Now i need to attach module_url as a new param with the existing response the above response looks like
{
"current_page": 1,
"data": [
{
"id": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
"type": "App\Notifications\ActivityReminderNotification",
"notifiable_type": "App\Models\User",
"notifiable_id": "xxxxx",
"data": {
"module": "activities",
"module_id": "xxxxx",
"message": "Hi there, an activity has been overdue"
},
"read_at": null,
"created_at": "2019-08-27 18:12:29",
"updated_at": "2019-08-27 18:12:29"
},
{
"id": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
"type": "App\Notifications\ActivityReminderNotification",
"notifiable_type": "App\Models\User",
"notifiable_id": "xxxxx",
"data": {
"module": "activities",
"module_id": "xxxxx",
"message": "Hi there, an activity has been overdue"

}
],
"first_page_url": "http://domain_url/notifications?page=1",
"from": 1,
"last_page": 1,
"last_page_url": "http://domain_url/notifications?page=1",
"next_page_url": null,
"path": "http://domain_url/notifications",
"per_page": "10",
"prev_page_url": null,
"to": 2,
"total": 2
}
How can i attach the module_url if i use foreach and split as array then i can't get the pagination for this, can anyone please help me to solve this one.
Hi @rider - have you looked at https://laravel.com/docs/5.7/eloquent-serialization#appending-values-to-json ?
Also, it's not great practise to access env() directly. It is better to access that value in a config file, one of the benefits being that the value gets cached.
Thanks for the reply Mikenewbuild, i have referred Appending-Values-to-json, i don't have any particular model for notification, if there means i can simply write [append] array in model, in my case iam not having any particular model file for notification, how can i attach an new attribute to this json..
@rider I see. Is it possible to add your module_url value when you add the other data attributes to the notification?
Otherwise you could transform the $notifications and insert the extra value before you pass it to the view?
it seems your suggestion will help for me, thanks for the reply @mikenewbuild ..
