model relationship and routes get model id - laravel

Question

i have the following route:
Route::get('notes/main', function(){
$destinations = Destination::where('show', '=','1')->get();
$notes = Destination::find($destination->id)->notes()->get();
return View::make('notes.main')
->with('destinations', $destinations);
});
//the relationship models:
<?php
class Destination extends Eloquent {
public function notes()
{
return $this->has_many('Note');
}
}
<?php
class Note extends Eloquent
{
public function destination()
{
return $this->belongs_to('Destination');
}
}
//View:
#foreach( $destinations as $destination)
{{ $destination->name}}<br>
{ $notes->destination->text }} // this isn't echoed
#endforeach
what's the correct way to filter this and define $destination->id
thanks
How would i Filter the notes in an if statement inside the loop ?
#if (isset($note->title) != 'shorttext')
#else
<p> {{ $note->text }} </p>
#endif
#endforeach

Answer 1

You use $destination->id in your Route but it seems to be not defined yet. The question is, what do you want to achieve with your code?
With:
$destinations = Destination::where('show', '=','1')->get();
$notes = Destination::find($destination->id)->notes()->get();
you are getting only the Notes of one specific destination (so far, $destination is not defined. You could use Destination::all()->first() to get the first, or Destination::find(id), with ID being replaced with the primary key value of the destination you need).
But I guess you don't want it that way. From your Output it seems like you want to have an output with each destination and below each destination the corresponding Notes.
Controller:
//gets all the destinations
$destinations = Destination::where('show', '=','1')->get();
return View::make('notes.main')
->with('destinations', $destinations);
View:
#foreach( $destinations as $destination)
{{ $destination->name}}<br>
#foreach($destination->notes as $note)
{{ $note->text }} <br>
#endforeach
<hr>
#endforeach
Didn't test this, but this way your View would show you all your Destinations and for each Destination all the Notes.

Answer 2

In your route, your not sending $notes variable to the view.
How I would do it:
$destinations = Destination::where('show', '=','1')->get();
$destinations->notes = Destination::find($destination->id)->notes()->get();
Then in view:
#foreach( $destinations as $destination)
{{ $destination->name}}<br>
{{ $destination->notes->text }}
#endforeach

Answer 3

So first you asked a question, I gave you a correct answer.
You marked my answer as accepted, but later on you edit your initial question to add another question (for which you should create a new thread instead).
Then you create your own answer which is only answering part of your initial question and mark that as the good solution?
I could tell you why your isset and empty did not work, but why should I if you don't value my help at all?

Answer 4

OK
for the last part this worked out at the end
function isset and empty didn't work , strange:
#if ($note->title == 'shorttext')
