I am new to laravel and I'm trying to pass a value from one controller to another controller.. In this case.. I want to pass the order_id generated in Order Controller to /pizza/create in Pizza Controller..
this is my code in OrderController
public function store()
{
$user = User::find(Auth::user()->id);
$order= new Order;
$order->user()->associate($user);
$order->status = 'unconfirmed';
$order->save();
return Redirect::to('/pizza/create')
->with('order', $order->order_id);
}
this is my code in /pizza/create in PizzaController
public function create()
{
$id = Session::get('order');
$order = Order::find($id);
return View::make('pizza.create')
->with('order', $order);
}
this somehow works.. but the value (order_id) disappears when i change views/routes..
if you want to pass a value from controller to controller use session, when you are using redirect and with method it is creating session, when you are using view and with method it is creating variable which you can use in view to display that value.
this create a session
return Redirect::to('/pizza/create')
->with('order', $order->order_id);
this statement create a variable which you can use in view
return View::make('pizza.create')
->with('order', $order);
above variable you can use in blade or view file
{{ $order }}
so in create method you need to create a session keep variable alive and available in other controllers
public function create()
{
$id = Session::get('order');
$order = Order::find($id);
Session::put('order',$id);
return View::make('pizza.create')
->with('order', $order);
}

I am trying to pass $request from a function in controller to a function in model.
THis is my controller function:
PostController.php
public function store(Request $request, post $post)
{
$post->title = $request->title;
$post->description = $request->description;
$post->save();
return redirect(route('post.index'));
}
how save data in model Post.php?
I want the controller to only be in the role of sending information. Information is sent to the model. All calculations and storage are performed in the model
Thanks
You can make it even easier. Laravel has it's own helper "request()", which can be called anywhere in your code.
So, generally, you can do this:
PostController.php
public function store()
{
$post_model = new Post;
// for queries it's better to use transactions to handle errors
\DB::beginTransaction();
try {
$post_model->postStore();
\DB::commit(); // if there was no errors, your query will be executed
} catch (\Exception $e) {
\DB::rollback(); // either it won't execute any statements and rollback your database to previous state
abort(500);
}
// you don't need any if statements anymore. If you're here, it means all data has been saved successfully
return redirect(route('post.index'));
}
Post.php
public function postStore()
{
$request = request(); //save helper result to variable, so it can be reused
$this->title = $request->title;
$this->description = $request->description;
$this->save();
}
I'll show you full best practice example for update and create:
web.php
Route::post('store/post/{post?}', 'PostController#post')->name('post.store');
yourform.blade.php - can be used for update and create
<form action='{{ route('post.store', ['post' => $post->id ?? null]))'>
<!-- some inputs here -->
<!-- some inputs here -->
</form>
PostController.php
public function update(Post $post) {
// $post - if you sent null, in this variable will be 'new Post' result
// either laravel will try to find id you provided in your view, like Post::findOrFail(1). Of course, if it can't, it'll abort(404)
// then you can call your method postStore and it'll update or create for your new post.
// anyway, I'd recommend you to do next
\DB::beginTransaction();
try {
$post->fill(request()->all())->save();
\DB::commit();
} catch (\Exception $e) {
\DB::rollback();
abort(500);
}
return redirect(route('post.index'));
}
Based on description, not sure what you want exactly but assuming you want a clean controller and model . Here is one way
Model - Post
class Post {
$fillable = array(
'title', 'description'
);
}
PostController
class PostController extend Controller {
// store function normally don't get Casted Objects as `Post`
function store(\Request $request) {
$parameters = $request->all(); // get all your request data as an array
$post = \Post::create($parameters); // create method expect an array of fields mentioned in $fillable and returns a save dinstance
// OR
$post = new \Post();
$post->fill($parameters);
}
}
I hope it helps
You need to create new model simply by instantiating it:
$post = new Post; //Post is your model
then put content in record
$post->title = $request->title;
$post->description = $request->description;
and finally save it to db later:
$post->save();
To save all data in model using create method.You need to setup Mass Assignments when using create and set columns in fillable property in model.
protected $fillable = [ 'title', 'description' ];
and then call this with input
$post = Post::create([ 'parametername' => 'parametervalue' ]);
and if request has unwanted entries like token then us except on request before passing.
