I am using Laravel 8 and the User model has relation with model UserProfile
as following

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use LaratrustUserTrait;
    use HasApiTokens;
    use HasFactory;
    use HasProfilePhoto;
    use Notifiable;
    use TwoFactorAuthenticatable;
.
.
.
public function profile(){
        return $this->hasOne(UserProfile::class,'user_id');
    }
}

when i create a new user i directly do login for him and redirect him to dashboard as following

 Auth::login($user, true);

return $this->sendSuccessResponse();

but my question is how i can use user data with it's userProfile relation in blade or controller I tried to use the following code in blade

<img src="{{Auth::user()->profile->image}}" id="profile-img" alt="">

but i get the following error message

Attempt to read property "image" on null

CodePudding user response：

Your profile relationship is either malformed or missing.

This error means that you are trying to get the property image on a value of null.

That's because Auth::user()->profile returns null, then Auth::user()->profile->image is like writing (null)->image.

This can be caused by several things:

• Missing data in the database
• Wrong columns name
• Wrong tables name

The easiest thing to bypass this error would be to only display the image when this relationship isn't null:

@if(Auth::user()->profile !== null)
    <img src="{{Auth::user()->profile->image}}" id="profile-img" alt="">
@endif

However, it would be better to understand why it's null, at least to avoid further problems in your project.

CodePudding user response：

Apply these changes in your User model. I think it will work for you.

User Model

class User extends Authenticatable
    {
        /**
         * The relationships that should always be loaded.
         *
         * @var array
         */
        protected $with = ['profile'];
    
        /**
         * Get the user profile.
         */
        public function profile()
        {
            return $this->hasOne(UserProfile::class);
        }
    }
