Laravel 5.5 - Handle Error Exception for 'where'

In Laravel 5.5 I am trying to handle an error exception like this...

        try {
            $fruits = Fruit::where('fruit_id', $user->fruit->id)->get();
        }

        catch(ModelNotFoundException $e) {

            return Response::json(array(
                'error' => true,
                'status_code' => 400,
                'response' => 'fruit_id not found',
            ));

        }

But this is giving me a 'Trying to get propert of non-object' error

The same error handling works correctly for findorfail, how should I be doing this for the 'where' statement?

Tested on Laravel 5.7

try {
    $fruits = Fruit::where('fruit_id', $user->fruit->id)->get();
}

catch(\Exception $e) {

    abort(404);

}

I think you are passing wrong values in your where query in the try block.

try {
      $fruits = Fruit::where('fruit_id', $user->fruit->id)->get();
    }

Is it fruit_id or just id because you are querying it on fruit model itself.

Try the below code:

if ($user->fruit) {
    try {
        $fruits = Fruit::where('fruit_id', $user->fruit->id)->get();
    } catch(\Exception $e) {
        return Response::json(array(
            'error' => true,
            'status_code' => 400,
            'response' => 'fruit_id not found',
        ));
    }
} else {
    return "User Fruit doesn't exists!!";
}

Even though you got it working, I'd like to make mention of Laravel's Exception Handler.

The report method allows you to catch any exception type and customize how you wish to process and move forward. There is a report helper function as well which is globally accessible.

Furthermore, reportable and renderable exceptions allow you to create and customize your responses.

Thanks to some pointers in the comments I changed to

  try {
        $fruits = Fruit::where('fruit_id', $user->fruit->id)->get();
    }

    catch(\Exception $e) {

        return Response::json(array(
            'error' => true,
            'status_code' => 400,
            'response' => 'fruit_id not found',
        ));

    }

All is now working now I am catching the correct exception
