how to calculate data by category when creating new data with the same category

Question

Model

public static function findOrCreate($plan_id, $data)
{
    $fromDate = Carbon::now()->subDay()->startOfWeek();
    $nowDate = Carbon::now()->         


        

Answer 1

the data is there, when dd($spent_time);

dd($spent_time);

Answer 2

update Model

public static function findOrCreate($plan_id, $data)
{
    $fromDate = Carbon::now()->subDay()->startOfWeek();
    $nowDate = Carbon::now()->today();

    $spent_time = static::where('plan_id', $plan_id)->first();

    if (is_null($spent_time)) {
        return static::create($data);
    }else{

        $new_spent_time = SpentTime::first();
        $task_category = $new_spent_time->task_category;

        $new_spent_time->task_category = (['{task_category}' => $task_category, 
                                        '{daily_spent_time}' => $new_spent_time->daily_spent_time,
                                        '{daily_percentage}' => $new_spent_time->daily_percentage,
                                        '{spent_time}' => $new_spent_time->spent_time,
                                        '{percentage}' => $new_spent_time->percentage, $new_spent_time->task_category]);

        $new_spent_time->spent_time = $new_spent_time::where('task_category',$task_category)
                                    ->sum('daily_spent_time', $new_spent_time->daily_spent_time , $fromDate);
        $new_spent_time['spent_time'] = (int)$new_spent_time->spent_time + $spent_time->daily_spent_time;

        $new_spent_time->percentage = $new_spent_time::where('task_category',$task_category)
                                    ->sum('daily_percentage', $new_spent_time->daily_percentage, $fromDate);
        $new_spent_time['percentage'] = (int)$new_spent_time->percentage  + $spent_time->daily_percentage;

        return $spent_time->update($data);
    }
}

Answer 3

In your SpentTime model, you are able to create accessors which are functions that can be used here to query the sum a day of all relating records:

public function getDailySpentTimeAttribute()
{
    return self::where('task_category_id', $this->task_category_id)
        ->get()
        ->sum('daily_spent_time');
}

public function getDailyPercentageAttribute()
{
    return self::where('task_category_id', $this->task_category_id)
        ->get()
        ->sum('daily_percentage');
}

Here, we create two accessors, one to get the daily spent time and another to get the daily percentage, for all records based on relating task_category.

There can be called using the following:

$dailySpentTime = SpentTime::find($id)->dailySpentTime;

// or within your blade template

{{ $spentTime->dailySpentTime }}

Update

Within your controller, as you no longer have to run any calculations upon saving, you can do the following:

public function store(Request $request)
{      
    $spent_time = SpentTime::findOrCreate($request->get('plan_id'), [
        'task_category' => $request->get('task_category'),
        'reason'        => $request->get('reason'),
    ]);

    return redirect()->route('real.index', compact('spent_time'));
}

Make sure to delete your custom findOrCreate() method which is currently overriding the laravel version.

Hopefully this helps.

Update Answer

Model

public static function findOrCreate($plan_id, $data)
{
    $spent_time = static::where('plan_id', $plan_id)->first();
    $task_category = $spent_time->task_category;

    if (is_null($spent_time)) {
        return static::create($data);
    }else{

        $spent_time['spent_time'] = $spent_time->spent_time + $spent_time->daily_spent_time;

        $spent_time['percentage'] = $spent_time->percentage  + $spent_time->daily_percentage;
        return $spent_time->update($data);
    }
}

Controller

public function index()
{
    $spent_times = SpentTime::orderBy('task_category')->where('created_at', '>=', Carbon::today()->toDateString())->paginate(10);
    $user_stories = Plan::pluck('user_story', 'id');
    $real = new SpentTime;

    return view('reals.index', compact('spent_times', 'user_stories', 'real'));
}

public function store(Request $request)
{    
    $spent_time = SpentTime::findOrCreate($request->get('plan_id'), [
        'plan_id' => $request->get ('plan_id'),
        'daily_spent_time' => $request->get ('daily_spent_time'),
        'daily_percentage' => $request->get ('daily_percentage'),
        'reason' => $request->get ('reason'),
    ]);
    return redirect()->route('real.index', compact( 'spent_time'));
}