$post = Post::create([ $request->except(['_token']) ]);
Hope this helps.
I find to answer my question :
pass $request to my_method in model Post.php :
PostController.php:
public function store(Request $request)
{
$post_model = new Post;
$saved = $post_model->postStore($request);
//$saved = response of my_method in model
if($saved){
return redirect(route('post.index'));
}
}
and save data in the model :
Post.php
we can return instance or boolean to the controller .
I returned bool (save method response) to controller :
public function postStore($request)
{
$this->title = $request->title;
$this->description = $request->description;
$saved = $this->save();
//save method response bool
return $saved;
}
in this way, all calculations and storage are performed in the model (best way to save data in MVC)
public function store(Request $request)
{
$book = new Song();
$book->title = $request['title'];
$book->artist = $request['artist'];
$book->rating = $request['rating'];
$book->album_id = $request['album_id'];
$result= $book->save();
}
i want to pass two variables called as repcounter and suppliers to the view to do two different task.
here is my function in controller,
public function admin()
{
$suppliers = SupplierData::all();
$repcounter= SalesRep::count();
return view('dashboard', compact('suppliers'));
}
this is how i send suppliers data. it worked fine. but i don't have an idea to send repcounter and suppliers at once.. each time i try i gave error undefined variable.
so how to send this two varibles to the dashboard.blade.php view?
You should try this:
public function admin()
{
$suppliers = SupplierData::all();
$repcounter= SalesRep::count();
return view('dashboard', compact('suppliers','repcounter'));
}
Replace:
return view('dashboard', compact('suppliers'));
With the following code:
return view('dashboard', compact('suppliers,'repcounter'));
You can pass multiple variables to the view by nesting the data you want in an array. See below code.
public function admin()
{
//create an empty array
$response = array();
//nest your data insde the array instead of creating variables
$response['suppliers'] = SupplierData::all();
$response['repcounter'] = SalesRep::count();
return view('dashboard', compact('response'));
}
Inside your View, you can access them as below
$response['suppliers']
$response['repcounter']
I am making a site in codeigniter, here is my controller, model and view:
controller:
function checking()
{
$email=$this->input->post('email');
$this->load->model('login_model');
$data['dbemail']=$this->login_model->email();// assign your value to CI variable
$this->load->view('home', $data); //passing your value to view
}
model:
public function email()
{
$query = $this->db->query("SELECT email FROM change_password");
$result = $query->result_array();
return $result;
}
view:
foreach ( $dbemail as $new_dbemail )
{
echo $new_dbemail['database_field'];//in here you can get your table header.
//Ex if your table has name field and you need to sho it you can use $new_dbemail['name']
}
but i want to get $new_dbemail['name'] in my controller, how i can get the value of $new_dbemail['name'] in controller rather than view ???
To do so... you have to fetch data into a row_array not in result_array in Model.
Controller
function checking()
{
$email=$this->input->post('email');
$this->load->model('login_model');
$data['dbemail']=$this->login_model->email();
$database_field = $data['dbemail']['database_field']; //to get result in controller
$date['database_field'] = $data['dbemail']['database_field']; //to get result in view
$this->load->view('home', $data);
}
Model
public function email()
{
$query = $this->db->query("SELECT email FROM change_password");
return $query->row_array();
}
View
<p> Database Field value : <?=$database_field;?></p>
You are Calling the Model In A Variable :-
$data['dbemail']=$this->login_model->email();
So in this you have the results which you are fetching from Database. Than you passing this variable data to your View.
$this->load->view('home', $data);
So you already have the value in controller which u fetched from model which is stored in $data.
You can View the Values of $data , using
echo "<pre>";
print_r($data);
and it will show what data you are receiving
Try like this...
