Hello everyone,
I have a PHP Laravel CRUD application I made where I am using MVC style. I have controllers views and models. My database migration is made and my table in the database is made with php artisan migrate. I am using php 7.3 and laravel 5.8.
On my create view I go to create a single object in my database and my errors are thrown saying nothing in text box (no input) If I comment out the errors then just I click my submit button and nothing happens nothing is entered into my db. I have looked at many different crud examples and I am not sure why my object isn’t being created. Here is what I have
@section('main')
<section id="section-content" class="text-center">
<div class="container contentdiv rounded">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<div class="pb-2 mt-4 mb-2 border-bottom clearfix">
<h2>Create Contact</h2>
</div>
<div >
<a class="btn btn-success" href="{{route('contacts.index')}}">Back</a>
</div>
</div>
<!--
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-10 mx-auto mt-3">
<form method="POST" action="{{ route('contacts.store') }}">
@csrf
<div class="form-group row">
<label for="txtfn" class="col-sm-3">First Name:</label>
<div class="col-sm-9">
<input type="text" class="form-control" name="txtfn" id="txtfn"/>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group row">
<label for="txtln" class="col-sm-3">Last Name:</label>
<div class="col-sm-9">
<input type="text" class="form-control" name="txtln" id="txtln"/>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group row">
<label for="txtem" class="col-sm-3">Email:</label>
<div class="col-sm-9">
<input type="text" class="form-control" name="txtem" id="txtem"/>
</div>
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Create Contact</button>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</section>
//controller
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use App\Contact;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class ContactController extends Controller
{
public function store(Request $request)
{
$request->validate([
'first_name' => 'required',
'last_name' => 'required',
'email' => 'required'
]);
$contact = new Contact([
'first_name' => $request->get('first_name'),
'last_name' => $request->get('last_name'),
'email' => $request->get('email'),
'job_title' => $request->get('job_title'),
'city' => $request->get('city'),
'country' => $request->get('country')
]);
$contact->save();
return redirect('/contacts')->with('success', 'Contact saved!');
}
public function index()
{
$contacts = Contact::all();
return view('contacts.index', compact('contacts'));
}
/**
* Show the form for creating a new resource.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function create()
{
return view('contacts.create');
}
// model
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class Contact extends Model
{
protected $fillable = [
'first_name',
'last_name',
'email',
'city',
'country',
'job-title'
];
}
my env is setup correctly
What I have tried:
I started out getting an error I had to change a setting in appservice to allow a defaultstringlength to run my program correctly
It runs without errors Just now i want to simply create an object in my db
my input somehow isnt being found in my textboxes? im not sure
