Nested relationship access with Laravel 8 - laravel-blade

This is the problem. I have a booking table. It's properties are as follows
-id
-path_id
-start_time
The path table is as follows
-id
-car_id
-fare
-start_location
-end_location
the car table
-id
-plate_number
-year_of_manufacture
-model
I have a Laravel application where the booking details need to be displayed.
The models have the relations described as
BookingDetails model:
public function car()
{
return $this->belongsTo(Car::class);
}
public function path()
{
return $this->belongsTo(Path::class);
}
The controller gets the details with,
BookingDetails:with('route')->get();
I know I can use an if statement with the above and get the car plate number.
But is there a way I can get it with relations in Laravel?
Thanks.

I think you have failed to improvise here.
Did you try this?
Assuming what you need is the car plate number,
You could,
$details = BookingDetails:with('route')->get();
in the blade,
$details->route->car->plate_number
Check this and reply. And don't forget to mark as answer if found useful.

Where to put function/method to test result of SQL Query

I continue to struggle with Symfony in regards to where to put some logic and functions.
In this case, I have a simple query. I want to know how many "Profiles" depend on an address.
the query:
SELECT count(*)
FROM beneficiary_profile AS bp
JOIN person AS p ON bp.beneficiary_id = p.id
JOIN contact_address AS ca ON p.contact_address_id = ca.id
WHERE ca.id = 2108 -- address id
the poor way of doing this [in my controller] with entity methods is this
$dependant = 0;
foreach ($address->getPeople() as $person) {
if ($person->getBeneficiaryProfile() !== null) {
$dependant++;
}
}
ultimately, this serves as a flag to print a warning about editing a dependent address record.
My first thought was to add a new method to the entity, $address->isDependent() that would return bool based on ($count > 1) but this would require me to get the entity repository from the entity.
Soon there will be a whole host of logic to go with unlinking then deletion (or not) to prevent orphan records. The logic is not as simple as cascading as there can be many people between the address and profile. there is a house record in the mix as well.
Should I just build my query in the address repository, then set the flag in the controller? (twig reads the flag and displays the warring or not)
Entity repository is the class which holds all your queries to database related to some entity, in your case it is address. So, yes, you should create new method in AddressRepository and use where you need.
Not sure what you mean by code reuse, you can get repository almost everywhere in symfony classes. So, you write something like
$count = $this->getDoctrine()
->getRepository(ContactAddress::class)
->getDependencyCount($address->getId());
And use this $count variable in your code. As I already said it is simple and clear.
And in symfony4 you can inject even the repository in your controller, so code can be reduced to something like:
public function __construct(AddressRepository $repo)
{
$this->repo = $repo;
}
public function someAction()
{
$count = $this->repo->getDependencyCount($address->getId());
}

sort has_many by has_one relation in silverstripe

I've got three DataObjects in Silverstripe 3.1: an Issue, a Vote, and a Voter. Issues have many Votes; Votes have one Voter and one Issue. On my Issue_show page, I want to show all that Issue's Votes, sorted by Voter's Name.
The function in the Issue looks like this:
public function MyVotes() {
return $this->Votes();
}
But I can't figure out how to access the Voter's Name to sort by it. Presumably, it should be something like
public function MyVotes() {
return $this->Votes()->sort('Voter.Name');
}
but that throws an error. What step am I missing?
For a has_one relation you need to add the ID suffix to the fieldname. Also, relation casting in DataList->sort() unfortunately does only work with an array.
public function MyVotes() {
return $this->Votes()->sort(array('VoterID.Name'=>'ASC'));
}
You could also handle sorting in the template something like this:
<% loop Votes.Sort('VoterID.Name') %>
...
This hasn't been tested but pretty sure that should work

