Laravel after form post sweet alert - laravel

I am posting my inputs controller in laravel. Then recording database, after redirecting page want to show sweet alert just like this "Item has been added successfully". Is that possible ?

You can keep flash data in controller ,like this
$request->session()->flash('status', 'Item has been added successfully!');
and on view you can do this
#if (session('status'))
<script>
Swal.fire("{{ session('status') }}");
</script>
#endif

How to make alert with SweetAlert in Laravel

I would like to use SweetAlert to display my data.
I did my function
public function registration()
{
Gate::authorize('admin-level');
$url = URL::signedRoute(
'register',
now()->addMinutes(20));
return redirect('users')->with('success','$url');
}
and route that goes with it
Route::get('registration', [App\Http\Controllers\UserController::class, 'registration'])->name('registration');
The problem is with message, since I downloaded SweetAlert with composer I should probably got everything working, but then when I try to execute my class with button threw the route:
<button type="button" class="btn btn-outline-primary">{{ __('Registration link') }}</button>
#if(session('succes_message'))
<div class= "alert alert-succes">
{{session('succes_message')}}
</div>
#endif
Nothing pops up(when it should)
What might be wrong with it?
When you use ->with() it means, store items in the session for the next request.
return redirect('users')->with('success', '$url');
Here comes the question. What do you do after this?
Create a notification information or an alert (popup with SweetAlert)?
If it will be used as a notification, your code has no problem. If you want to make alert (popup with SweetAlert), your understanding is wrong.
Just because the class you are using uses the name alert, doesn't mean it make an alert with SweetAlert.
To use SweetAlert, you can add JavaScript in the header or before the </body> tag:
<script>
#if($message = session('succes_message'))
swal("{{ $message }}");
#endif
</script>
Or to use SweetAlert2 :
<script>
#if($message = session('succes_message'))
Swal.fire(
'Good job!',
'{{ $message }}',
'success'
)
#endif
</script>
If you are confused about placing the script in a specific blade view, please read my answer here.

laravel POST request not rendering

Below is the auth part of my routes.
I just added the Tags part (where I can add another tag to the DB).
the tag creation works but the creation of a new post doesn't work now (worked before).
When I "submit" a post, it doesn't redirect or submits anything and it refreshes me back to the post create form with empty fields like nothing was rendered.
I tried to play with the positions of the routing, I made the post creation work but than the same happened to the tag creation where the page was "submiting" but actually there was no submit and it didn't redirect afterwards.
Auth::routes();
Route::get('/posts', 'PostsController#index')->name('posts.index');
Route::middleware('can:isAdmin')->group(function () {
Route::get('/posts/create', 'PostsController#create')->name('posts.create');
Route::get('/posts/{post}/edit', 'PostsController#edit')->name('post.edit');
Route::put('/posts/{post}', 'PostsController#update');
Route::post('/posts', 'PostsController#store');
Route::get('/tags/create', 'TagsController#create')->name('tags.create');
Route::post('/posts', 'TagsController#store');
});
Route::get('/posts/{post}', 'PostsController#show')->name('posts.show');
thanks in advance.
At first, in given configuration you have two routes for same method / URI combination, so one of them would be unreachable:
// here the first
Route::post('/posts', 'PostsController#store');
Route::get('/tags/create', 'TagsController#create')->name('tags.create');
Route::post('/posts', 'TagsController#store'); // <-- here the second
Looks like your post form submit goes to the tags, than validation fails and it redirect you back to post create page. Do you display validation errors?
here is example - https://laravel.com/docs/5.8/validation#quick-displaying-the-validation-errors
<!-- /resources/views/post/create.blade.php -->
<h1>Create Post</h1>
#if ($errors->any())
<div class="alert alert-danger">
<ul>
#foreach ($errors->all() as $error)
<li>{{ $error }}</li>
#endforeach
</ul>
</div>
#endif
<!-- Create Post Form -->
If it refresh your page so probably it works but if it do not save your request to databse it means that your request not validate respect to table.
Use validation for understand the errors.

