BadMethodCallException in Macroable.php line 81: - php

Question

I am trying to set up a relationship with a project I am working on. The error I get is:
BadMethodCallException in Macroable.php line 81:
Method Organization does not exist.
Here is my store method.
public function store(Request $request)
{
$calendar_event = new CalendarEvent();
$calendar_event->title = $request->input("title");
$calendar_event->start = $request->input("start");
$calendar_event->end = $request->input("end");
$calendar_event->is_all_day = $request->input("is_all_day");
$calendar_event->background_color = $request->input("background_color");
$request->Organization()->calendar()->save($calendar_event);
return redirect()->route('calendar_events.index')->with('message', 'Item created successfully.');
}
My relationship in my CalendarEvent model is set up like this
public function Organization()
{
return $this->belongsTo('App\Organization');
}
The relationship in my Organization model is set up like this
public function calendar()
{
return $this->hasMany('App\CalendarEvent');
}
Thank you for your help.

Answer 1

Did you setup a route model binding? And even with that setup, i don't think you can access the model just from the request, you need to setup a proper parameter for the model you want injected.
public function store(Request $request, YourModel $model) {
}
Or the problem is that you are trying to save on $request, when you need to do that on $calendar_event, like this:
$calendar_event->Organization()->calendar()->save($calendar_event);
