Agreed, you should set up some search queries and narrow down your results.

An example would be in books, searching by author, searching by title, searching by subject, etc.

I would say go to a book shop online and a auto shop online and get some ideas of how they use drill down searching.

The idea of efficient database use, is to only retrieve the results needed.

Use Authentication for login and use authorization to determine who can do what.

You can just make separate login panels depending on role.

To redirect depending on the role, see https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/laravel/version-8-redirects

If it is stored as string, to loop it, use explode function.

Just look this function up in the PHP manual it explains its usage.

@gitwithravish here is correct, this guide is from @snapey website, secure and works:

http://novate.co.uk/deploy-laravel-5-on-shared-hosting-from-heart-internet/

Also see images here https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/laravel/next-issue-fonts-and-images-arent-visible

Notice in image "Main Laravel" is above, meaning outside of public_html.

Furthermore here is a guide from Laravel News:

https://laravel-news.com/subfolder-install

Why not store the value in database fields, in related table.

Why didn't you store as Json.

@lemmon I suggest looking at the deployment chapter.

https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/deployment

Did you read the chapter on facade usage.

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Request;

That is how you do a static looking Call.

In Laravel 8, Input is gone. Suggested to use $image_tmp = Request::file('image');

Your code was correct just missing that use statement.

Try to chunk the results. https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/queries#chunking-results

@rodrigo.pedra did you see anything wrong with using a parameter for report type, I thought it would be the easy solution.

Especially since you want to cut down on the number of routes, not have more.

I would pass a parameter for the report type you want:

Route::get('/salesorders/{report}', 'Order\[email protected]');

then

• if $report is shipping-report, run model shipping-report code with return.
• if $report is daily-shipping-report, run model daily-shipping-report code with return.

I would store the data in regular database fields, not json. Then use regular crud (create, read, update, delete) techniques to handle this stuff.

I usually restrict a json field to simple data, like a small checkbox array where you might store:

["biking", "jogging", null, "baseball"]

Where someone checked biking, jogging, and baseball, and the null wasn't checked, in this case it was swimming not checked.

But just my opinion and just an example.

If you are using a query scope then only have one route and differentiate between your reports in the scope.

It would probably be easier just to have a different methough (function).

Check the firstOrNew() method in eloquent docs.

You need you repo url, not the authors.

Could you show as solved.

You need you repo url, not the authors.

A fork will use your name. Is gocardless your Github repo.

And if you put in for a pull request I would wait and see if it goes through, that way you could just use the original.

Or fork and have your own to modify as you see fit.

Can you share the link to that GitHub repository.

https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Basics-Getting-a-Git-Repository

When you click in the repo clone or download, the link should be there, that is the correct to pull it in.

Just use git to pull it in.

Git for url, composer is like this example:

   "laravel/framework": "^8.0",

Since @thewebartisan7 mentioned jquery, I'd like to add:

When I started to use fetch js instead of jquery, I learned quickly that jquery handles a lot for you.

Like https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/javascript/jquery-td-to-javascript-td

It was a little more involved in fetch js and plain js.

I would suspect that jquery will be around a long time and maybe even out last some of the others, it still does so much for you.

Just remember you can redesign those screens anyway you like. For example in one app I have admin and bookkeeper roles. I redirect to their area depending on role.

It's a little involved, I won't go into details, but you might have one person who is admin and bookkeeper.

In such a case they are redirected to admin area, but a link is shown to bookkeeping. The link is only shown if they have both roles. Nothing a small if statement doesn't take care of.

You have to remember also that when the scaffolding takes place, it's only meant as a starter, I'm sure Taylor figured Developers would redesign to their custom needs.

I find it pretty easy to take one panel, duplicate it, and do the final design in one for admin, and the other bookkeeper.

Also I definitely use Authentication for a login is required, and use authorization to determine what that logged in person can or cannot do.

I use fetch js and regular js. Tailwind of course is css. I normally write my own CSS where needed and use bootstrap.

I don't see why any of this stuff is scaffolded or included. If a developer wanted to use livewire, they could install it.

I like the PHP framework I'll leave it at that.

And I know you've been around since the beginning also since the version 4 good ole days.

And to answer your original question, no.

Many application types such as supply, inventory, bookkeeping and accounting, income and expense reports, locistics with dispatch software, these are much the same techniques over the years. I just tailor to the companies custom needs.

It helps when you have worked in these industries with paper and pencil and file cabinets as well, which I have. It helps to understand what is needed in a program.

Basic bookkeeping has been the same for generations. But just requires some custom code, I.e., it's a little different for a non profit.

A good real life example, when I had to program for a non profit, I did not go to a forum. Rather I set up several in person meetings with a CPA to learn exactly what is needed for the IRS concerning this non profit, etc. So that's where I began.

