Laravel - JSON in view / Eloquent error

Question

I am trying to return a specific value in my Laravel view. I define a variable in my controller and pass it on to my view. This is what I get when my blade code looks like this:

<h1>{{ $sport }}</h1>

enter image description here

However, since this is returned in my view and I only want to have the "sport" itself I did this:

<h1>{{ $sport->sport }}</h1>

Undefined property: Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection::$sport

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

What happens if you put $sportvalue = $sport->sport; in your controller and then <h1>{{ $sportvalue }}</h1> in your view ? — user2629998

You are referencing an Array Collection not an object itself

Try

<h1>{{ $sport->first()->sport }}</h1>

Or modify your controller like this

// Controller
return View::make('sports', array('user' => $sport->first()));

// View
{{ $sport->sport }}

Bingo. Can see this in the JSON - it starts with a [ - array - not { - object.

thanks a lot! Modifying the controller worked. I used get() and not first() before.
