Getting body from another table while posting

Time:01-28

I have 2 table I want to post with a single form and create a comment at the same time. How can I do this in Laravel?

Posts table

id title slug
1 Hello world hello-world
2 O hi o-hi

Comments table

id post_id body
1 1 Lorem ipsum
2 2 Lorem ipsum
3 2 Lorem ipsum second same post

CodePudding user response:

I assume that you form looks like a post title input and post content input.

So in your Controller when you receive your Request containing the values of your form you can do something like the following :

$title = $request->title;
$body = $request->body;

// This line will only work if you imported your Eloquent model (use App\Models\Posts as an example)
$post = new Post;
$post->body = $body;
// For the slug just manipulate the string in order to have the desired output and do the same
$post->slug = $slug;
$post->save();
// Now get the id
$post_id = $post->id;

$comment = new Comment;
$comment->post_id = $post_id;
$comment->body = $body;
$comment->save();
