By using codeigneiter, I want to connect one controller and one model with another database.
Is it possible?
I am following this post Codeigniter - I am looking to use/connect to a different database for one of my controllers and one model, but I'm not getting any result.
Use CodeIgniter documentation for Connecting to Multiple Databases
http://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/database/connecting.html
Or try it Codeigniter - multiple database connections

I'm new to laravel backpack so what did is created a CRUD of title and description. And everything in admin panel works fine, but now I need to get that data to another blade view file through a controller like in a vanilla laravel but I cant seem to find how to do it.
If I understand your question correctly, there's absolutely NOTHING special you need to do - just do it "the normal Laravel way", by using your Model to query the database. It's usually something like Career::all() or Career::find($id) or Career::where('something', $value)->get(), depending on what you need to fetch from the database.
That's because Backpack uses your existing Eloquent Models, or creates the models if you don't have them already (usually in app\Models). So whenever you create/edit/delete an entry using the Backpack interface (aka CRUD), what Backpack does is use that Model to interact with the database. If you want to interact with the database, you should do the same thing - use the Model. That's the expected and recommended way of doing things in Laravel. To have Models for all your major database tables and do most (or all) of your interactions with the database using the Eloquent Models.
You can use view like this:
view('crud::show');
list, create etc.
all available files, you can find here: vendor/backpack/crud/src/resources/views/crud
If you want to override the template, please copy vendor template to your project
vendor/backpack/crud/src/resources/views/crud/show.blade.php > resources/views/vendor/backpack/crud/show.blade.php
I have two different websites one in Cakephp 2.6 Framework and another in Laravel 8x Framework.
I have two different databases but i want to uses my Cakephp site's database users table for login/registration for both sites, how to integrate this solution in my frameworks.
Thanks in advance!
According to my understanding: It doesn't related to frameworks, instead it is a matter of business logic and can be handled with two steps.
step 1 => Add a "system_code/website_code" column in the users table.
step 2 => Add additional check for system_code along with login credentials in your code base of both websites.
I've developed an app which fetches data from an API based on Laravel 5.5. The marketing landingpage of the app is based on Craft CMS Version 3. The marketing website and the API and the databases of both systems are running on the same server.
I want to generate landingpages for each row of table X of the Laravel database.
www.website.com/awesome-landingpage-about-{slug}
What is the best approach to realize this?
I don't want to fetch the data directly from Laravel's database
I don't want to synchronize the Craft CMS database with the Laravel (add/remove the rows from the laravel's database as entries to Craft)
It would be awesome to be able to have an entry-type "Landingpage" where we can optionally create a landingpage, referencing to an ID of the laravel table and add additional content for the landingpages.
Would be a JSON-API from Laravel to Craft CMS Plugin a good performant idea?
One option would be to use a Dynamic Route and just fetch the data from 127.0.0.1 (because same server) from the template file? Or is there a smarter way in Craft CMS?
Let's start of by:
"I don't want to fetch the data directly from Laravel's database"
I'm assuming you don't want to write code in CraftCMS to access another project's database. Good. IF you plan on having them do seperate jobs and use Laravel API for fetching data alone, let it handle it's own database.
"I don't want to synchronize the Craft CMS database with the Laravel (add/remove the rows from the laravel's database as entries to Craft)"
So, this is my question:
You want to be able to create landing pages based of Laravel's rows alone or based of Laravel's database row's and CraftCMS's?
It all comes down to how well you want to abstract both frameworks.
I would probably tell laravel to accept requests from authenticated user (a CraftCMS User) or from localhosts (from within the machine alone) and I'd create endpoints to add/remove/edit/get data at my disposal. I'd then fetch rows from Laravel and combine with my own (assume I'm the CMS).
Even in an intranet network, the request to tell laravel to access the database is longer than to access the database from CraftCMS, so you should expect a dependency between the two projects.
For point 3, you'll have to store information on each database about something. On CraftCMS's to store at least the ID's it's going to request to laravel and laravel will have to get an endpoint where it can insert new stuff, if you're planning on having additional content there.
I'm not entirely sure if I got the idea you're trying to show when you say "add additional content for the landing pages" but I'd try to keep it simple and abstract it's uses, Laravel to store this 'information' that the CMS shouldn't handle in the first place (or you can work out some extra tables and import them to the other database).
Impact performance? Depends on the ammount of data you've got
I am making a web app on Laravel 5.3 which is frontend app. I am managing data from a Backend App. I have already made models and migrations in the frontend app and not in the backend app. So how should I use same database, models and migrations for both. Please help.
You can just create the models in the backend app and they will still work.
If you are using Artisan:
php artisan make:model ModelName
Migration files can be a little more tricky, I would suggest just managing all of this through your frontend app for consistency and then creating the models you need in the backend app.
You didn't mention if your backend app is also using Laravel.
Either way, I think your best approach would be to structure the backend app as an API. Then it would contain the database migrations and models. The back end would be the one to connect directly with the database. The front end would then fetch the data from the back end API and display them. The front end app could then have its own models too (but not database models).
There are arguments to support both using an API on the front-end app to access the backend or just recreating the models on each system. I'm supporting multiple sites which access the same data. It soon became apparent that the best way was to create an API on the backend to service them all. Also worked for other shared resources i.e. images.
There is a slight penalty in the load times but is so small it isnt worth noting. It also helped when using other platforms i.e. ioS, android and Ajax.
You can rename the migrations table in your bootstrap/app.php like this:
$app->configure('database');
$app->config->set('database.migrations', 'backend_migrations');
That way you will get two migration tables, one for the frontend, and one for the backend all in the same database.
I have a static site with a lot of pages. Now I got a new requirement. Client need a Client Area, I am thinking to use laravel Database Eloquent, Session, Form/html, Session and want to use them as alias like use in laravel/lumen. The problem is that I want static pages same as it is with .html extension, is there any solution? I want some packages with aliases to speed up.
I spent a complete day on Configuring Input and Eloquent but I wasn't able to setup to other packages. But I don't know how to set aliases and service providers. Any idea?
Specific:
I need Laravel Some packages
Session,
FileSystem
Mail
Input
Database
Html/Form,
Validation
I don't need others packages and need aliases same as laravel used in (config/app)
yes you can use laravel components outside laravel project please read the article : http://www.richardbagshaw.co.uk/using-illuminate-components/
