when trying to extract some values from the database using the model object User I get the following error : BadMethodCallException Method [find] does not exist
Here are my files : Model User
<?php
use Illuminate\Auth\UserInterface;
use Illuminate\Auth\Reminders\RemindableInterface;
class User extends Eloquent implements UserInterface, RemindableInterface {
/**
* The database table used by the model.
*
* @var string
*/
protected $table = 'users';
/**
* The attributes excluded from the model's JSON form.
*
* @var array
*/
protected $hidden = array('password');
public function projects()
{
return $this->belongsToMany('Project');
}
public function trys()
{
return $this->hasMany('Try');
}
/**
* Get the unique identifier for the user.
*
* @return mixed
*/
public function getAuthIdentifier()
{
return $this->getKey();
}
/**
* Get the password for the user.
*
* @return string
*/
public function getAuthPassword()
{
return $this->password;
}
/**
* Get the e-mail address where password reminders are sent.
*
* @return string
*/
public function getReminderEmail()
{
return $this->email;
}
}
Controller user :
<?php
class user extends BaseController {
public function showWelcome($id)
{
$user1 = User::find($id);
return View::make('users.index', array('user' => $user1)); //
}
}
View users/index.php
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>first page</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php echo 'Hello'; ?>
</body>
</html>
and the routes.php :
<?php
Route::get('user/{id}', 'user@showWelcome');
Route::get('/', function()
{
return View::make('hello');
});
Thanks for the help
You should not get this error, because it seems like you are using Eloquent and there is a find()
method on it.
But you are getting this error and there are some possible reasons:
1) The User::
you are calling is not the same you are showing here, to check execute in your controller:
$reflector = new ReflectionClass("User");
$fn = $reflector->getFileName();
dd($fn);
It must show you the full path of your class.
2) There's is something wrong with autoloading, you can run:
composer dumpautoload
To try to fix it.
3) There is something wrong with Laravel sources, you can delete Laravel code:
rm -rf vendor/laravel
and install it again
composer update
Sometimes this conflict is caused when another model of the same name exists in Laravel and most likely has a precedence over your model. Avoid "Key Words". For me, my problem was calling my model: Form and my db table (from a migration): forms.
Running the following cmd in my FormController:
$reflector = new ReflectionClass("Form");
$fn = $reflector->getFileName();
dd($fn);
showed me that the "real" Form was located in the Illuminate framework:
"/home/pkanane/laravel_appz/cpay/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Support/Facades/Form.php"
So I just changed my model name to WebForm and my db table to web_forms
