This is very simple session logic. I don't know why this isn't working. Here the code.
if(Session::get('sign_up_data')){
echo 1;
}else{
echo 2;
Session::put('sign_up_data',21);
}
exit;
Always echoing 2 every time i reload the page. I am expecting echoing 2 on first load then the next 1 and 1 and 1 and soon. Tried different approach but still getting the same result. Do you any idea guys?
If you kill the application mid-cycle (through exit, dd, etc.), the session data won't write. Remove the exit, and you are good.
If you need to kill the script mid-cycle, then save the session data manually. So, in other words, this works:
if(Session::get('sign_up_data')){
echo 1;
}else{
echo 2;
Session::put('sign_up_data',21);
}
// exit;
If you are going to kill the script, then call save manually like this:
if(Session::get('sign_up_data')){
echo 1;
}else{
echo 2;
Session::put('sign_up_data',21);
Session::save();
}
exit;
Check that your config for the session driver isn't set to array. Arrays aren't persistent.
Use chrome/firefox dev tools to check that a session cookie is being created and is the same every time you reload
As a final point you can simplify you code to use the default response feature (which will not solve your problem but is better code)/
