$categories = Category::nested()->get();

[ghost]

Im using laravel 5.5. I have added the package. I have also added the trait to the model,

Where do i need to specify this $categories = Category::nested()->get(); When i do {{$categories = Category::nested()->get();}} it does not show anything on the view

Hi @shrikanth003

->nested() method will return array tree. If you want use in html template, you have to choose a render method.

Example:

{{ Category::renderAsHtml() }}

or:

{{ Category::renderAsDropdown() }}

Please check docs: Outputs

Ok. Is theere any tutorial on this? I mean on how to create a nested categories list with Dependent dropdown

[atayahmet]

I think this section will be helpfuly: Render as dropdown

[ghost]

My Categories Model Looks Like this

namespace App\Models; use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model; use Nestable\NestableTrait;

class Category extends Model { use NestableTrait; protected $parent = 'parent_id'; }

My Categories Table looks like id, parent_id, name, slug

I have placed {{Category::renderAsHtml()}} on my Website index page.

My Controller looks like this

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request; use App\Models\Category;

class PagesController extends Controller { /**

• Show the application dashboard.
• @return \Illuminate\Http\Response */ public function index() { $categories = Category::nested()->get(); return view('index'); }
  }

I'm a learner and didn't find any proper tutorial on this. Could you correct me or help me understanding how this works. @atayahmet

Because i get a error Class 'Category' not found (View: D:\xampp\htdocs\myproject\resources\views\index.blade.php)

Ok.The default path for models is the app directory

You can call this way:

{{ \App\Category::renderAsHtml() }}

But if you want to call with direct model name, run the command below:

Terminal:

$ composer dump-autoload

Now you can use this way:

{{ Category::renderAsHtml() }}

It worked! Tysm :)
