I have the following function:
public function alterar($id)
{
$produto = Produto::find($id);
$params = $request->all();
$produto->fill($params)->save();
return redirect()->action('ProdutoController@index');
}
however every time I change a product, a new one is added to the database (a new updated copy) and the old one is still there, so what is happening is a copy and not actually updating that product?
You could verify that the item was actually set and that it exists with the public property $ exists :
public function alterar($id)
{
$produto = Produto::find($id);
if ($produto && $produto->exists)
{
$params = $request->all();
$produto->fill($params)->save();
}
return redirect()->action('ProdutoController@index');
}
Your question seems to me to be as strange as it is, perhaps a more thorough investigation into routes and Controller to see if you have any wrong calling code would be a good idea of what might be happening. / p>
Reference public $ exists = false;
public function update($id)
{
$produto= Produto::find($id);
$produto->update(Input::all());
return view('suaView');
}
Remembering to have the $ fillable fields registered in the model for Mass Assignment to work right and safe.
You should also add the appropriate route, for example:
Route::post('produto/{id}', 'ProdutosController@update');
I hope I have helped.
Instead of using find , use findWhere , maybe it's the solution.
