments and display those. From there, I dive into another foreach loop pulling all the job's projects, pulling the attachments from each project and then pulling all the notes and looping through that.
Is there a way within Laravel to get all of the Attachments that are somehow attached to a single Client without looping through the way I have? If not, is there a way I can optimize my loops so I don't have to request the attachments for each job/job's notes/project/project's notes?
I do this all the time. You just need a way to
"...get all of the Attachments that are somehow attached to a single
Client without looping through..."
You must consider custom joins, using Laravel Eloquent:
//client_id input here
$client_id = 10;
$att_from_client = Attachment::join('note', function ($join) {
$join->on('note.id', '=', 'attachment.object_id')
->where('attachment.object_type', 'App\\Note');
})
->join('project', 'project.id', '=', 'note.project_id')
->join('job', 'job.id', '=', 'project.job_id')
->join('client', 'client.id', '=', 'job.client_id')
->where('client.id', $client_id)
->get();
dd($att_from_client);
My advice is to use eloquent-has-many-deep. As example of you can do with that library you can look at the code of three models related with many to many:
class Role extends Model
{
public function users()
{
return $this->belongsToMany('App\Models\User')->withTimestamps();
}
public function permissions()
{
return $this->belongsToMany('App\Models\Permission')->withTimestamps();
}
}
class Permission extends Model
{
use \Staudenmeir\EloquentHasManyDeep\HasRelationships;
public function roles()
{
return $this->belongsToMany('App\Models\Role')->withTimestamps();
}
public function users()
{
return $this->hasManyDeep('App\Models\User', ['permission_role', 'App\Models\Role', 'role_user']);
}
}
class User extends Authenticatable
{
use \Staudenmeir\EloquentHasManyDeep\HasRelationships;
public function roles()
{
return $this->belongsToMany('App\Models\Role')->withTimestamps();
}
public function permissions()
{
return $this->hasManyDeep('App\Models\Permission', ['role_user', 'App\Models\Role', 'permission_role']);
}
}
With these relationships in place and 5 tables involved: users, role_user, roles, permission_role and permissions you can retrieve all the permissions of a User model with a call to $user->permissions, that resolves to only one query with all the joins needed.
I'm trying to create a function in our Laravel 5.8 app that would add multiple records to a pivot table. At present we have the following setup;
Users
Training Courses
Users Training Courses (pivot table for the above relationships, with a few extra fields)
I want to be able to show all users in the database, then check their name, pick a training course and hit "Add" and it'll create a record in the pivot table for each user that was selected.
I can't figure out where to start with this - it seems like I need to have a "for each user selected, run the store function" loop in the controller, but I have no idea where to start.
I wasn't sure if there was an easy way to do this in eloquent or not. Is there a simple way to do this?
Eloquent does this automatically if you set up the relationships correctly and you don't have to worry about pivot tables.
class Users
{
public function trainingCourses()
{
return $this->hasMany(TrainingCourses::class);
}
}
class TrainingCourses
{
public function user()
{
return $this->belongsTo(User::class);
}
}
Then you can use the save() method to create the relationship. But I find it better to wrap this function inside a helper method that you can use throughout your code:
class Users
{
...
public function assignTrainingCourse(TrainingCourse $trainingCourse)
{
return $this->trainingCourses()->save($trainingCourse);
}
}
In your code, you could then do something as simple as this:
$user = User::find(1);
$trainingCourse = TrainingCourse::find(1);
$user->assignTrainingCourse($trainingCourse);
Building on this, suppose you have the following route to assign a training course, where it expects a trainingcourse_id in the request:
Route::post('/users/{user}/trainingcourses', 'UserTrainingCoursesController#store');
Thanks to route model binding, Laravel can inference the parent model (user) from the URL, and your controller might look like this:
// UserTrainingCoursesController.php
public function store(User $user)
{
$trainingCourse = TrainingCourse::find(request()->input('trainingcourse_id'));
$user->assignTrainingCourse($trainingCourse);
return back();
}
Of course, you'll want to put some validation in here, but this should get you started.
