how to store array of data in Session and retrieve it Laravel?

Question

I was trying to store some data in session through ajax. Means from Ajax request i would get the product_id and it put it inside product array through Session. And I want to retrieve every session array data.

Every Ajax request product_id will be stored into Session Array: // for storing $products into session following controller .But it stored only last one not the previous request

public function postEnquote(Request $request)
    {
       $product = Product::where('id',$request->Input(['product_id']))->first();
       Session::put('product', $product);
    }

// For retrieving every session data i used following one, but doesn't work properly means i couldn't get every session data..

  public function enquoteList()
    {
      foreach(Session::get('product') as $test)
      {
         var_dump($test->id);
      }

     }

Session::put('product', $product); - you're overwriting this every time, not appending it. If you want multiple products, then you'll have to store it as an array within the session. — aynber

@RobertRocha it's better to use an abstraction so he can swap implementations. If he were to use $_SESSION hard-coded like that it'd be a pain to change it all across the app. — ishegg

You will have to use push here.

Session::push('product', $product);

So all new $product push into 'product' session variable.

How do i print that array? means the session array?

$products = Session::get('product'); and you can run a foreach as $products is an array.

Use push to add a value to an array

public function postEnquote(Request $request)
{
   $product = Product::where('id',$request->Input(['product_id']))->first();
   Session::push('product', $product);
}
