Laravel: Auth::user()->id trying to get a property of a non-object

Question

I\'m getting the following error \"trying to get a property of a non-object\" when I submit a form to add a user, the error is apparently on the first line: Auth::user()->id

Answer 1

id is protected, just add a public method in your /models/User.php

public function getId()
{
  return $this->id;
}

so you can call it

$id = Auth::user()->getId();

remember allways to test if user is logged...

if (Auth::check())
{
     $id = Auth::user()->getId();
}
