I'm trying to update some data in Model using API in Laravel and Vue.js but I can't do this because FormData() is empty, I'm checking the data from formdata using the code:

for (var value of formdata.values()) {
        console.log(value);
      }

and it was empty.

I get this result:

this is my update function in vue page

    getFile: function (event) {
      this.image = event.target.files[0];
    },
    updateData: function () {
      let config = {
        header: {
          "Content-Type": "multipart/form-data",
        },
      };
      let formdata = new FormData();
      formdata.append("user_id", this.userId);
      formdata.append("image", this.image);
      formdata.append("name", this.name);
      formdata.append("price", this.price);
      formdata.append("details", this.details);
      formdata.append("subject", this.subject);
      formdata.append("_method", "PUT");
      for (var value of formdata.values()) {
        console.log(value);
      }

      axios
        .post(
          "http://localhost:8000/api/edit-pro/"   this.products.id,
          formdata,
          config
        )
        .then(() => {
          //this.$router.push("/control-panel", response);
        });
    },

controller method where I should update data

public function updatePro(Request $request, $id)
    {
        $product = Product::find($id);

        $product->name = $request->name;
        $product->price = $request->price;
        $product->details = $request->details;
        $product->subject = $request->subject;
        
        $file = $request->file('image');
        $fileName = $file->image;
        $destinationPath = public_path() . '/images';
        $file->move($destinationPath, $fileName);
        $product->image =  $fileName;
        
        try {
            $product->save();
            return ["msg" => "The product was updated successfully"];
        } catch (Exception $error) {
            return [
                "msg" => "The product was not updated successfully",
                "error" => $error,
            ];
        }
    }

HTML with vue.js where I use object which I send to function

<form
              id="main-contact-form"
              
              name="contact-form"

CodePudding user response：

Its look like you have a property products and that property have the values you are trying to get.

so instead doing:

formdata.append("image", this.image);
formdata.append("name", this.name);
formdata.append("price", this.price);
formdata.append("details", this.details);
formdata.append("subject", this.subject);

do:

formdata.append("image", this.image);
formdata.append("name", this.products.name);
formdata.append("price", this.products.price);
formdata.append("details", this.products.details);
formdata.append("subject", this.products.subject);
