I am making a query to my database and with the results obtained make a graph using the library chart.js.
This is my query that I make through my getChart method in my ReportController controller:
public function getChart(Request $request)
{
$_orders = DB::table('users')
->join('orders','orders.user_id','=','users.id')
->join('model_has_roles', 'users.id', '=', 'model_has_roles.model_id')
->select('users.id','users.name', DB::raw('COUNT(orders.id) as orders_by_user'), 'model_has_roles.role_id as rol')
->where('model_has_roles.role_id', '2');
$_orders->groupBy('orders.user_id', 'users.id', 'users.name', 'model_has_roles.role_id');
$orders=$_orders->get();
return ['orders' => $orders];
}
With this query I obtain the information of the name of the operator who was assigned a work order and I also obtain the number of work orders that he has in a finished state.
I'm basically relating the orders table to the users table.
As a result of the query I return a JSON like the following:
{
"orders": [
{
"id": 4,
"name": "Luis",
"orders_by_user": 2,
"rol": 2
},
{
"id": 6,
"name": "Jose",
"orders_by_user": 1,
"rol": 2
},
{
"id": 7,
"name": "Miguel",
"orders_by_user": 1,
"rol": 2
}
]
}
It seems that the STRUCTURE OF MY JSON is not correct so that the library chart.js understands the data that I am passing it.
Instead you would be needing a result like the following:
users: Array(3)
{
0: "Luis"
1: "Jose"
2: "Miguel"
}
orders_by_user: Array(3)
{
0: 2
1: 1
2: 1
}
So how to improve my original query? How to get the correct JSON structure for my chart?

So assuming that my original query is correct I use this my report.js file to make the graph.
report.js:
function renderChart(data, labels) {
var ctx = document.getElementById("orders").getContext('2d');
var myChart = new Chart(ctx, {
type: 'bar',
data: {
labels: labels,
datasets: [{
label: 'ordenes',
data: data,
borderColor: 'rgba(75, 192, 192, 1)',
backgroundColor: 'rgba(75, 192, 192, 0.2)',
borderWidth: 1,
}]
},
options: {
scales: {
yAxes: [{
ticks: {
beginAtZero: true
}
}]
},
title: {
display: true,
text: "Ordenes en estado terminado"
},
}
});
}
function getChartData() {
$.ajax({
url: '/admin/reports/getChart',
type: 'GET',
headers: {
'X-CSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content')
},
dataType: 'json',
success: function (data) {
// console.log(data);
var data = [];
var labels = [];
for (var i in data) {
data.push(data[i].orders_by_user);
labels.push(data[i].name);
}
renderChart(data, labels);
},
error: function (data) {
console.log(data);
}
});
}
$("#renderBtn").click(
function () {
getChartData();
}
);
When you want to graph, simply no data is displayed, it is an empty graph.