I want to implement page view counter in my app. What I've done so far is using this method :
public function showpost($titleslug) {
$post = Post::where('titleslug','=',$titleslug)->firstOrFail();
$viewed = Session::get('viewed_post', []);
if (!in_array($post->id, $viewed)) {
$post->increment('views');
Session::push('viewed_post', $post->id);
}
return view('posts/show', compact('post', $post));
}
I retrieve the popular posts list like this :
$popular_posts = Post::orderBy('views', 'desc')->take(10)->get();
However, I'd like to know if there are any better ways to do this ? And with my current method, can I get a list of most viewed posts in the past 24 hours ? That's all and thanks!
As quoted in # milo526's comment, you can record all hits to your pages in a unique way instead of an increment. With this you have many possibilities to search for access information, including the listing of the posts sorted by most viewed.
Create a table to save your view records:
Schema::create("posts_views", function(Blueprint $table)
{
$table->engine = "InnoDB";
$table->increments("id");
$table->increments("id_post");
$table->string("titleslug");
$table->string("url");
$table->string("session_id");
$table->string("user_id");
$table->string("ip");
$table->string("agent");
$table->timestamps();
});
Then, create the corresponding model:
<?php namespace App\Models;
class PostsViews extends \Eloquent {
protected $table = 'posts_views';
public static function createViewLog($post) {
$postsViews= new PostsViews();
$postsViews->id_post = $post->id;
$postsViews->titleslug = $post->titleslug;
$postsViews->url = \Request::url();
$postsViews->session_id = \Request::getSession()->getId();
$postsViews->user_id = \Auth::user()->id;
$postsViews->ip = \Request::getClientIp();
$postsViews->agent = \Request::header('User-Agent');
$postsViews->save();
}
}
Finally, your method:
public function showpost($titleslug)
{
$post = PostsViews::where('titleslug', '=' ,$titleslug)->firstOrFail();
PostsViews::createViewLog($post);
//Rest of method...
}
To search the most viewed posts in the last 24 hours:
$posts = Posts::join("posts_views", "posts_views.id_post", "=", "posts.id")
->where("created_at", ">=", date("Y-m-d H:i:s", strtotime('-24 hours', time())))
->groupBy("posts.id")
->orderBy(DB::raw('COUNT(posts.id)', 'desc'))
->get(array(DB::raw('COUNT(posts.id) as total_views'), 'posts.*'));
Note that in PostsViews, you have data that can help further filter your listing, such as the session id, in case you do not want to consider hits from the same session.
You may need to adapt some aspects of this solution to your final code.
2020 Update (2)/ With Eloquent Relationships for Laravel 6
If you don't want to add a package to your application. I have developed the following solution based on "Jean Marcos" and "Learner" contribution to the question and my own research.
All credit goes to "Jean Marcos" and "Learner", I felt like I should do the same as Learner and update the code in a way the would be beneficial to others.
First of all, make sure you have a sessions table in the database. Otherwise, follow the steps in Laravel documentations to do so: HTTP Session
Make sure that the sessions are stored in the table. If not, make sure to change the SESSION_DRIVER variable at the .env set to 'database' not 'file' and do composer dump-autoload afterwards.
After that, you are all set to go. You can start by running the following console command:
php artisan make:model PostView -m
This will generate both the model and migration files.
Inside of the migration file put the following Schema. Be cautious with the columns names. For example, my posts table have the "slug" column title name instead of the "titleslug" which was mentioned in the question.
Schema::create('post_views', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments("id");
$table->unsignedInteger("post_id");
$table->string("titleslug");
$table->string("url");
$table->string("session_id");
$table->unsignedInteger('user_id')->nullable();
$table->string("ip");
$table->string("agent");
$table->timestamps();
});
Then put the following code inside the PostView model file.
<?php
namespace App;
use App\Post;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class PostView extends Model
{
public function postView()
{
return $this->belongsTo(Post::class);
}
public static function createViewLog($post) {
$postViews= new PostView();
$postViews->post_id = $post->id;
$postViews->slug = $post->slug;
$postViews->url = request()->url();
$postViews->session_id = request()->getSession()->getId();
$postViews->user_id = (auth()->check())?auth()->id():null;
$postViews->ip = request()->ip();
$postViews->agent = request()->header('User-Agent');
$postViews->save();
}
}
Now inside the Post model write the following code. This to create the relation between the posts table and the post_views table.
use App\PostView;
public function postView()
{
return $this->hasMany(PostView::class);
}
In the same Post model you should put the following code. If the user is not logged in the the code will test the IP match. Otherwise, it will test both the session ID and the user ID as each user might have multiple sessions.
