I'm integrating APIs that will be connected to an E-Commerce platform. I'm supposed to add an option to track orders, how do I do that?
Also, there's no frontend yet so I'm using postman to test all the API's.
the orders go through different locations on their way to the buyer, and I'd like the customer to now at which station their item is
CodePudding user response:
php artisan make:observer OrderObserver
then something in the observer like this:
/**
* Handles the correct fields when updating
* @param Order $order
* @return void
*/
public function updating(User $user)
{
if($order->isDirty('some_column_you_use_to_change_status')) {
$someStatusTable = SomeStatusTable::where('track_id', $order->track_id)->first();
$someStatusTable->status = "whateverYOUwant";
}
}
I really don't know your logic but i think this could be something.
by the wat ->isDirty() watches if columns were changed.
you can also get the $order->getOriginal(('some_column_you_use_to_change_status')
I use this for example history of a Model to register history or even set new versions in my models
