Why am I unable to NOT use timestamps in Laravel?

Time:01-09

I have these:

posts table

public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('posts', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->id();
            $table->string('title', 64);
            $table->string('teaser', 128)->nullable();
            $table->text('content', 50000);
            $table->timestamps();
        });
    }

posts model

use HasFactory;

    protected $fillable = ['title', 'teaser', 'content'];

    public function tags()
    {
        return $this->belongsToMany(Tag::class, 'post_tag', 'post_id', 'tag_id');
    }

tag table

public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('tags', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->id();
            $table->string('text', 32);
        });
    }

tag model

use HasFactory;
    public $timestamps = false;
    public $fillable = ['text'];

    public function posts()
    {
        return $this->belongsToMany(Post::class, 'post_tag', 'tag_id', 'post_id');
    }

post_tag table

public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('post_tag', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->id();
            $table->unsignedInteger('post_id');
            $table->unsignedInteger('tag_id');
        });
    }

When I try to create a new post with tags, I get this error:

SQLSTATE[22007]: Invalid datetime format: 1366 Incorrect integer value: 'test' for column `laravel`.`post_tag`.`tag_id` at row 1
INSERT INTO
  `post_tag` (`post_id`, `tag_id`)
VALUES
  (31, test)

This is how I'm trying to do it:

public function store(PostFormValidation $request)
    {
        $newpost = Post::create($request->validated());
        $newpost->tags()->sync($request->tags);
        return redirect(route('home'));
    }

But why is it complaining about the timestamps, when I removed them from the migration and specified that I'm not using any in the model too? What am I missing?

The submitted "tags" is a multiple select.

CodePudding user response:

You tyining instert in field tag_id 'test' word, but tag_id unsignedbiginteger

CodePudding user response:

I think your error is in:

$newpost->tags()->sync($request->tags);

I would recommend looking at this laravel doc to see that the format should be:

$newpost->tags()->sync([1, 2, 3]);

Or:

$newpost->tags()->sync([1 => ['expires' => true], 2, 3]);
