How to show comments and replycomments in laravel

Question

I don't know how to show comments and replycomments in my post page. My comments table contains id, sender_id, replyer_id, reply_id, comment_text.

CommentController returns a comment object. In Post.blade.php, how do I write a foreach loop or loops?

Answer 1

Your Controller code must be similar to this:

public function index() 
{
    $comments = Comment::with(['sender', 'other-relation'])->get();
    return view('comments.index', compact('comments'));
}

and your blade code must be similar to this:

<ul>
@foreach($comments as $comment)
    <li>{{ $comment->comment_text }}</li>
    @if ($comment->sender) // or other relation 
        <a> {{$comment->sender->name}}<a> // relation name and column name must be fix yourself
    @endif
@endforeach
</ul>
