Json_decoding array Session vars in Blade?

@derick100 decode each array element?

@foreach(Session::get('offices') as $office)
    {{ json_decode($office)->name }}
@endforeach

did you need the values in JSON format because you could of just

Session['offices'] = array('Paris','London','Barcelona');

@colender You do bring up a good point, as I inherited some of this code that creates the Session: ($arrLocationIds is an array of location_id's)

$locations = Location::whereIn('id', $arrLocationIds)->select('name')->get();
Session::push('offices', $locations);

The resulting structure does look unnecessarily complicated, when all I really do want to store is the names, and be able to retrieve them as simply as possible.
How can i?

Does Location::whereIn('id', $arrLocationIds)->select('name')->get(); give you an array ?

This is just assuming your getting a collection in return

$locations = Location::whereIn('id', $arrLocationIds)->select('name')->get();
Session::push('offices', $locations);

is inside a look right? if so

$temp = array();
 $locations = Location::whereIn('id', $arrLocationIds)->select('name')->get();
array_push($temp,$locations);
}
Session::push('offices', $temp);

or

$locations = Location::whereIn('id', $arrLocationIds)->select('name')->get();
Session::push('offices', array($locations));

@kfirba
{{ json_decode($office)->name }}
Results in a "Trying to get property of non-object" Error

$locations = Location::whereIn('id', $arrLocationIds)->select('name')->get();
echo "<pre>";
var_dump($locations);
echo "</pre>";

gives me this huge/complicated structure, that then gets stored in Session by: Session::push('offices', $locations)
