Proper formatting of a JSON and multiplepart Guzzle post request - laravel

Question

I have two different Guzzle post requests that I am trying to merge (solely because they basically do a united job and should be performed together).
Initially I have my donation data:
'donation' => [
'web_id' => $donation->web_id,
'amount' => $donation->amount,
'type' => $donation->type,
'date' => $donation->date->format('Y-m-d'),
'collection_id' => NULL,
'status_id' => $donation->status_id,
],
And then I have my files that go with it, which are basically two different PDFs that are enabled or disabled for donors, sometimes they have both. I know the multipart would look something like below, but I'm not sure.
foreach ($uploadDocs as $doc) {
'multipart' => [
[
'name' => 'donation_id',
'contents' => $donation->web_id,
],
[
'name' => 'type_id',
'contents' => $doc->type_id',
],
[
'name' => 'file',
'contents' => fopen($doc->path, 'r'),
'headers' => ['Content-Type' => 'application/pdf'],
],
],
}
Since I've usually only handled one file at a time and I'm not sure how to merge the first block of code with the second for an appropriate Guzzle post request.

You can try this:
$donationData = [
'web_id' => $donation->web_id,
'amount' => $donation->amount,
'type' => $donation->type,
'date' => $donation->date->format('Y-m-d'),
'collection_id' => NULL,
'status_id' => $donation->status_id,
];
$multipart = [];
foreach ($uploadDocs as $doc) {
$multipart[] = [
[
'name' => 'donation_id',
'contents' => $donation->web_id,
],
[
'name' => 'type_id',
'contents' => $doc->type_id,
],
[
'name' => 'file',
'contents' => fopen($doc->path, 'r'),
'headers' => ['Content-Type' => 'application/pdf'],
],
];
}
Than perform your request:
$r = $client->request('POST', 'http://example.com', [
'body' => $donationData,
'multipart' => $multipart,
]);
