This is the basic code. I cannot seem to get it to work in Laravel 5:
routes.php
Route::get('h2h', 'atp_players\H2hController@getIndex');
Route::get('h2h_getdata', 'atp_players\H2hController@getData');
H2hController.php
namespace Atpstats\Http\Controllers\atp_players;
use Atpstats\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Response;
use Request;
class H2hController extends Controller{
public function getIndex() {
return view('atp_players.h2h');
}
public function getData() {
$term = Request::input('auto', 'r');
$results = \DB::table('atp_players')->select('firstname')->get();
$data = array();
foreach($results as $result) {
if(strpos($result,$term) !== false) {
$data[] = ['value' => $result->firstname];
}
}
return Response::json($data);
}
}
View: h2h.blade.php

}
});

It doesn't work. It's doing nothing event when you write something to the input text case. But if I comment some lines in Controller, the data (firstname) of the DB appear but autocomplete doesn't work.
And that's the modified Controller function:
public function getData() {
//$term = Request::input('auto', 'r');
$results = \DB::table('atp_players')->select('firstname')->get();
$data = array();
foreach($results as $result) {
//if(strpos($result,$term) !== false) {
$data[] = ['value' => $result->firstname];
//}
}
return Response::json($data);
}
