无法将数组从控制器传递到laravel中的视图

Question

i am new to laravel and i have been following the documentation and several videos but for hours now i have been trying to pass an array from the controller to a view but i keep getting this error in the view:

Undefined variable: quiz

This is the controller code:

public function SetQuestions($id)
{
    $query = Quiz::find($id);

    $quiz = array(
        'id' => $query->id,
        'noQuestions' => $query->no_questions,
        'totalQuizScore' => $query->total_quiz_score
    );
    return View::make('quiz.set-questions')->with($quiz);
}

This is the route:

Route::resource("/quiz/set-questions/{id}", 'QuizController@SetQuestions');

This is the code in the view:

 <?php var_dump($quiz); ?>

For now i'm just dumping the data to see if the value changes form null.

Answer 1

As described in the docs the view method takes two arguments. The first is the name of the variable you want it to be accessible by in the view, the second is the actual data.

return View::make('quiz.set-questions')->with('quiz', $quiz);

There are also a few other options

return View::make('quiz.set-questions')->withQuiz($quiz);

return View::make('quiz.set-questions', array('quiz'=>$quiz));

return View::make('quiz.set-questions', compact($quiz));

All these have the same result
