I would like to display in a table the name of the user as well as the number of photos posted during the current week. Example : User1 has posted 10 photos, User2 has posted 20 photos...
So I need a count, but I'm not sure how.
Picture model :
public function user()
{
return $this->belongsTo('App\Models\User');
}
User model :
public function pictures()
{
return $this->hasMany('App\Models\Picture');
}
Query in the controller :
$users = User::whereHas('pictures',
fn($q) => $q->where('created_at', '>=', Carbon::now()->subDays(7)->toDateTimeString()))
->limit(10)
->get();
In the view:
{{ $user->photos->count() }}
Except that it counts all the photos of the user and not just the photos for the past week. How can I only count the recent photos?
Creating a new relationship is a valid way to solve your problem, but here's another option.
You can use thewithCount()
method. By passing an array, you can use a closure to limit the results of the count to match the constraint on the relation:
$users = User::whereHas(
'pictures',
fn($q) => $q->where('created_at', '>=', now()->subWeek())
)
->withCount([
'pictures' => fn ($q) => $q->where('created_at', '>=', now()->subWeek()
])
->limit(10)
->get();
Now in your view, you can use$user->pictures_count
.
I do this :
In the User model :
public function current_week_pictures()
{
return $this->hasMany('App\Models\Picture')
->whereBetween('created_at', [Carbon::now()->startOfWeek(), Carbon::now()->endOfWeek()]);
}
Query in the controller :
$users = User::whereHas('current_week_pictures')
->with('current_week_pictures')
->limit(10)
->get();
In the view, to count :
{{ $user->pictures->count() }}
Here you get users which post a photo since last 7 days.
$users = User::whereHas('pictures',
fn($q) => $q->where('created_at', '>=', Carbon::now()->subDays(7)->toDateTimeString()))
->limit(10)
->get();
Then here you try to count the number of photo a user have
$user->photos->count()
But you count only photos of users which post last 7 days, not the photos posted last 7 days.
Try do continue this Eloquent to count only photos which are posted last 7 days