public function showPost()
{
if(auth()->id()==null){
return $this->postView()
->where('ip', '=', request()->ip())->exists();
}
return $this->postView()
->where(function($postViewsQuery) { $postViewsQuery
->where('session_id', '=', request()->getSession()->getId())
->orWhere('user_id', '=', (auth()->check()));})->exists();
}
You are ready now to run the migration.
php artisan migrate
When the user ask for the post. The following function should be targeted inside the PostController file:
use App\PostView;
public function show(Post $post)
{
//Some bits from the following query ("category", "user") are made for my own application, but I felt like leaving it for inspiration.
$post = Post::with('category', 'user')->withCount('favorites')->find($post->id);
if($post->showPost()){// this will test if the user viwed the post or not
return $post;
}
$post->increment('views');//I have a separate column for views in the post table. This will increment the views column in the posts table.
PostView::createViewLog($post);
return $post;
}
As I have a separate column for views in the post table. To search the most viewed posts in the last 24 hours you write this code in the controller. Remove paginate if you don't have pagination:
public function mostViwedPosts()
{
return Posts::with('user')->where('created_at','>=', now()->subdays(1))->orderBy('views', 'desc')->latest()->paginate(5);
}
I hope this would help/save someones time.
2020 Update
First of all, thanks a lot "Jean Marcos" for his awesome answer. All credit goes to him, I am just pasting a slightly modified answer combining my knowledge of Laravel as well.
Create a table to save your view records and name it with snake_case plural: post_views
Schema::create("post_views", function(Blueprint $table)
{
$table->engine = "InnoDB";//this is basically optional as you are not using foreign key relationship so you could go with MyISAM as well
$table->increments("id");
//please note to use integer NOT increments as "Jean Marcos' answer" because it will throw error "Incorrect table definition; there can be only one auto column and it must be defined as a key" when running migration.
$table->unsignedInteger("post_id");//note that the Laravel way of defining foreign keys is "table-singular-name_id", so it's preferable to use that
$table->string("titleslug");
$table->string("url");
$table->string("session_id");
$table->unsignedInteger('user_id')->nullable();//here note to make it nullable if your page is accessible publically as well not only by logged in users. Also its more appropriate to have "unsignedInteger" type instead of "string" type as mentioned in Jean Marcos' answer because user_id will save same data as id field of users table which in most cases will be an auto incremented id.
$table->string("ip");
$table->string("agent");
$table->timestamps();
});
Then, create the corresponding model. Please note to create "PascalCase" model name and singular form of the table so it should be like: PostView
<?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class PostView extends Model
{
public static function createViewLog($post) {
$postViews= new PostView();
$postViews->listing_id = $post->id;
$postViews->url = \Request::url();
$postViews->session_id = \Request::getSession()->getId();
$postViews->user_id = (\Auth::check())?\Auth::id():null; //this check will either put the user id or null, no need to use \Auth()->user()->id as we have an inbuild function to get auth id
$postViews->ip = \Request::getClientIp();
$postViews->agent = \Request::header('User-Agent');
$postViews->save();//please note to save it at lease, very important
}
}
Then run the migration to generate this table
php artisan migrate
Finally, your method:
public function showpost($titleslug)
{
$post = PostView::where('titleslug', '=' ,$titleslug)->firstOrFail();
\App\PostView::createViewLog($post);//or add `use App\PostView;` in beginning of the file in order to use only `PostView` here
//Rest of method...
}
To search the most viewed posts in the last 24 hours:
$posts = Posts::join("post_views", "post_views.id_post", "=", "posts.id")
->where("created_at", ">=", date("Y-m-d H:i:s", strtotime('-24 hours', time())))
->groupBy("posts.id")
->orderBy(DB::raw('COUNT(posts.id)'), 'desc')//here its very minute mistake of a paranthesis in Jean Marcos' answer, which results ASC ordering instead of DESC so be careful with this line
->get([DB::raw('COUNT(posts.id) as total_views'), 'posts.*']);
Note that in PostView, you have data that can help further filter your listing, such as the session id, in case you do not want to consider hits from the same session.
You may need to adapt some aspects of this solution to your final code.