Dynamics AX 2009: Add a field to InventJournalTrans, propagate to InventTrans

I need to add an additional field to InventJournalTrans, that after posting will show up in the InventTrans table. The field is a reference column to a record in another table. What method(s) do I need to modify to make this behavior happen?
Currently, I have already added the fields to both tables and modified the Form to allow the user to enter and save the new field. I just can't seem to find the bottom of the rabbit hole on where the actual posting to InventTrans is occurring.
Ideally, it should just be a:
inventTrans.ReasonRefRecId = inventJournalTrans.ReasonRefRecId;
assignment statement before the
inventTrans.insert();
call. Anybody have a clue on where this is at?
The link above does contain the solution -- I have included the code from that page in case that page disappears or no longer becomes available. Thanks to gl00mie for answering on that site and providing this answer.
You should create a new InventMovement method like this:
public MyNewFieldType myNewField()
{
return MyNewFieldType::DefaultValue; // suppose your new field is an enum
}
Then modify \Classes\InventMovement\initInventTransFromBuffer
void initInventTransFromBuffer(InventTrans _inventTrans, InventMovement _movement_orig)
{
// ... append this line to the end of whatever else is already in this method
_inventTrans.MyNewField = this.myNewField();
}
And finally overload the new method in the InventMov_Journal class:
public MyNewFieldType myNewField()
{
return inventJournalTrans.MyNewField;
}

attaching an entity with a related entity to a new entity framework context

Im trying to get my head around attaching an entity with a related entity to a new context when I want to update the entity.
I have a Person Table (Generalised to Personnel), which has a LanguageID field. This field is linked as a FK via the EF to another table Language with LanguageID as the primary key (1-M). I need to update a particular Persons language preference, however, the relationship seems to remain linked to the old context as i get a "Object cannot be referenced by multiple instances of IEntityChangeTracker" error on the line marked below. Is there any way to attach the Language entity to the new context as a relationship of the Personnel (Person) entity???
The entities were not detached in the orginal GetPersonnel() method which uses an .Include() method to return the PreferredLanguage
PreferredLanguage is the NavigationProperty name on the Person table...
public static void UpdateUser(Personnel originalUser, Personnel newUser )
{
using (AdminModel TheModel = new AdminModel())
{
((IEntityWithChangeTracker)originalUser).SetChangeTracker(null);
((IEntityWithChangeTracker)originalUser.PreferredLanguage).SetChangeTracker(null);
TheModel.Attach(originalUser);--Error Line
TheModel.ApplyPropertyChanges("Person", newUser);
TheModel.SaveChanges();
}
}
Thanks
Sean
To avoid these sort of problems you should make GetPersonnel() do a NoTracking query.
I.e.
ctx.Person.MergeOption = MergeOption.NoTracking;
// and then query as per normal.
This way you can get a graph of connected entities (assuming you use .Include()) that is NOT attached. Note this won't work if you try to manually detach entities, because doing so schreds your graph.
Hope this helps

How can I identify an Axapta class Name from the class ID?

Please can someone help me make sense of the Batch madness?
I'm trying to debug an Axapta 3.0 implementation that has about 50 Batch Jobs. Most of the batched classes do not implement the description() method, so when you look at the Batch List form (Basic>>Inquiries>>Batch list) the description field is blank. You can see the Batch Group and the Start Time, etc. but you can't tell which class is actually being called.
The Batch table contains a hidden field called ClassNum which identifies the ID property of the class. Can anyone tell me how I can find the corresponding class from the ID? Once I've identified the culprits I can add descriptions.
I tried using the standard Find function on the AOT but it doesn't pick them up.
Any suggestions would be most welcome!
Many thanks,
Mike
Jay's answer provides two comprehensive solutions.
I've just discovered that the global class ClassId2Name does the same thing, so you can simply have:
display str Classname()
{
return ClassId2Name(this.ClassNum);
}
There atleast two ways to do this, you can use the DictClass class:
display ClassName className()
{
DictClass dictClass = new DictClass(this.ClassNum);
;
if(dictClass!=null)
return dictClass.name();
return '';
}
Or using the UtilIdElements table:
display ClassName className()
{
UtilIdElements utilIdElements;
;
select utilIdElements where utilIdElements.id==this.ClassNum && utilIdElements.recordType==UtilElementType::Class;
if(utilIdElements)
return utilIdElements.name;
return '';
}
Alternative to get ClassName if ClassNum is not available.
display str Classname()
{
return classId2Name(ClassIdGet(this));
}
