#Part3 laravel 5 Blog Tutorial : Restful Controllers & Routing System

Create Blog Apps in Laravel 5.3 - To continue or CRUD / create blog apps in laravel, this lesson will discuss about Restful Controllers & Routing System in Blog project.

at the previews lessons, we has create database and connect it form laravel project, if you still confused, just read #Part2 laravel 5 Blog Tutorial : Database & Migration.

Restful Controllers & Routing System
To create new Controllers in our Laravel Project, we use 'Artisan Command' :

php artisan make:controller BlogController --resource

--resource syntax mean, we will create a controller (BlogController.php) with fully configuration/function like the Index functions, Store function, Create function, Show function, Edit function, and more.

This is default our Controller

BlogController.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

use App\Http\Requests;

class BlogController extends Controller
{
    /**
     * Display a listing of the resource.
     *
     * @return IlluminateHttpResponse
     */
    public function index()
    {
        // 
    }

    /**
     * Show the form for creating a new resource.
     *
     * @return IlluminateHttpResponse
     */
    public function create()
    {
        //
    }

    /**
     * Store a newly created resource in storage.
     *
     * @param  IlluminateHttpRequest  $request
     * @return IlluminateHttpResponse
     */
    public function store(Request $request)
    {
        //
    }

    /**
     * Display the specified resource.
     *
     * @param  int  $id
     * @return IlluminateHttpResponse
     */
    public function show($id)
    {
        //
    }

    /**
     * Show the form for editing the specified resource.
     *
     * @param  int  $id
     * @return IlluminateHttpResponse
     */
    public function edit($id)
    {
        //
    }

    /**
     * Update the specified resource in storage.
     *
     * @param  IlluminateHttpRequest  $request
     * @param  int  $id
     * @return IlluminateHttpResponse
     */
    public function update(Request $request, $id)
    {
        //
    }

    /**
     * Remove the specified resource from storage.
     *
     * @param  int  $id
     * @return IlluminateHttpResponse
     */
    public function destroy($id)
    {
        //
    }
}

Next, create new routes, we has discuss about routes, please read for more detail Routing Basics in Laravel.

Web.php

<?php

/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Web Routes
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| This file is where you may define all of the routes that are handled
| by your application. Just tell Laravel the URIs it should respond
| to using a Closure or controller method. Build something great!
|
*/

Route::get('/', function () {
    return view('welcome');
});

// we will ad new route into middleware group

Route::group(['middleware' => ['web']], function() {
  Route::resource('blog','BlogController');  
});

composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel web

Intructions :

1. we will create Laravel project using Composer
2. web is your project name

Connect with Database

Next, we will create connection with our database, hasbeen posted on How to Connect Database in laravel 5.3

in your .ENV file, modife your connection variable, and configure it with yours.

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=laravel_blog
DB_USERNAME=root
DB_PASSWORD=

Database Migration

Next, we need to create tables and columns in our database, using Migration in Laravel we will create a table or a columns with very easy, read Database Migration & Schema in Laravel 5.3

Create migration following by this command :

php artisan make:migration create_blog_table

After success, your migration file will be strored on database\migrations\2016_09_13_113838_crate_blog_table.php

Add some function following by this source code

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
use Illuminat\eDatabase\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;

class CrateBlogTable extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('blog_post', function (Blueprint $table) {
        $table->increments('id');
        $table->string('title');
        $table->string('description');
        $table->timestamps();
      });
    }

    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        Schema::drop('blog_post');
    }
}

Next, execute our migration scheme following by this command :

php artisan migrate

Now, you have a database "laravel_blog", with table name "blog_post" and some column name like, id, title,description, and time stamp in your database.

At the previews lessons about Laravel 5.3 we has learned How to Create File Upload in laravel 5.3 and How to use Validation in Laravel 5.3, just learn it before try this one.