I believe:

Do industry professionals really use UML diagrams

No. someone may flash one around, but probably not a programmer.

Glad to hear you solved it.

Is the file named whatever.blade.php?

Was hoping carbon docs would be used as isMonday, etc is right in the docs. That way @kalimeromk would learn carbon usage. But great answer.

Some if constructs and look at carbon examples:

https://carbon.nesbot.com/docs/

I think this is only going to print the current window.

https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/met_win_print.asp

You could search for some JavaScript functions that handles that I've seen a few but haven't saved the links.

Use a date field in MySQL.

@farshadf there are tutorials on sms like https://laravel-news.com/sending-receiving-sms-laravel-nexmo

But what if someone doesn't have a cell phone.

Even some sites that send a verification token sms will also allow via email as alternative.

Just something to think about.

Also here is a post on audio using the html audio tag: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/59135031/how-to-play-and-download-audio-from-database-in-laravel In case you missed that.

@martinbean isn't passport targeted more to API's.

I can login on stackoverflow (regular web pages) with facebook, non api.

But I don't know if @foks meant api, or traditional web app.

Ok here is the update code from your package, it should guide you:

    public function update($id, $data)
    {
        if ($this->fireEvent('updating', $data) === false) {
            return false;
        }

        $cart = $this->getContent();

        $item = $cart->pull($id);

        foreach ($data as $key => $value) {
            // if the key is currently "quantity" we will need to check if an arithmetic
            // symbol is present so we can decide if the update of quantity is being added
            // or being reduced.
            if ($key == 'quantity') {
                // we will check if quantity value provided is array,
                // if it is, we will need to check if a key "relative" is set
                // and we will evaluate its value if true or false,
                // this tells us how to treat the quantity value if it should be updated
                // relatively to its current quantity value or just totally replace the value
                if (is_array($value)) {
                    if (isset($value['relative'])) {
                        if ((bool)$value['relative']) {
                            $item = $this->updateQuantityRelative($item, $key, $value['value']);
                        } else {
                            $item = $this->updateQuantityNotRelative($item, $key, $value['value']);
                        }
                    }
                } else {
                    $item = $this->updateQuantityRelative($item, $key, $value);
                }
            } elseif ($key == 'attributes') {
                $item[$key] = new ItemAttributeCollection($value);
            } else {
                $item[$key] = $value;
            }
        }

        $cart->put($id, $item);

        $this->save($cart);

        $this->fireEvent('updated', $item);
        return true;
    }

You do know you can search a github repo for methods, right.

In above see this line:

relatively to its current quantity value or just totally replace the value

The problem is that I need to login two times to enter my site

Are you saying:

• login two times to enter my site (is that intended behavior?)

or

• Are you expecting just one login, but two is a mistake?

I would use the authenticated method of the login controller for this, part of the trait.

I have redirected depending on if admin, if bookkeeper, etc and never had to touch middleware.

Comment out

// protected $redirectTo = '/polizza';  not needed.

Can you show as answered, thanks.

        $this->save($cart);

        $this->fireEvent('updated', $item);
        return true;
    }

You do know you can search a github repo for methods, right.

In above see this line:

Use their example as guide

Cart::update($rowId, 2); // Will update the quantity

So in yours retrieve the new quanatity in request and perform an update then display cart with updated information.

No different that other updates.

In your package is the quantities held in session, or where. Either way you should be able to perform the updated quantity.

This line here:

Adding an item to the cart is really simple.......

Cart::add('293ad', 'Product 1', 1, 9.99);

Looks like they add one item. So if one was in cart, now it's two. Or am I reading it wrong.

I shop online often, usually when updating quantity, you are adding the amount you want to add.

• I have currently one.
• If I want to have two, then add one.

That is pretty standard.

But you could put a screen shot here, use imgur. And standard img tag in text area.

You could setup another laravel project, and use the demo for learning:

https://github.com/darryldecode/laravelshoppingcart-demo

@imrulhasan273 that's an avatar.

See https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/laravel/pass-data-from-ajax-to-controller-via-post-and-back-to-blade

See https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/laravel/pass-data-from-ajax-to-controller-via-post-and-back-to-blade

If you are new to shopping carts, I would suggest you look over the code on a couple on Github and get some ideas of how things are done. Just a suggestion.

But here:

public function storeValue(Request $request)
{
    $data = $request->all();

    // do what you need here

  return Response::json(['success' => 'all okay']);
// replace with what you need to do.
}

If you need to redirect, you can do it in js

window.location.href = "your_url";  // route

And above, don't forget to validate data.

@araw because you are using ajax, it expects a response. The network tab is the way to troubleshoot ajax request and response.

@araw or use your network tab.
