In the last post, we added the ability to list all products, search with Scout and Spatie Query Builder, the ability to delete products. This part 6.3 of the on building an ecommerce website in Laravel from start to deployment.
In this post we will continue to add the ability to edit products.
Let's dive in
Head over to Admin\ProductController and edit the edit action and tell laravel to return the edit page
/**
* Show the form for editing the specified resource.
*
* @param Product $product
* @return Renderable
*/
public function edit(Product $product)
{
$categories = Category::all();
return view('admin.products.edit', [
'product' => $product,
'categories' => $categories
]);
}
Then let's edit the admin.products.edit view, the markup will be the same as the create view except this time we pre populate the fields and submit the form to the update action
Add the following snippet to your edit view
@extends('layouts.app')
@section('title')
Edit Product
@endsection
@section('content')
<section class="section">
<div class="section-header">
<div class="section-header-back">
<a href="{{ route('admin.products.index') }}"
class="btn btn-icon"><i class="fas fa-arrow-left"></i></a>
</div>
<h1>
Edit Product
</h1>
<div class="section-header-breadcrumb">
<div class="breadcrumb-item active"><a href="#">Dashboard</a></div>
<div class="breadcrumb-item"><a href="{{ route('admin.products.index') }}">Products</a></div>
<div class="breadcrumb-item">

</div>
</div>
<div class="section-body">

Next, we edit the UpdateProductRequest to add some validation and authorizations to the request before it reaches the controller
Edit the UpdateProductRequest to the following
<?php
namespace App\Http\Requests;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Http\FormRequest;
class UpdateProductRequest extends FormRequest
{
/**
* Determine if the user is authorized to make this request.
*
* @return bool
*/
public function authorize(): bool
{
return $this->user()->can('update', $this->route('product'));
}
/**
* Prepare input for validation
*
* @return void
*/
protected function prepareForValidation(): void
{
$this->merge([
'track_quantity' =>
$this->has('track_quantity') &&
$this->input('track_quantity') == 'on',
'sell_out_of_stock' =>
$this->has('sell_out_of_stock') &&
$this->input('sell_out_of_stock') == 'on',
]);
}
/**
* Get the validation rules that apply to the request.
*
* @return array<string, mixed>
*/
public function rules(): array
{
return [
'name' => 'required|string|max:255',
'description' => 'required|string',
'sku' =>
'sometimes|nullable|string|unique:products,sku,' .
$this->route('product')->id,
'track_quantity' => 'sometimes|nullable|boolean',
'quantity' => 'required_if:track_quantity,true|nullable|int',
'sell_out_of_stock' => 'required_if:track_quantity,true|boolean',
'category_id' => 'required|int|exists:categories,id',
'price' => 'required|numeric|min:0',
'cost' => 'sometimes|nullable|numeric',
'discounted_price' => 'sometimes|nullable|numeric',
'status' => 'required|string|in:active,draft,review',
'images' => 'sometimes|nullable|array',
'images.*' => 'string',
];
}
}
So on the authorize method we check if the user authorized to update products, we don't anyone just products if they are not authorized.
The prepareForValidation method simply turns the input checks ("on") into real booleans and then your everyday validation on the rules method
If validation passes let's make the actual updating in the Admin\ProdocutController.
Edit the update method and put the following snippet
/**
* Update the specified resource in storage.
*
* @param UpdateProductRequest $request
* @param Product $product
* @return RedirectResponse
* @throws Exception
*/
public function update(UpdateProductRequest $request, Product $product)
{
$product->update($request->safe()->except(['images']));
collect($request->validated('images'))->each(function ($image) use (
$product,
) {
$product->attachMedia(new File(storage_path('app/' . $image)));
Storage::delete($image);
});
return to_route('admin.products.index')->with(
'success',
'Product was successfully updated',
);
}
First we get the validated fields from the request except the images key and pass that to the update method of the product model
If there were images uploaded with this request we loop through all of them and then attach them to this product
Lastly, we return the user to the products index page with a toast message.
This is all we need to be able to edit products and in the upcoming tutorials we will add the ability to create product variations such as color, size etc
As I was using the products section of the ecommerce website I noticed a few issues if a user doesn't include optional fields which we will rectify in the next post
