I am following a Laravel course on Udemy and while I followed everything the instructor did, for some weird reason I am not getting the expected result.
This is the Relationship One to One lesson and I added a function in User Model to check if it has any posts.
Then added the route to display post if user_id equals.
app\User.php
public function post() {
return $this->hasOne('App\Post');
}
app\Httpoutes.php
Route::get('/user/{id}/post', function($id) {
return User::find($id)->post;
});
Below is the screenshot from the database showing that I have a post with user_id = 1 in the posts table. I also have a user with id=1 in the user's table. MySQL data Why do I get a blank page when visiting domain/user/1/post?
Sohel, i got a result from your function, but had to use
var_dump(User::with('post')->where('id',1)->first());
Then tried something else:
return User::with('post')->where('id',$id)->first();
And this is the result:
{"id":1,"name":"Nick","email":"nick@kriogen.name","created_at":"2018-03-15 09:49:51","updated_at":"2018-03-15 09:49:51","post":null}
I think you need ->hasMany()
relation if you want to check if user has any posts because the user can has many posts... and the code would be:
public function posts() {
return $this->hasMany('App\Post');
}
The call:
User::find($id)->posts;
Your one to one relationship should go as: app\User.php
public function post() {
return $this->hasOne('App\Post');
}
app\Post.php
public function user() {
return $this->hasOne('App\User');
}
you can try doing this function in controller:
public function getPost {
$user= User::find($id);
return $user->post();
}
The issue was not with the functions, the issue was in the database. Column deleted_at was not NULL and it was marking the post as being soft deleted, therefore not being displayed.
Since the "user_id" field is in the "posts" table, the relation in the App\User model need to be:
public function post() {
return $this->hasMany('App\Post');
}
then, call it without the parenthesis to get the result:
public function getPost {
$user= User::find($id);
return $user->post;
}
When you use the parenthesis, you get the builder and not the result. example:
public function getPost {
$user= User::find($id);
return $user->post()->get();
}
OR
public function getPost {
$user= User::find($id);
return $user->post()->where('name', 'like', '%hello%')->get();
}
