Call to a member function store() on null
Any clue why I get this error:
Call to a member function store() on null
ProfileController.php
public function store(Request $request)
{
$this->validate($request,[
'photo' => 'required',
'nim' => 'required',
'nama' => 'required',
'alamat' => 'required'
]);
$profile = new Profile;
// $profile->photo = $request->photo;
// storage/app/photo/random.jpg
$path = $request->file('photo')->store('public/photo');
$profile->photo = $path;
$profile->nim = $request->nim;
$profile->nama = $request->nama;
$profile->alamat = $request->alamat;
$profile->save();
Session::flash('flash', 'Data sudah tersimpan');
return view('admin.add_profile');
}
add_profile.blade.php
<form method="post" action="{{ url('profile') }}" enctype="multipart/form-data">

<div class="form-group">

Validate that the image is a valid image as well
$this->validate($request,[
'photo' => 'required|image',
'nim' => 'required',
'nama' => 'required',
'alamat' => 'required'
]);

not your problem, but NEVER return a view from a post request
Level 27
Then what should I return? since I have to return to the same page to get the error validation message.
Level 122
You should return to the route that displayed the form in the first place
Level 27
Let say I want to return to the store function:
Route::post('profile', 'ProfileController@store')->name('profile.store');
so it will be like:
redirect store();
like that?
Level 122
No, the route that GETs the form
Level 102
The easiest thing to do is to return back
return redirect()->back();
Level 27
For some reason using view still works just fine.
return view('admin.add_profile');
Level 122
Yes it will show form, but you will have strange errors like when you post the form return the view and the user then presses refresh. Your browser will try doing a post again.
But what do I know ?
Level 27
Perhaps you are right. Earlier I have double post when trying to add the profile.
Will it works just fine with:
return redirect()->back();
?
What exactly should I write the return?
Level 102
yes that will work fine. Unless it should return to a specific page
For example it can return to a named route
return redirect()->route('admin.profiles');
Level 122
Yes, that will work fine, however in most of my crud pages I actually want to return to the index after writing the data, not back to the same form
Level 1
May be u forget to apply enctype="multipart/form-data" in a form
