            <select name="room"  id="room" required>
               @for ($i = 1; $i <= 14; $i  )
               <option value="{{ $i }}">Room {{ $i }}</option>
               @endfor
            </select>
          </div>
        
 
        <div >
            <div >
                <button type="submit" >Submit</button>
            </div>
        </div>
    </form>

and this is my PatientController

public function store(Request $request)
    {
        $data = $request->validate([
            'name' => 'required|string',
            'age' => 'required|integer',
            'gender' => 'required|string',
            'Birthday' => 'required|date',
            'Address' => 'required|string',
            'Contact' => 'required|string',
            'Guardian' => 'required|string',
            'room' => 'required|integer', // Ensure the 'room' field is validated
            'is_discharged' => 'boolean',
        ]);
        $data['is_discharged'] = $request->has('is_discharged');

        // $roomAvailability = Patient::checkRoomAvailability($data['room']);

        // if (!$roomAvailability) {
        // return back()->with('error', 'Room is full. Please choose another room.');
        // }

        $patient = Patient::create($data);

        return redirect()->route('patients.show', $patient->id)->with('success', 'Patient added Successfully');;
        }

this is the Patient Model

class Patient extends Model
{
    use HasFactory;

    protected $table = 'patients';
    protected $fillable = [
        'name',
        'age',
        'gender',
        'Birthday',
        'Address',
        'Contact',
        'Guardian',
        'room',
        'is_discharged'
    ];

    
}

and this is my route

Route::post('store', 'store')->name('patients.store');

and then When I click the submit button, it says the target class [PatientController] does not exist. how to fix this error

When you fill out the create page, it will store it in the database.

CodePudding user response：

I think what you want is to change your route to:

use App\Http\Controllers\PatientController;

Route::post('/patients', [PatientController::class, 'store'])->name('patients.store');

CodePudding user response：

• Check the import of the class in files you used it.
• Check the error details for better debug.
• Check the namespace in the PatientController file.
• Fix the format of your route to make sure it's working properly.

and don't forget to let us know when it's solved. Good luck ^_^

CodePudding user response：

Route::post('store', 'store')->name('patients.store');

add PatientController to your route and import PatientController as shown below

use App\Http\Controllers\PatientController;

Route::post('/patients', [PatientController::class, 'store'])->name('patients.store');
