创建新帖子时获取用户 ID

Question

i wanted to retrieve id from Users Table for user_id field in Posts table

i've already tried with Auth::id(); but its retrieving current authenticated Id

so what i wanted is, when i created new data, the id from Users to be displayed at user_id Field in Posts Table

This is my Post model:

public function user()
{
    return $this->belongsTo(User::class);
}    

This is my User Model:

public function posts()
{
    return $this->hasMany(post::class);
}

and this is how i currently stored my data:

$post = new post;
    // $post->parent_id = $request->input('id');
    $post->user_id = Auth::id(); 
    $post->type = $request->input('type');
    $post->slug = str_slug($request->input('title'));
    $post->title = $request->input('title');
    $post->body = $request->input('body');
    $post->excerpt = $request->input('excerpt');
    $post->image = $imageName;
    $post->tag = $request->input('tag');
    $post->metas = $request->input('metas');
    $post->ispublished = $request->input('ispublished');
    $post->published_at = $request->input('published_at');
    $post->save();

how do i exactly do what i want?

// edited i'm new to this so i got my questions all wrong,

i already got what i want by using Auth::id. i just wanted to record the id of the creator of the posts

Answer 1

your question isn't clear exactly, but you can use relationship to this work like :

$user->post()->create([
    $post->type = $request->input('type');
    $post->slug = str_slug($request->input('title'));
    $post->title = $request->input('title');
    $post->body = $request->input('body');
    $post->excerpt = $request->input('excerpt');
    $post->image = $imageName;
    $post->tag = $request->input('tag');
    $post->metas = $request->input('metas');
    $post->ispublished = $request->input('ispublished');
    $post->published_at = $request->input('published_at');
]);

This solution isn't really good in terms of performance because it uses join.

Answer 2

Check your routes to the controller if it has middleware. To retrieve user data through Auth middleware is required.

Example

Route::post('/', 'PostController@store')->middleware('auth:users');
