Non-static method Yajra\Datatables\Datatables::collection() should

Answer 1

You are trying to get the first articles with its comments.
public function commentsForOneArticle($id)
{
$article = Article::fine($id);
//check if article exists to avoid errors
if ( $article ) {
return Datatables::of(Comment::where('article_id', $article->id))->make(true);
}
return "no article with id" . $id;
}
This was just an illustration. But it seems you need to understand first how Eloquent works. Watch this free Laracast https://laracasts.com/series/laravel-from-scratch-2017/episodes/7
For routes, you can define the route like this:
Route::get('comments/{article_id}', 'ArticleController#commentsForOneArticle');
And call it in Ajax like
$.ajax({url: "/comments/1",
success: function(result){
//do stuff here
},
error: function(error) {
console.log(error)
}
});
All this is just a guide and not THE solution.
Edit
To take data with the user in one go
$article = Article::with('user')->find($id);
//will include all the fields from user and article
Comments & author
To get the name of the comment author, you need to define the relationship in comment model
public function user() {
return $this->belongsTo(User::class);
}
Then get like this
if ( $article ) {
return Datatables::of(Comment::with('users')->where('article_id', $article->id))->make(true);
}
