This problem occur due to wrong spell or undefined database name. Make sure your database name, table name and all column name is same as from phpmyadmin
You should change/add in your PostController: (and change PostsController to PostController)
public function create()
{
$categories = Category::all();
return view('create',compact('categories'));
}
public function store(Request $request)
{
$post = new Posts;
$post->title = $request->get('title'); // CHANGE THIS
$post->body = $request->get('body'); // CHANGE THIS
$post->save(); // ADD THIS
$post->categories()->attach($request->get('categories_id')); // CHANGE THIS
return redirect()->route('posts.index'); // PS ON THIS ONE
}
PS: using route() means you have named your route as such
Route::get('example', 'ExampleController@getExample')->name('getExample');
UPDATE
The comments above are also right, change your 'Posts' Model to 'Post'
You can add this in Post Model,
public function categories()
{
return $this->belongsToMany('App\Category','category_post','post_id','category_id');
}
category_post
indicate the table you want to use.
post_id
indicate the column where you want to store the posts id.
category_id
indicate the column where you want to store the categories id.
Schema::table
is to modify an existing table, use Schema::create
to create new.
try checking in the app if you are using the tables before it's created such as appServiceProvider.php
you might be calling the table without being created it, if you are, comment it then run php artisan migrate.
The simplest thing to do is, change the default table name assigned for the model. Simply put following code,
protected $table = 'category_posts';
instead of protected $table = 'posts';
then it'll do the trick.
However, if you refer Laravel documentation you'll find the answer. Here what it says,
By convention, the "snake case", plural name of the class(model) will be used as the table name unless another name is explicitly specified
Better to you use artisan command to make model and the migration file at the same time, use the following command,
php artisan make:model Test --migration
This will create a model class and a migration class in your Laravel project. Let's say it created following files,
Test.php
2018_06_22_142912_create_tests_table.php
If you look at the code in those two files you'll see,
2018_06_22_142912_create_tests_table.php files' up function,
public function up()
{
Schema::create('tests', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->timestamps();
});
}
Here it automatically generated code with the table name of 'tests' which is the plural name of that class which is in Test.php file.
If you're facing this error but your issue is different and you're tired of searching for a long time then this might help you.
If you have changed your database and updated .env file and still facing same issue then you should check C:\xampp\htdocs{your-project-name}\bootstrap\cache\config.php file and replace or remove the old database name and other changed items.
Laravel tries to guess the name of the table, you have to specify it directly so that it does not give you that error..
Try this:
class NameModel extends Model {
public $table = 'name_exact_of_the_table';
I hope that helps!
The main problem for causing your table unable to migrate, is that you have running query on your "AppServiceProvider.php" try to check your serviceprovider
and disable code for the meantime, and run php artisan migrate
For solving your Base Table or view not found error you can do As @Alexey Mezenin said that change table name category_post
to category_posts
,
but if you don't want to change the name like in my case i am using inventory
table so i don't want to suffix it by s
so i will provide table name in model as protected $table = 'Table_name_as_you_want'
and then there is no need to change table name:
Change your Model of the module in which you are getting error for example:
<?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class Inventory extends Model
{
protected $table = 'inventory';
protected $fillable = [
'supply', 'order',
];
}
you have to provide table name in model then it will not give error.
