I'm currently working on a homepage where I am showing the 'latest hauls' and 'latest finds' they are both separate models ofcourse.
Currently I am only showing the 5 latest hauls since I use the HaulController#getWelcome Controller so I can access $haul->title etc.
How would I be able to also access $finds->title?
Thanks for the help!
You can share a model to a view by using it inside controller function -
View::share('subadmin', App\Models\SubAdmin::class);
You can call the model in your view like
{{ \App\Model::function() }}
So you can have {{ App\Model::orderBy('created_at', 'desc')->limit(5)->get() }}
You have a couple of options.
Option 1: A combined model and one view.
To do this create a new ViewModel and have LatestHauls and LatestFinds as properties on this model. You could set these properties in the controller.
On your view simply navigate down the viewmodel to the appropriate properties.
Option 2: Extend the above solution to use partial views. Create a partial view for each model. On the parent view call each partial view. This might be considered a better solution but option 1 will get you started.

In Symfony I am using widget-like behaviour by calling controller method from twig
{{ render(controller(
'App\\Controller\\ArticleController::recentArticles',
{ 'max': 3 }
)) }}
It does the logic and returns another twig template, which is embeded here.
How in the Laravel do people solve this? I need this for displaying menu, responsive menu, product lists, breadcrumbs etc.
I have read about View composers and studied the documentation - but there's mentioned only how you can inject some variables into the view.
The same with using #inject() in blade.
But I want standalone widget (with own logic, data fetching...) with custom blade template embeded/inserted in any place I call them from.
Thanks for an advice.
Btw. It doesn't need to be Controller that I call, it could be a Service object. But the point is the same. I was personally calling these objects like _WidgetController (beginning with underscore - to tell me, they are not fully qualified views, but components/widgets). But I placed them into my Controllers folder.
in my Laravel project i have many views, and a partial menu in the top for all views.
When i set a variable in blade i return it inside a specific view with
return view ('view',compact('variable'))
and i set my root like that :
Route::get('/',['uses'=>'Controller#FunctionX']);
But what i need now is to set and return a variable into my partiable menu, so it could be visible for all views.
how can we do that please ?
according to the official documentation. You can pass data into all vies using Composer views. What you need to do is go to App\Providers\AppServiceProvider. And just do your query.
$data=DB::table('data')->first();
And then you need to return
View::share('data', $data);
And that's all. You can now use {{$data->id}} in all your views. Don't forget to include
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\View;

I want to include a view like so: #include(user.myview), but within this view I need UserController logic. So I thought about calling a route: #include( route('user.route') ) which calls a Controllerfunction and returns the view but that isn't working. Any Ideas how to deal with this problem?
You need to create view composer and use it to get the data.
View composers are callbacks or class methods that are called when a view is rendered. If you have data that you want to be bound to a view each time that view is rendered, a view composer can help you organize that logic into a single location.
Simply add a link in you view and include it in your desired location.
Link will have a route.
On clicking the link, controller method can be called. e.g. show_link.blade.php
In your show_link.blade.php view:
<a href= {{route('route-name')}} > Click here</a>.
This route will call a method via .
Route::get('/call/method', 'controller#your_method_name')->name('route-name');
In controller, method your_method_name that will look like this:
public function your_method_name()
{
return "show what you want to";
}
I'm still learning Laravel and I'm working on a small project to help me understand better. In the project, I am in need of a global array, so that I may display it or its attributes on every view rendered. sort of on a notification bar, so that each page the user visits, he/she can see the number of notifications (which have been fetched in the background and are stored in the array).
I have done some research, and realized that I have to fetch and compile the array in a view composer I think. But everywhere I go, I cant seem to understand how to make a view composer.
I need to fetch the relevant rows from the database table, and make the resulting array available to each view rendered (I'm thinking attaching it somehow to my layouts/default.blade.php file.). Please help, any and all advice is greatly appreciated:)
You can now inject services on your view

You have to use Sub-Views of laravel blade. I guess your functionality is like a sidebar or like a top bar which will be rendered at every page.
//Your Controller pass data
class YOUR_CONTROLLER extends Controller {
public function index()
{
$data = YOUR_DATA;
return view('YOUR_VIEW_FILE', get_defined_vars());
}
}
//In Your View File
#extends('LAYOUTS_FILE')
#section('YOUR_SECTION')
#include('YOUR_SUB_VIEW_FOR_NOTIFICATION')//You need not pass any data passed all data will be available to this sub view.
#endsection
In your sub view
//Do what ever you want looping logic rendering HTML etc.
//In your layout file just yield or render the section that's it
#yield('YOUR_SECTION')

I have a main.blade.php which contains my layout. As part of this layout, I need to show the categories from the database.
I would like to avoid doing the Eloquent call in every single controller.
How can I retrieve all categories to show on main.blade.php regardless of the controller?
You can do it in the base controller or the view layout you have.
In the view it would be:
#foreach(Category::all() as $category
and for a base controller, it would be something like:
$this->layout->categories = Category::all();
Hope this helps!

It would be great to call single action in template right? :)
You can check this package (check out layout facade section). Hope it helps.
