I’m trying to get a list of a single user plus his/her post in another table, while passing the user jwt token in the header.
public function getAuthenticatedUser()
{
try {
if (! $user = JWTAuth::parseToken()->authenticate()) {
return response()->json(['user_not_found'], 404);
}
} catch (Tymon\JWTAuth\Exceptions\TokenExpiredException $e) {
return response()->json(['token_expired'], $e->getStatusCode());
} catch (Tymon\JWTAuth\Exceptions\TokenInvalidException $e) {
return response()->json(['token_invalid'], $e->getStatusCode());
} catch (Tymon\JWTAuth\Exceptions\JWTException $e) {
return response()->json(['token_absent'], $e->getStatusCode());
}
// the token is valid and we have found the user via the sub claim
$user = auth()->user();
$userid = User::where('id', $user->id);
$return = UserResource::collection($userid);
return response()->json($return);
}
While doing it this way I get
BadMethodCallException: Call to undefined method Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Builder::mapInto() in file C:\xampp\htdocs\doc\vendor\laravel\framework\src\Illuminate\Support\Traits\ForwardsCalls.php on line 50
#0 C:\xampp\htdocs\doc\vendor\laravel\framework\src\Illuminate\Support\Traits\ForwardsCalls.php(36): Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Builder::throwBadMethodCallException('mapInto')
But if I do it this way;
$user = auth()->user();
$userid = User::find($user);
$return = UserResource::collection($userid);
return response()->json($return);
I get a response, but I get two users returned, instead of the exact user with the jwt token
When I return just auth()->user() I get the exact user of the jwt but without the post resource.
How can I get exact user plus the user’s exact posts
I see a problem in the following snippet.
User::where('id', $user->id);
where is a syntactic sugar for calling where on a query builder, it therefor returns a query builder, to retrieve the user this way.
User::where('id', $user->id)->first();
Secondly a helper is made for this exact case called find(), you can call statically on model classes.
$user = User::find($user->id);
EDIT
$return = UserResource::collection($userid);
Expects a Collection, therefor change it to a single resource.
$return = new UserResource($userid);
