scan through json data in blade

Consider doing such logic in Controller

$currentUserIsFollower = false;

foreach ($jsonData as $data) {
    if ($data['follower'] === Auth::user()->name) {
        $currentUserIsFollower = true;
    }
}

return view('some-view', [
    'isFollower' => $currentUserIsFollower,
]);

some-view.blade.php

@if ($isFollower)
    I'm follower
@endif 

@cronix @Snapey 2 perfect guys on Laracast. may i ask for help

@kaiden as this is not a paid support, you could at least thank another member for taking their time to reply. And what's wrong with working it out in the controller?

If this comes from ajax, then perhaps loop over using JS. But blade does have @if.

@jlrdw its strange i was thinking to write your name after snapey and cronix. you know you are the best in here.

i know its not paid but i saw @cronix answered another questions within last few minutes so i thought while hes on other questions maybe he can take a look at my question too.

of course it not appropiate to do so. but your answers on point most of the time and i really tired of searching answers on google.

whatever....

the main problem is this thing.

whats that?

[{"follow_id":1,"follower":"kai","following":"birkan","created_at":"2018-06-17 19:05:22"},{"follow_id":2,"follower":"none","following":"birkan","created_at":"2018-06-17 19:10:27"}]

Is it an PHP array or its a JSON object. i am tangled. Is there a function which can look for every "follower" property and tell me at least one of them consist "kai" or not thats the real question in here

An example I saved a while back:

    public function testJson_bak()
    {
        $data = '[{  
    "ClientID":24,
    "Name":"Client1",
    "Balance1":null,
    "Balance2":null
},
{  
    "ClientID":25,
    "Name":"Client2",
    "Balance1":24,
    "Balance2":0
}]';
        //dd($data);
        $decoded = json_decode($data, true);
        //dd($decoded);
        foreach ($decoded as $d) {
            foreach ($d as $k => $v) {
                echo "$k - $v\n";
            }
        }
    }

Perhaps that will get you going, a foreach with an if to find needed value should work.

[{"follow_id":1,"follower":"kai","following":"birkan","created_at":"2018-06-17 19:05:22"},{"follow_id":2,"follower":"none","following":"birkan","created_at":"2018-06-17 19:10:27"}]

It's a javascript array, of 2 json objects. Where does it come from? Is it just loaded in the controller an passed to the view, or is this the result of an ajax request?

@cronix loaded in the controller and passed to the view. Its like that because its loads a "hasMany" relationship. like......

$entries = Entry::where('topic_fk', $topic)
           ->with('user.following')  //thats where its coming from
           ->orderBy('created_at', 'desc')
           ->paginate(10);