In controller...
function checking()
{
$email=$this->input->post('email');
$this->load->model('login_model');
$dbemail=$this->login_model->email();//array containing all emails
//For each loop here for displaying emails
foreach($dbemail as $email){
$mail = $email; //assigning to variable
echo $mail."<br/>";//displaying email
}
$data['dbemail'] = $dbemail;//for passing to view
$this->load->view('home', $data); //passing your value to view
}
First you need to fetch the name from the database in the model. Change the query line:
$query = $this->db->query("SELECT name, email FROM change_password");
Then to use the name data in the controller you could try this:
function checking()
{
$email=$this->input->post('email');
$this->load->model('login_model');
$data['dbemail']=$this->login_model->email();
$name = $data['dbemail']['name']; // example usage to retrieve name in controller
$this->load->view('home', $data);
}
Now the name data is available as $name in controller.
Controller:
public function checking()
{
$email=$this->input->post('email');
$this->load->model('login_model');
$data['dbemails']=$this->login_model->email();
$this->load->view('home', $data); //passing your value to view
}
Model
public function email()
{
$this->db->select("email"); // the row of the table you want to select.
$this->db->get('change_password'); //table name. you can still use your query, its just much neat when you use a specific query builder.
$result = $this->result(); //giving you a result of type object
return $result;
}
View
foreach ( $dbemails as $dbemail )
{
echo $dbemail->email; // the '->' will be the identifier of which row you want to get or display, i assume its email beacause you specify it in the model.
}
Hope this what your looking for.
Top of my controller i have added:
use Auth;
function in my controller
public function details($id)
{
if(Auth::check())
{
$user = Auth::user();
$product = Product::find($id);
$cart->product_id = $product->id;
$cart->category_id = $product->category_id;
$cart->user_id = $user->id;
dd($cart->user_id); //check if its storing the value
}
else {
return redirect()->route('login');
}
}
when I run this i get error:
Creating default object from empty value
If I remove the $user->id line the error goes.
I tried adding constructor also but still got same error
public function __construct() {
$this->middleware('auth');
}
dd is showing other details after it checks if user is logged in.
Is there a way to get user id of logged in user from users table that is created by default.
Thanks!
The issue is you’re calling $cart->product_id, but the $cart variable isn’t defined as far as I can see. PHP doesn’t know what to do, so because you try and assign a property to it, PHP assumes you want $cart to be a class, hence the “Creating default object from empty value” message.
Other than that, you code could be improved by using middleware to authenticate your users, and relations on your Eloquent models so you’re not manually assigning relation IDs.
Try like this,
You forgot to initials cart object
$cart = new Cart;
$cart->product_id = $product->id;
$cart->category_id = $product->category_id;
$cart->user_id = $user->id;
dd($cart->user_id); //check if its storing the value
Is there any other best way to use session_data in website.
How i set session in my project:
$sess_array = array('id' => $row->user_id,'name'=>$row->user_name,'email'=>$row->email,'condition'=>'','balance'=>$row->balance,'did_alloted'=>$row->did_alloted,'create_date'=>$row->create_date);
$this->session->set_userdata('logged_in', $sess_array);
when it comes to controller:
$data['id'] = $session_data['id'];
$data['name'] = $session_data['name'];
$data['email'] = $session_data['email'];
$data['balance']=$session_data['balance'];
$data['did_alloted']=$session_data['did_alloted'];
$data['create_date']=$session_data['create_date'];
$this->load->view('san-reception', $data);
and in my view. I use <?php echo $name ?> to get session_data.
So is there any method by which i can directly access session_data in view without including as $data.
$this->session->userdata('logged_in'); will be available directly in views and hence you just need to assigned this to a variable and then use that as array like bellow.
$userdata=$this->session->userdata('logged_in');
now variable $userdata contain all array field that you set in controller and hence you can use it as $userdata['id'], $userdata['name'] etc
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
$data['session_data']=$this->session->user_data('logged_in');
}
public function some_function(){
$data['dummy']="";
$this->load->view('someview3',$data)
}
public function some_function1(){
$data['dummy']="";
$this->load->view('someview1',$data)
}
public function some_function2(){
$data['dummy']="";
$this->load->view('someview2',$data)
}
If you assign that into the constructor then it will call by automatically whenever a function calls in the controller.
you can view it in you view page by,
print_r($session_data);
