Saving application/json with SLIM 3 and Eloquent - php

Question

So, when getting an Object from the database i do something like this in the Object Controller:
public function show(Request $request, Response $response, array $args)
{
$id = (int)$args['oid'];
$object = $this->object->getObjectById($id);
$data = $this->fractal->createData(new Item($object, new ObjectTransformer()))->toArray();
return $response->withJson($data);
}
I'm using fractal to transform the database structure to the needed JSON format and Eloquent for the Database access.
Then i'm getting something like this:
{
"propertyId": 12345,
"created": "2017-12-29T19:25:23+01:00",
"modified": "2018-06-07T17:28:04+02:00",
"published": true,
"market": [
"buy"
],
"text": {
"title": "Object Title"
}
}
I'm sending the exact same JSON string (without the ID) via Postman as application/json.
When trying to save a new object i'm doing this in the Controller:
public function store(Request $request, Response $response, array $args)
{
$object = new Object($request->getParsedBody());
//dd($request->getParsedBody());
$object->save(); // nothing happens, just an empty entry
}
The Object Class
class Object extends \Comp\Models\Mapper
{
protected $database;
protected $hidden = array('created_by', 'checked_out', 'checked_out_time', 'modified_by', 'access', 'params', 'oid', 'video');
protected $casts = [
'published' => 'boolean',
'featured' => 'boolean',
'rating' => 'float',
];
protected $dates = ['created','modified'];
public $timestamps = false;
/*protected $fillable = [
'shop_id','vendor_id','name','address','pincode','phone','shop_type'
];*/
public function __construct( $database)
{
$this->setTable('objects');
$this->database = $database;
}
}
The "Mapper" Class
<?php
namespace Comp\Models;
use Interop\Container\ContainerInterface;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
abstract class Mapper extends Model {
protected $db;
public function __construct(ContainerInterface $container) {
}
public function removeEmptyElements(array $array)
{
}
}
I don't know if and how to do a transformation again, to map the structure for the Eloquent ORM.
Update 1:
I just spotted this:
https://github.com/tuupola/slim-todo-backend/blob/master/app.php
So do i need something like Spot and Fractal together? I wanted to have a central Transformer and not multiple places for output and input. And also i use Eloquent and cant use another ORM...
Update 2:
Added Object Model and Mapper Class
Any ideas are very appreciated.

We can insert it very easily.I did this .I use slim 3.0 frame work and laravel Eloquent
Here i explain detailed structure of my project
First you need to install Eloquent data base driver and create models
<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
include 'dbboot.php';
use User\Models\User;
$app = new \Slim\App([
'settings' => [
'displayErrorDetails' => true,
'debug' => true,
'whoops.editor' => 'sublime',
]
]);
$app->get('/user', function ($request, $response, $args) {
$_user = new User();
$users = $_user->all();
$payload = [];
$payload['user']=$users;
return $response->withStatus(200)->withJson($payload);
});
$app->post('/user', function($request,$response,$args) {
$_user = new User();
$user = $request->getParsedBodyParam('userinfo', '');
$user_id=$_user :: insertGetId($user);
$payload = [];
$payload['user_id']=$user_id;
$payload['message']="Insertion success";
return $response->withStatus(200)->withJson($payload);
});
// Run app
$app->run();
