I'm making a step program and therefore I wanted to use sessions. I have a form which allows the user to fill in some information and then the input values will be put in a session array called "basic_settins" like this
public function saveSettings(Request $request, Product $products)
{
$request->session()->push('basic_settings', $request->input());
return redirect('/themes');
}
But how can I get a specific item from that array and display it for instance in my view? By using something like this: {{ Session::get('store_name') }}
in an input field.
The view looks like this:
@extends('layouts.app')
@section('content')
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<form method="POST" action="{{ route('saveBasicSettings') }}">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<button class="btn btn-primary mb-3 float-right">Next</button>
</div>
</div>
<div class="card z-depth-2" style="border-radius: 7px;">
<div class="card-body">
<input type="hidden" name="user_id" value="{{ Auth::user()->id }}">
{{ csrf_field() }}
<div class="form-group">
<label for="store_name">Store name</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Store name" id="store_name" name="store_name" value="{{ Session::get('store_name') }}" required>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="company name">Company name</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Company name" id="company_name" name="company_name" value="{{ Session::get('company_name') }}" required>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="company_tel">Company phonenumber</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Company Phonenumber" id="company_tel" name="company_tel" value="{{ Session::get('company_tel') }}" required>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
@endsection
When I dd the request by doing this: $data = $request->session()->all();
and then dd($data);
I get the following result:
How can I make this work? Thanks in advance!

When you're using push()
, an array will be created, so you need to do something like this:
{{ session('basic_settings.0.company_name') }}
Or:
{{ session('basic_settings')[0]['company_name'] }}
But I would recommend you to save the data with:
{{ session(['basic_settings' => request()->all()]) }}
Then you'll be able to read it with:
{{ session('basic_settings.company_name') }}