Send Email using Gmail SMTP in laravel 5.3

now, this lessons we will create simple apps that we can send email using smtp gmail.com, by following this syntax:

Mail::send(['text'=>'text.view'], $data, $callback);

First, we need to configurate our gmail account to Laravel project, that is on ".ENV" file, costum and configure with your gmail account :

.env file

MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=smtp.gmail.com
MAIL_PORT=587
MAIL_USERNAME=youremail@gmail.com
MAIL_PASSWORD=yourpassword
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=tls

Next, we need to clear our cache and restar Laravel Server by following this command :

Clear cache

php artisan config:cache

Next, we will create new controller to send email with Laravel by following this command :

Create new Controller

php artisan make:controller MailController

next, we will create three function in MailController.php
MailController.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

use App\Http\Requests;

// we will use Mail namespace
use Mail;

class MailController extends Controller
{
    // first, we create function for send Basics email
    public function basic_email(){
        $data=['name'=>'Harison matondang'];
        Mail::send(['text'=>'mail'], $data, function($message){
            $message->to('harisonmatondang@gmail.com','Harison Matondang')->subject('Send Mail from Laravel with Basics Email');
            $message->from('nabilaauliaputri29@gmail.com','Nabila');
        });

    }

    //create new function to send HTML email
    public function html_email(){
      $data=['name'=>'Harison matondang'];
      Mail::send(['text'=>'mail'], $data, function($message){
          $message->to('harisonmatondang@gmail.com','Harison Matondang')->subject('Send Mail from Laravel with HTML Email');
          $message->from('nabilaauliaputri29@gmail.com','Nabila');
      });
      echo 'HTML Email was sent!';
    }

    //create new function to send mail with attachment Mail
      public function attachment_email(){
        $data=['name'=>'Harison matondang'];
        Mail::send(['text'=>'mail'], $data, function($message){
            $message->to('harisonmatondang@gmail.com','Harison Matondang')->subject('Send Mail from Laravel with HTML Email');

        });
        echo 'HTML Email was sent!';
      }
}

Next, create new view, that folder stored on resources/views and rename it with "mail.blade.php"

mail.blade.php

Hallo, {{ $name }}
i send a mail

Next create new routes

web.php

Route::get('/basicemail', 'MailController@basic_email');
Route::get('/htmlemail', 'MailController@html_email');
Route::get('/attachemail', 'MailController@attachment_email');

After finished, try to access your project with browser by following this URL :

http://localhost:8080/basicemail
http://localhost:8080/htmlemail
http://localhost:8080/attachemail

If you got some error like about Security by your gmail account, just setting and Allow less secure applications, by follwing this URL https://myaccount.google.com/security#activity and you will solved your problem.

Laravel 5 Tutorial : How to use Validation in Laravel 5.3

Laravel 5.3 - Validation, Validation in laravel 5.3 or at the all applications is the most important aspect while designing of them. It validates the incoming data. By default, base controller class uses a Validates Requests trait which provides a convenient method to validate incoming HTTP requests with a variety of powerful validation rules.

At the last Lessons, we have learn about Forms & HTML Class in laravel 5.3 and localization for Multiple languages in laravel 5.3

How to use Validation in Laravel 5.3

In your Laravel 5.3 project, create new Controller using Artisan CLI following this command

php artisan make:controller ValidationController

your new controller ValidationController has created and stored on app\Http\Controllers\Validation.php

add some function in our ValidationController.php

ValidationController.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

use App\Http\Requests;

class ValidationController extends Controller
{
    // create new function to show the form login as a our index
    public function ShowForm(){
      return view('loginex');
    }
    // create function for our Validation
    public function ValidateForm(Request $request){
      print_r($request->all());
      $this->validate($request,[
          'username'=>'required|max:10',
          'password'=>'required'
      ]);
    }
}

Now, create new views to show our Login form, that stored on resources\views, at the preview Lessons, we have learn about Authentication Login & Registration Form + Bootstrap in laravel 5.3.

loginex.blade.php

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Validate Login</title>
  </head>
  <body>

    @if (count($errors) > 0)
      <div class="error">
        <ul>
          @foreach($errors->all() as $error)
            <li>{{ $error }}</li>
          @endforeach
        </ul>
      </div>
    @endif

    <?php
      echo Form::open(['url'=>'/validation']);
     ?>
     <table border="1">
       <tr>
         <td>
           Login
         </td>
       </tr>
       <tr>
         <td>
           username
         </td>
         <td>
           <?php echo Form::text('username'); ?>
         </td>
       </tr>
       <tr>
         <td>
           Password
         </td>
         <td>
           <?php echo Form::password('password'); ?>
         </td>
       </tr>
       <tr>
         <td>
           Password
         </td>
         <td>
           <?php echo Form::submit('login'); ?>
         </td>
       </tr>
     </table>
     <?php echo Form::close(); ?>
  </body>
</html>

Next, create new routes that stored on \routes\web.php

web.php

Route::get('/validation', 'ValidationController@ShowForm');
Route::post('/validation', 'ValidationController@ValidateForm');

Next, try to access our validation on your browser following this command

http://localhost:8080/validation