Displaying Error or alert message in laravel

I am new to Laravel. I want to display alert message. But i cannot display alert message once i hit url with localhost/social/alert. Please help me
Just a quick observation, which url do you intend to visit?
Is it localhost/social/alert or localhost/alert?
Also, try this
#if (session('info'))
<div class="alert alert-danger">
{{ session('info') }}
</div>
#endif
Let me know how that works out for you.
So in laravel 5.2, the errors, cookies, csrf tokens and so on are handled in the web middleware.
There are two ways to go about it.
Move your code into the web middleware
Route::group(['middleware' => 'web'], function () {
//code goes here
});
Move the classes from the web middleware in the $middlewareGroups variable in app/http/Kernel to $middleware
I prefer the first one

message with redirection in laravel

I have application where I show list of all items from specified table. Then I have in this page link to create new record in database, where it redirect me to form page. After submit the form I want to redirect back to list of items with success message like f.e."Record was inserted". How to do it in laravel? I tried something like this , but this doesnt work:
Redirect::to("Homepage#list")->to('message', 'Record was inserted')
also I tried (but also it doesnt work):
Session::flash('message', 'Record was inserted')
and in blade:
Session::get('message')
You need to update your code to
Redirect::to("Homepage#list")->with('message', 'Record was inserted');
and add the code for the flash message in your View
#if(Session::has('message'))
<div class="alert alert-success"><em> {!! session('message') !!}</em></div>
#endif

