Yea I hear you, thanks for all the help.

OK friend we're getting there.

I am not using php artisan serve, I am using wamp and I run the app on localhost:3000 with browser sync / web pack, so not sure if I need to change anything there?

Ok I changed the redirect in my services.php, and in Valid OAuth Redirect URIs I now have http://localhost:3000//login/facebook/callback ( I do read what you say, I also tried changing it to http://localhost:8000//login/facebook/callback however now I get a new error on facebook website:

Facebook has detected olja isn't using a secure connection to transfer information.

So even though I am on localhost and in development mode I get this message.

Yea I just read your last post, not sure if http will work even on localhost.

@audunru I actually do have a redirect now, though thanks for letting me know it's the way to go, however still the problem of the method not being triggered persists.

I don't understand how am I supposed to be redirected to the callback route when facebook as you say does not connect to it. I think I might need to edit something in my facebook app or in services.php.

Please bear with me as I don't have much experience with this.

These are my routes:

Route::get('login/facebook', 'Auth\[email protected]');

Route::get('login/facebook/callback', 'Auth\[email protected]');

The actual website runs on http://localhost:3000/

In services.php I have

'facebook' => [
        'client_id' => 'myid',
        'client_secret' => 'mysecret',
        'redirect' => 'http://localhost/',
    ],

On my facebook app, I have localhost set for my App Domains (under Settings/Basic) and on that same page at the bottom I've added a website platform with site url of http://localhost:3000/

Under Products/Facebook Login/Settings , Valid OAuth Redirect URIs is empty.

Please tell me what needs changing? I tried changing my redirect in services.php to http://localhost:3000/login/facebook/callback however this gives me some error when trying to log in.

I also tried setting 'Valid OAuth Redirect URIs' to http://localhost:3000/login/facebook/callback but it won't accept it (I guess because of https)

So, my guess is I need to change my redirect in services.php and have that same redirect in Valid OAuth Redirect URIs, is that correct? If so, how do I do that on localhost? It seems to deman https for Valid OAuth Redirect URIs

Hi, are you sure?

Yes I am testing locally, but I don't think that's the issue.I think Facebook supports local development.

I think I do get logged in. I get a "state" session variable after logging in via facebook, and also I've implemented this facebook login locally without a framework or socialite (just 2 php scripts) and it worked fine.

I am trying to log a user in via Facebook and then use that user data to fill out the name and email in a comment form.

I am using Laravel / Socialite.

So in my LoginController I have this:

public function redirectToProvider()
    {
        return Socialite::driver('facebook')->redirect();
    }

public function handleProviderCallback(Request $request)
{
    $user = Socialite::driver('facebook')->user(); 

    $request->session()->put('user', $user);
}

By using breakpoints in both methods I came to the conclusion that the handleProviderCallback method is actually never triggered for some reason.

How to share session data accross views?

Say I have a session key with some data, in a controller I'd get it like so:

$session = $request->session()->get('someSessionValue');

And then pass it on to the view, fair enough.

And if I wanted to share some non session data accross all views, in AppServiceProvider I'd do e.g.:

public function boot()
    {
        $logo = \App\Misc::where('name', 'logo')->value('content');

        View::share('logo', $logo);

    }

But I cannot do that with session data, is it possible?

Custom index, e.g. I wanna do something like this (which doesn't work)

$request->session()->push('cart', 'customKey' => $productInfo); 

If I have a session value which is an array, I know I can just push to it, but can I push to it with a custom key?

$request->session()->push('cart', $productInfo); // can $productInfo here have custom key somehow?

Hello,

I am using Laravel 5.6.

I've set up dropzone and it works as far as uploading goes, but the completemultiple event (or any other ) is not firing, any ideas?

Dropzone.options.dropzoneForm = {
            acceptedFiles: "image/*",
            maxFilesize: 10,
            init: function () {
                this.on('completemultiple', function () {
                    console.log('done');
                    location.reload();
                });
            }
        }

I am returning 200 from the upload method:

return response()->json(['success' => 'success'], 200);

Maybe I am not returning what I should so dropzone does not know when it is done?

oh I see now, I thought it has something to do with it. I understand the dangers with public in the url, I wasn't gonna keep it so I just wondered why the url didn't work.

Thanks for clearing up app_url

I don't want it in the root. I've made a subdomain and it works, but still I wonder buy just going to root/site/public doesn't work even when changing the app_url in the .env file

I have a website in myroot.com/laravelsite/public , and i can access it, but the root on the site is www.myroot.com instead of myroot.com/laravelsite/public.

i changed the .env app_url to be myroot.com/laravelsite/public and I did php artisan config:clear but it is still the same.

Any ideas?

Hi guys, In my root I created a subfolder called mysite.

1. I created a folder inside of mysite called test and moved public files there and deleted the public folder

2. I've set 777 to storage folder

But now when i go to root/mysite/test , instead of seeing the homepage, i see Internal Server Error

Hey thank thanks for helping, yes double encoding seems to be the problem that needs to be solved, I managed to do it with some help from SO and it works, basically decode the whole thing and then decode just products and then encode the whole thing.

$s = DB::table('orders')->get();

        $orders = json_decode($s, true);

        $s = $orders[0]['products'];
        $orders[0]['products'] = json_decode($s, true);

        return json_encode($orders);

Yes I think you are right, it is double encoding.

I am using json_encode to store a php array, and then retreive the whole row as json, out of which producs is just one column (but the only one with an array, or json in this case).

