Retrieve all App\Post models related to the authenticated user and display them in the view.
Undefined variable: and Property [id] does not exist on this collection instance when clicking on the <a name="posts"> tag.
PagesController :
public function show($id) {
$user = User::find($id);
return view('pages.index', compact('user'));
}
Index :
@extends('layouts.app')
@section('content')
<h1>Welcome to notesite!</h1>
<a href="/notes/show/{{ Auth::user()->id }}" name="posts">Show your posts</a>
@endsection
Routes :
Route::get('/', function () {
return view('welcome');
});
Route::get('/pages/index', 'PagesController@index');
Route::get('/pages/about', 'PagesController@about');
Route::get('/pages/services', 'PagesController@services');
Route::get('/notes/index', 'NotesController@index');
Route::get('/notes/show/{user}', 'NotesController@show');
Auth::routes();
Route::get('/home', 'HomeController@index')->name('home');
Can anyone provide a solution?
Welcome to SO!
I'd recommend you reading up on Eloquent relationships, especially the part about eager loading if you plan on dealing with a lot of records.
You could do something like the following:
User Model
// Add this bit to your existing model to define the relationship
// ( assuming that 1 user can have many different posts )
public function posts() {
return $this->hasMany('App\Post');
}
Post Model
// By default, Eloquent will automatically determine the proper foreign key column,
// noted here as user_id
protected $fillable = ['title', 'body', 'user_id'];
PostController
public function show() {
$posts = App\User::find(Auth::id())->posts; // Fetch the authenticated users posts
return view('show-posts', compact('posts') ); // Pass them back to the view
}
routes/web.php
Route::view('/pages/index', 'index');
Route::get('/posts/show', 'PostController@show');
index.blade.php
<a href="/posts/show">Show user-specific posts!</a>
show-posts.blade.php
@foreach( $posts as $post )
{{ $post->body }}
@endforeach
