I will explain first the tables and how code works
Tables
I have:
How the code works
When I create a project, I create two project translation too (one for each locale, ex: 'es', 'en'). and then I select a client and this makes the relation client_project.
When I delete the project, I delete at the same time the project_translations which have the same project_id and the client_project row where project_id is the same.
What I want
When I delete the client, delete the row which field client_id have the same value (this is working) and then, delete the projects and projects_translations of the projects which have relation with the client i deleted.
How my function looks for the moment
public function destroyClient($id) //Destruir cliente y todo lo relacionado de la bbdd
{
$cliente = Client::find($id);
$cliente->delete(); //delete the client
DB::table('client_project')->where('client_id',$id)->delete(); //delete the client_project relations which field client_id is the same that the client i just deleted.
return redirect()->route('admin.clients');
}
Following code will first get all the projects related to client. And then will delete all projects of a client through loop.
public function destroyClient($id)
{
$cliente = Client::find($id);
$cliente->delete(); //delete the client
// get list of all projects of client
$projects = DB::table('client_project')->where('client_id',$id)->get();
DB::table('client_project')->where('client_id',$id)->delete();
// delete all projects of client
foreach($projects as $project)
{
DB::table('projects')->where('id',$project->id)->delete();
DB::table('project_translations')->where('project_id',$project->id)->delete();
}
return redirect()->route('admin.clients');
}
Hope this can help you
public function destroyClient($id) //Destruir cliente y todo lo relacionado de la bbdd
{
$cliente = Client::find($id);
$cliente_project = DB::table('client_project')->where('client_id', $id)->first();
$project_id = $cliente_project->project_id;
$cliente->delete(); //delete the client
DB::table('client_project')->where('client_id',$id)->delete(); //delete the client_project relations which field client_id is the same that the client i just deleted.
DB::table('projects')->where('id',$project_id)->delete();
DB::table('project_translations')->where('project_id',$project_id)->delete();
return redirect()->route('admin.clients');
}
Maybe a better way is using foreing keys
I think you can try this :
public function destroyClient($id) //Destruir cliente y todo lo relacionado de la bbdd
{
$cliente = Client::find($id);
$cliente->delete(); //delete the client
$project = DB::table('client_project')->where('client_id',$id)->first();
DB::table('client_project')->where('client_id',$id)->delete();
DB::table('projects')->where('id',$project->project_id)->delete();
DB::table('project_translations')->where('project_id',$project->project_id)->delete();
return redirect()->route('admin.clients');
}
Hope this work for you !!!
