1 year ago admin Laravel

In the second part of this tutorial, we will see how to notify the user when his post is removed by the admin, next we will display the user notifications.


Trigger the notification

To trigger the notification we call the "notify" method inside the destroy method of our controller.

                                                        
                                                                                                                        
 public function destroy(Post $post)
 {
  //
  if(auth()->user()->isAdmin){
     $post->user->notify(new PostRemoved($post));
  }
        
  $post->delete();

  return redirect()->route('home')->with([
      'message' => 'Post deleted successfully'
  ]);
 }

Display user notifications

Next, to display user notifications you can use the "notifications" relationship.

                                                            
                                                                                                                                
foreach (auth()->user()->notifications as $notification) {
    echo $notification->title;
}

Display unread notifications

Next, to display unread notifications you can use the "unreadNotifications" relationship.

                                                            
                                                                                                                                
foreach (auth()->user()->unreadNotifications as $notification) {
    echo $notification->title;
}

Mark laravel notification as read

Next, to mark a Laravel notification as read you find it by id and you use the method "markAsRead" to mark it as read.

                                                            
                                                                                                                                
auth()->user()->unreadNotifications->where('id', $id)->markAsRead();

Count laravel notifications

Finally, to count the number of all notifications or only unread notifications use the "count" method.

                                                            
                                                                                                                                
auth()->user()->notifications->count();
auth()->user()->unreadNotifications->count();
