Undefined property: Illuminate\Support\Collection::$id in Laravel 5.2 - php

Question

I have a confusion and I need a help to solve.
I am trying to add a record to a table that depends on the initial record, it is an event log table related to the initial registration of a call record.
As I try to do this it is with an input hidden, but it does not receive the id and it generates the following error (Undefined property:Illuminate\Support\Collection::$id).
This is part of the view with the record button of the incidences.
#foreach ($data as $call)
<tr class="active">
<td align="center">{{ ++$i }}</td>
<td style="text-align: center">{{ $call->created_at->format('d - m - Y') }}</td>
<td>{{ $call->name }}</td>
<td>{{ $call->last_name }}</td>
<td align="center">
#if($call->type == 1)
<span class="label label-info">Saliente</span>
#else
<span class="label label-success">Entrante</span>
#endif
</td>
<td>{{ $call->phone }}</td>
<td>{{ $call->movil }}</td>
<td align="center">
<a class="btn btn-info btn-xs" href="{{ route('calls.show',$call->id) }}" data-toggle="tooltip" rel="tooltip" data-placement="top" title="Detalle de llamada"> <i class="material-icons">info_outline</i> </a>
#permission('role-edit')
<a class="btn btn-primary btn-xs" href="{{ route('calls.edit',$call->id) }}" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="top" title="Editar registro de llamada"> <i class="material-icons">create</i> </a>
#endpermission
<a class="btn btn-warning btn-xs" href="{{ route('comments.create', $call->id) }}" data-toggle="tooltip" rel="tooltip" data-placement="top" title="Registrar incidencia"> <i class="material-icons">event</i> </a>
{!! Form::open(['method' => 'DELETE','route' => ['calls.destroy', $call->id],'style'=>'display:inline']) !!}
#permission('role-delete')
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-danger btn-xs" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="top" title="Eliminar llamada"><i class="material-icons delete-white">delete</i></button>
#endpermission
{!! Form::close() !!}
</td>
</tr>
#endforeach
This is part of the view where the issue is logged, but I need to pass the id in the hidden field.
{!! Form::open(array('route' => 'comments.store','method' => 'POST')) !!}
<div class="col-md-12 col-xs-12">
<div class="input-group">
<div class="col-md-4 col-xs-4">
{!! Form::select('call_id', $calls, null, ['class' => 'form-control', 'placeholder' => 'Seleccionar cliente']) !!} <!--This is the select-->
{{ Form::hidden('call_id', $calls->id) }} <!--This is the hidden mode-->
</div>
<div class="col-md-8 col-xs-8">
{!! Form::text('name', null, array('placeholder' => 'Registrar incidencia','class' => 'form-control')) !!}
</div>
<span class="input-group-btn">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-success btn-xs" data-toggle="tooltip" rel="tooltip" data-placement="top" title="Guardar">
<i class="material-icons">save</i>
</button>
</span>
</div>
</div>
{!! Form::close() !!}
The error generated by the view is:
Undefined property: Illuminate\Support\Collection::$id
These are my methods for the controller (CommentController).
public function create()
{
$calls = Call::orderBy('id', 'asc')->lists('name', 'id');
return view('comments.create', compact('calls'));
}
public function store(Request $request)
{
//return $request->all();
$this->validate($request, [
'name' => 'required|unique:categories|max:255',
]);
$comments = Comment::create([
'name' => $request->get('name'),
'call_id' => $request->get('call_id'),
]);
return redirect()->route('comments.index')
->with('success','Comentario agregado correctamente!!!');
}
This is my route method.
Route::resource('comments','CommentController');
This is the call log view, when clicking the orange button calls the comment view to record an issue.
This is the view of record of incidents, here I have the dropdown but ideally instead of a dropdown can receive the ID of the record you select from the previous view.
Someone who can guide me, since I have used several methods and I have not been able to solve it.

Answer 1

Solve the confusion and method as follows:
The button to create the incidence in the view I defined it as follows:
#foreach ($data as $call)
<a class="btn btn-warning btn-xs" href="{{ route('comments.create', ['id' => $call->id]) }}" data-toggle="tooltip" rel="tooltip" data-placement="top" title="Registrar incidencia"> <i class="material-icons">event</i> </a>
#endforeach
In the create method of CommentController I structured it as follows:
public function create($id)
{
$calls = DB::table('calls')->find($id);
return view('comments.create', compact('calls'));
}
The store method of CommentController I structured it as follows:
public function store(Request $request)
{
//return $request->all();
$rules = [
'call_id' => 'required',
'comments_name' => 'required',
];
$messages = [
'call_id.required' => 'Debe seleccionar un código de llamada',
'comments_name.required' => 'Debe ingresar incidencia',
];
$this->validate($request, $rules, $messages);
$comments = Comment::create([
'comments_name' => $request->get('comments_name'),
'call_id' => $request->get('call_id'),
]);
return redirect()->route('calls.index')
->with('success','Incidencia agregada correctamente!!!');
}
The labels in the view create incidents are as follows:
{!! Form::open(array('route' => 'comments.store','method' => 'POST')) !!}
<div class="col-md-12 col-xs-12">
<div class="input-group">
<div class="col-md-12 col-xs-12">
{!! Form::text('comments_name', null, array('placeholder' => 'Nombres','class' => 'form-control')) !!}
{{ Form::hidden('call_id', $calls->id) }}
</div>
<span class="input-group-btn">
<a class="btn btn-warning btn-xs" href="{{ route('calls.index') }}" data-toggle="tooltip" rel="tooltip" data-placement="top" title="Retornar">
<i class="material-icons">arrow_back</i>
</a>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-success btn-xs" data-toggle="tooltip" rel="tooltip" data-placement="top" title="Guardar">
<i class="material-icons">save</i>
</button>
</span>
</div>
</div>
{!! Form::close() !!}
And I defined the following route in the routes file:
Route::get('comments/create/{id}', [
'middleware' => 'auth',
'as' => 'comments.create',
'uses' => 'CommentController#create'
]);
This way you can create a call log with a list of many incidents.
If this method should be improved please give me the recommendations, but it was the way in which I could do it.
Thanks #RobFonseca and #CarlosAdames for your comments and help.

The lists method returns a collection instance. You need to convert the Collection into a plain array using the all method.
In your controller try this:
$calls = Call::orderBy('id', 'asc')->lists('name', 'id')->all();
You can read more about it in the following link The lists Method