So those were few modifications I wanted to point out, also you might want to put an additional column client_internet_ip in which you can store \Request::ip() which can be used as a filter as well if required.
I hope it helps
Eloquent Viewable package can be used for this purpose. It provides more flexible ways to do stuff like this(counting page views).
Note:The Eloquent Viewable package requires PHP 7+ and Laravel 5.5+.
Make Model viewable:
Just add the Viewable trait to the model definition like:
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use CyrildeWit\EloquentViewable\Viewable;
class Post extends Model
{
use Viewable;
// ...
}
Then in the controller:
public function show(Post $post)
{
$post->addView();
return view('blog.post', compact('post'));
}
After that you can do stuff like this:(see package installation guide for more details)
// Get the total number of views
$post->getViews();
// Get the total number of views since the given date
$post->getViews(Period::since(Carbon::parse('2014-02-23 00:00:00')));
// Get the total number of views between the given date range
$post->getViews(Period::create(Carbon::parse('2014-00-00 00:00:00'), Carbon::parse('2016-00-00 00:00:00')));
// Get the total number of views in the past 6 weeks (from today)
$post->getViews(Period::pastWeeks(6));
// Get the total number of views in the past 2 hours (from now)
$post->getViews(Period::subHours(2));
// Store a new view in the database
$post->addView();
Implements same kind of idea as in the accepted answer, but provides more features and flexibilities.
First of all thanks to user33192 for sharing the eloquent viewable. Just want to make it clearer for others after looking at the docs. Look at the docs to install the package.
Do this in your Post Model:
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use CyrildeWit\EloquentViewable\InteractsWithViews;
use CyrildeWit\EloquentViewable\Viewable;
class Post extends Model implements Viewable
{
use InteractsWithViews;
// ...
}
In your posts controller, use the record method to save a view;
public function show($slug)
{
$post = Post::where('slug',$slug)->first();
views($post)->record();
return view('posts.show',compact('post'));
}
In your views you can return the views (mine is posts.show) as you want. Check the document for more. I will just the total views of a post.
<button class="btn btn-primary">
{{ views($post)->count() }} <i class="fa fa-eye"></i>
</button>
I have to meke models, controllers and views for 12 tables. They have all the same structure id, name, order.
I was thinking and maybe using:
Controller
index($model)
$model::all()
return View::make(all_tables,compact('model'))
edit($model,$id)... and so on.
But and don't know if there's a way for using only one model.
Did anybody do anything like this?
Any idea?
Thanks
Although each model has the same table structure, what you're trying to achieve would not be advisable as you'd lose a lot of the fluent capabilities of Laravel's Eloquent ORM.
Regarding the controller, this would work:
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use App\Http\Requests;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
class GenericModelController extends Controller
{
public function loadModelById($model, $id)
{
$instance = \App::make('App\\' . ucfirst($model));
return $instance->find($id);
}
}
You'll need the following route:
Route::get('show/{model}/{id}', 'GenericModelController#loadModelById');
Example, to load a user with an id of 1:
http://www.yourdomain.com/show/user/1
Edit: I just saw that you're using Laravel 4, so the syntax for defining a route will be a little different I believe but the general concept will still work. Testing in Laravel 5 and works perfectly.
You should get get some idea from here.Please use the link below.
https://scotch.io/tutorials/a-guide-to-using-eloquent-orm-in-laravel
// app/models/Bear.php
class Bear extends Eloquent {
// MASS ASSIGNMENT -------------------------------------------------------
// define which attributes are mass assignable (for security)
// we only want these 3 attributes able to be filled
protected $fillable = array('name', 'type', 'danger_level');
// DEFINE RELATIONSHIPS --------------------------------------------------
// each bear HAS one fish to eat
public function fish() {
return $this->hasOne('Fish'); // this matches the Eloquent model
}
// each bear climbs many trees
public function trees() {
return $this->hasMany('Tree');
}
// each bear BELONGS to many picnic
// define our pivot table also
public function picnics() {
return $this->belongsToMany('Picnic', 'bears_picnics', 'bear_id', 'picnic_id');
}
}
I find a simple way.
Only one model, one controller and one view(index,edit, etc) too.
A single table with
id, name of list, value (name to appears in the list)
Yo pass can pass to de view all the values per list, and for any list in the table you can create de select if it's no empty.