Laravel 4 - Update Div Using Ajax

I'm using Laravel 4 and am trying to update a (#articles) div with the new articles that are retrieved from an ajax request. When I inspect the page and view the Network section, I can see the POST requests being fired off and it's not showing any errors (eg, articles appear to be returned). However, unfortunately, the #articles div is not being updated with the new information. Yet, if I do a browser refresh, the new articles are displayed.
Routes.php
Route::any("/dashboard/latest_sa", [
"as" => "dashboard/latest_sa",
"uses" => "DashboardController#latest_sa"
]);
controllers/DashboardController.php
Class DashboardController extends \BaseController
{
...
protected function latest_sa()
{
if( Request::ajax() )
{
// called via ajax
$articles = Articles::orderBy('published_at', 'desc')->paginate(20);
return json_decode($articles);
}
else
{
// fresh page load
$articles = Articles::orderBy('published_at', 'desc')->paginate(20);
return $articles;
}
}
...
}
app/views/dashboard/default.blade.php
...
#section("content")
// defined in /public/js/main.js
<script type="text/javascript">
callServer();
</script>
<div class="col-xs-4 col-sm-4 col-md-4 col-lg-4">
<h4>Latest Articles</h4>
<div class="articles">
<ul>
#foreach ($articles as $article)
<li>
<img src="{{ $article->user_image }}" alt="{{ $article->article_title }}" />
{{ $article->article_title }}
<div class="details">
<span class="author">{{ $article->author_name }}</span>
<span class="created">{{ Helpers::time_ago($article->published_at) }}</span>
<span class="symbol">{{ $article->symbol_title }}</span>
</div>
</li>
#endforeach
</ul>
</div>
{{ $articles->links() }}
</div>
...
/public/js/main.js
function callServer()
{
setInterval(function(){
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "dashboard/latest_sa",
success:function(articles)
{
$(".articles").html(articles);
}
});
},5000);
}
JS is hardly my strong suit, so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here.
And, for clarity sake, the reason why I'm trying to update all of the articles in the div is so that the Helpers::time_ago method also gets called, instead of just fetching the new articles. This way, it properly shows how long ago the article was published (eg, less than a minute ago, a minute ago, a hour ago, a day ago, etc) without refreshing the page. Essentially, I'm trying to kill two birds with one stone; update the div with the most recent articles, and update the remaining article's published_at attribute using my Helpers::time_ago method. If there is a more effective / efficient way of doing this, feel free to correct me. This seems rather crude, but since it's only for personal use and will never be used for commercial purposes, it suits my needs (not that that excuses bad code).
Nonetheless, from my fairly basic understanding, the JS should be doing the following steps:
1) Fire a POST request off to the /dashboard/latest_sa route
2) Execute the DashboardController#latest_sa action
3) Return a DB collection of all $articles ordered by the latest published date, and paginated
4) Pass the $articles collection back to the JS success attribute (as articles)
5) Fire the anonymous function, with the articles collection as an argument
6) Update the corresponding inner HTML with the results from the articles collection
The logic sounds right, so I'm pretty sure this is going to be a human error (98% of the time it is, after all. lol). Hopefully, someone here will be able to see the (probably glaring) problem in the logic and point me in the right direction.
In the meantime, I'm going to keep toying around with it.
I look forward to your thoughts, ideas, and suggestions. TIA.
EDIT:
Well, I found one of the problems; the articles div is a class, and in the JS I'm referring to it as an id. I fixed that, and now after the timeInterval, the article's div is "updated" but no results are being displayed (none, zippo, nadda).
Yet, if I directly access the /dashboard/latest_sa URI I get the valid JSON response that I'm expecting. So, albeit I am closer, I am still missing something.
EDIT 2:
Okay, in the controller, I made some changes which can be seen above, where I am now doing a json_decode on the $articles, before returning them to be passed into the view. With that in place, the articles are showing back up again after the timeInterval has elapsed, however, the new articles and the published_at for the existing articles are not being updated. After reviewing Inspect -> Network, it shows that the server is responding with a 500 Internal Server Error from the ajax POST request.
Hrm... Seems like I'm going in circles. Sounds like a good time to take a break and go for a walk. ;)
EDIT 3:
Well, I modified my Helpers class and added in the following method to check if the $article is a json object.
public static function isJson($string)
{
json_decode($string);
return (json_last_error() == JSON_ERROR_NONE);
}
app/views/dashboard/index.blade.php
#foreach ($articles as $article)
<?php
if( Helpers::isJson($article) )
{
$article = json_decode($article);
// dd($article) // when uncommented it returns a valid PHP object
}
?>
<!-- Iterate over the article object and output the data as shown above... -->
#endforeach
As you can see, (for the time being) inside of my view's foreach($articles as $article), I run Helpers::isJson($article) as a test and decode the object if it is json. This has enabled me to get passed the 500 Internal Server Error message, populate the articles div with the results on the initial load, and after the ajax POST request is fired off, I'm getting back a server response of 200 OK according to Inspect -> Network. However, after it updates the div, it doesn't show any articles.
Around, and around I go... I think it's time I take that break I keep murmuring about. ;)
Any thoughts, suggestions and / or ideas are greatly welcomed and appreciated.
At first, you should know that, when you return a collection from the controller/route, the response automatically turns in to a json response so, you don't need to use json_decode() and it won't work, instead, you may try something like this (from your controller for ajax):
$articles = Articles::orderBy('published_at', 'desc')->paginate(20);
return View::make('defaultAjax')->with('articles', $articles);
Since building the HTML in the client side using the json data received from server side would be tough for you so, you may return HTML from the server with the generated view instead of json, so you may try something like this in your success handler:
success:function(articles) {
$(".articles").html(articles);
}
Now create a view for ajax response without extending the template like this:
//defaultAjax.blade.php used in the controller for ajax response
<ul>
#foreach ($articles as $article)
<li>
<img src="{{ $article->user_image }}" alt="{{ $article->article_title }}" />
{{ $article->article_title }}
<div class="details">
<span class="author">{{ $article->author_name }}</span>
<span class="created">{{ Helpers::time_ago($article->published_at) }}</span>
<span class="symbol">{{ $article->symbol_title }}</span>
</div>
</li>
#endforeach
</ul>
{{ $articles->links() }}
Notice, there is no #extendds() or #section(), just plain partial view, so it'll be rendered without the template and you can insert the ul inside the .articles div. That's it.
$("#articles").html(articles); ->> $(".articles").html(articles);