Is there a better way of storing the php array in the first place or something like that, because I have to retreive the whole row in one go, I do not see another way?

(I tried to json_decode on the query result but no difference)

I get the following json response when I query my database:

    [{"id":1,"name":"my name","street":"Sava Burica","city":"Belgrade","state":"Zemun","zip":"11080","country":"Serbia","giftwrap":null,"products":"[{\"count\":2,\"id\":1,\"price\":275,\"name\":\"Kayak\"},{\"count\":1,\"id\":2,\"price\":48.95,\"name\":\"Lifejacket\"}]"}]

e db the column is like so:

[{"count":2,"id":1,"price":275,"name":"Kayak"},{"count":1,"i‌​d":2,"price":48.95,"‌​name":"Lifejacket"}]``` angularjs is being used on frontend.

It is all good except that the products value is a string and it should be an array.

I am using Laravel 5.3.

Can I somehow force it to return arrays as arrays and not as strings?

Hi guys, In Laravel 5 form helper does not exist anymore, so what is the best way to make forms sticky, so for example if validation fails for one input but is ok for another, the ok one should be remembered. I remember this was automatic with the html helper, but I wanna know if know there is another way since html helper is not part of laravel core anymore?

I am just playing around, it can be something else, not necessarily authentication, I just wanna know why if (! session()->has('something') does not work.

Hi Laravel friends, I am using Laravel 5.3 and have a weird problem.

If I have a user session or cookie set and have the following code:

@if ( ! session()->has('user') || ! \Cookie::has('user') )
            <li><a href="{{ url('/register') }}">Register</a></li>
            <li><a href="{{ url('/login') }}">Login</a></li>
            @endif

The links always get displayed, but on the other hand if I have the following code:

@if ( session()->has('user') || \Cookie::has('user') )
            <li><a href="{{ url('/logout') }}">Logout</a></li>
            @else
            <li><a href="{{ url('/register') }}">Register</a></li>
            <li><a href="{{ url('/login') }}">Login</a></li>
            @endif

it works as expected, basically the register and login links don't get displayed if the session or cookie user is set.

So checking if a session or cookie is not set with ! does not seem to be working, any ideas why?

Hello friends,

Inside the following code block, I am looping through an array of ids (there is actually just 1 id), and I get this error:

Undefined variable: id

However if I change

$query->where('seller_id', $id);

to

$query->where('seller_id', 10);

for example, I get the expected result. Why isn't it recognizing the $id inside the loop?

foreach ($ids as $id) {
            $true = DB::table('seller_images')
            ->where(function($query) 
            {
                $query->where('seller_id', $id);
            })
            ->where(function($query) 
            {
                $query->orWhere('passport_img', '!=', '')
                        ->orWhere('id_img', '!=', '')
                        ->orWhere('driving_img', '!=', '');
            })
            ->get();
            if ($true) $count = $id;
        }

        return $count;

Hello friends,

I am trying to validate an email field so that I make sure it's unique, but not in a row with a certain id, which I do like so:

'email' => 'required|email|unique:seller_user,email,'.$seller_id,

That works, but it automatically searches for a column named id, whereas in my table that table is actually called seller_id, so how can I change that?

return DB::table('profiles') ->where(function($query) { $query->where('verified', 0) ->where('vendor_type', '=', 3); }) ->orWhere('passport_img', '!=', '') ->orWhere('id_img', '!=', '') ->orWhere('driving_img', '!=', '') ->count();

I have 2 records in the table, one has a vendor_type of 1 and the other 3, this is supposed to return 1 result, that is verified and vendor_type are mandatory and out of the other 3 at least ONE should not be empty, however it keeps returning 2 instead of 1.

Got the answer on stackoverflow, $paginator->appends(['query' => $value])->links();

Hello, I have a search in Laravel 4. After search for sh my url is this:

http://localhost/musiter/product/search-products/24?query=sh

I also have pagination there, but the pagination for the second link for example is:

http://localhost/musiter/product/search-products/24?page=2

instead of:

http://localhost/musiter/product/search-products/24?query=sh&page=2

Any way to fix this?

No it is in a custom controller called AdminController.

The send method is laravel's built in method, returning a normal redirect from constructor does not work in Laravel for some reason.

In my controller I have the following:

function __construct() { Redirect::to('admin/login')->send(); } However after it redirects the browser gives the following error:

This webpage has a redirect loop How can I avoid this?

I have an admin section in my app which works fine, however now I want to close it so only admin has access. Basically I want to redirect to admin/login if a non-admin person is trying to access admin pages.

This is my admin route (which works):

Route::controller('admin', 'AdminController');

I tried adding the following filter above the admin controller route, and I also commented out the local array element so the environment is set to production, but it is just not working.

Route::filter('isAdmin', function()
{
    if ( ! Session::has('admin') ) {
        return Redirect::to('admin/login');
    }
});

Route::get('admin', array('before' => 'isAdmin', function() 
{
    echo 'You are over 200 years old!';
}));

Route::controller('admin', 'AdminController');

So if now I go to mysite/admin , I still get to admin dashboard even though session admin does not exist.

I have my laravel app inside www/mylaravelapp folder, and if I use / for home link, as in HOME, for some reason it goes to localhost, not localhost/mylaravelapp.

But if if I use for example the Form helper, when I provide the url for the form, it works as expected, the url is correct, but in a 'a' tag in a view it is not.

Can I set my root domain somewhere so that it works as it should?
