(DONE) How to return Array from Model laravel?

please if anyone can help, i still need it

@rarepyre what is the method which is passing data to this blade?

   @foreach($fr->delivery->deliveryTrack as $fp)
                <li class="text-left">
                    <b>{{ $fp->date }}</b>
                    <br>
                    {{ $fp->desc }}
                </li>
            @endforeach

@rarepyre also post the code for this model OrderDelivery

@automica what do you mean of "method which is passing data to this blade"? i'm not understand, i think i just doing @foreach which $fr = table orders (model= Order) and delivery = table order_deliveries (model= OrderDelivery), which i call deliveryTrack function in model OrderDelivery

i think i've done with the function (when i try dd($track) its return laravel dump which stopped the @foreach from the view

the value of $track is an array like (look at my thread)

nah i need to pass variable $track to my view, so i can do @foreach for array value of $track

@rarepyre you've got a controller method passing data to the blade that has that foreach in it. Can you share that?

@rarepyre it its your deliveryTrack method thats returning the $tracks, then replace the bottom of it with:

        if ($err) {
            echo "cURL Error #:" . $err;
        } else {
            $array = json_decode($response, true);
            $object = $array['rajaongkir']['result'];
            $tracks = []; // change this to tracks as you have an array

            if(!empty($object)){

                foreach ($object['manifest'] as $key => $field) {
                    array_push($tracks, [ // also change array name here
                        "date" => date('j M Y', strtotime($field['manifest_date'])) . ' ' . Carbon::parse($field['manifest_time'])->format('H:i'),
                        "desc" => $field['manifest_description'] . ' [' . $field['city_name'] . ']'
                    ]);
                };
            }
            return view('tracks.view',compact('tracks')); // return to view in location resources/views/tracks/view.blade.php
        }

I have renamed $track to track as its a multiple.

Then in your blade:

   @foreach($tracks as $track)
                <li class="text-left">
                    <b>{{ $track->date }}</b>
                    <br>
                    {{ $track->desc }}
                </li>
            @endforeach

view:

@foreach($resellerOrderStatus as $key => $fr)
    @foreach($fr->delivery->deliveryTrack as $fp)
                <li class="text-left">
                    <b>{{ $fp->date }}</b>
                    <br>
                    {{ $fp->desc }}
                </li>
    @endforeach
@endforeach

controller:

            $resellerOrderStatus = Order::where('type','delivery')->where('order_status_id','delivered')->paginate(10);
            
            return view('nk.orders.index', compact('resellerOrderStatus'));

the deliveryTrack is not controller, but its a model

btw is it possible to return array/string like (return ['a','b','c'] from Model without $this relationship / ORM ?

@rarepyre looking at your models though:

should your Order haveOne Delivery?

in that case, you wouldn't need a join table, as you can store delivery_id on order table.

yes order (one to one) to order_deliveries

ya! i think i can make it more simply, but is it possible to return array/string like (return ['a','b','c']) from Model without doing ORM ?

@rarepyre whats wrong with doing ORM? You make it hard for yourself if you don't use it.

@rarepyre your current issue is that your have set deliveries to be belongsToMany which means you are passing back an array

so in your deliveryTrack method you want to return $tracks;

and in your blade you need three foreach loops:

@foreach($resellerOrderStatus as $key => $orderStatus)
    @foreach($orderStatus->delivery as $delivery)
        @foreach($delivery->deliveryTrack as $deliveryTrack)
            <li class="text-left">
                <b>{{ $deliveryTrack->date }}</b>
                <br>
                {{ $deliveryTrack->desc }}
            </li>
        @endforeach
    @endforeach;
@endforeach

because in my case, i dont need to join to other table, i think i'm doing something wrong xD thanks for your response! i really appreciate it!

ah i see, thanks! @automica

@rarepyre btw I think as your deliveryTrack is more of the equivalent of a field rather than a model then you could call the method

getDeliveryTrackAttribute()

and then you can call it as a field

$tracks = $delivery->deliveryTrack;

see https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/eloquent-mutators#defining-an-accessor

I would recommend looking at revising your model relationships though as if you only need hasOne instead of hasMany and getting the first one it will make your table structure much easier.
