Hi, i'm developing an api with Laravel and DingoAPI which returns the message threads of the user with pagination.
$threads = Thread::forUser($currentUserId)->latest('updated_at')
->simplePaginate(1);
return API::response()->array($threads);
and i get this kind of response :
{
"per_page": 1,
"current_page": 1,
"next_page_url": "http://my.app/api/messages?page=2",
"prev_page_url": null,
"from": 1,
"to": 1,
"data": [
{
"id": 1,
"subject": null,
"created_at": "2016-03-18 12:33:38",
"updated_at": "2016-03-18 12:33:38",
"deleted_at": null
}
]
}
What can i do to remove some field of the response ? i just need data and next_page_url …
use unset in your array before return or create a new array
unset($threads['per_page'] );
unset($threads['current_page'] );
unset($threads['prev_page_url'] );
unset($threads['from'] );
unset($threads['to'] );
return API::response()->array($threads);
or
$array = [
'next_page_url' => $threads['next_page_url'],
'data' => $threads['data']
]
return API::response()->array($array);
:)
@andremellow sorry actually it doens't work.
only null values are returned in the $array.
I guess Dingo Api is doing some work behind the scene…
@mushu8 , What array? What solution did you implement ?
@andremellow your solution :
$array = [
'next_page_url' => $threads['next_page_url'],
'data' => $threads['data']
]
return API::response()->array($array);
but every keys have null values
first all try a dd ($array);
$array = [
'next_page_url' => $threads['next_page_url'],
'data' => $threads['data']
]
dd ($array);
return API::response()->array($array);
if your array have data, try to return like this:
return json_enconde($array);
i did it !!
it returns :
<pre class='xdebug-var-dump' dir='ltr'>
<small>/home/vagrant/love_wangu/app/Api/V1/Http/Controllers/MessagesController.php:54:</small>
<b>array</b> <i>(size=2)</i>
'next_page_url' <font color='#888a85'>=></font> <font color='#3465a4'>null</font>
'data' <font color='#888a85'>=></font> <font color='#3465a4'>null</font>
</pre>
by the way I prefere returning a json
return Response::json($array , 200);
can you place all your function code here?
and try dd( $threads ) as well;
