but we created this as a closure. So let's say order index controller. Really importantly, with this controller, we need to be signed in. So let's do that first. This middleware. And let's go ahead and say auth. And then for invoking this, let's just return a view orders index. And we should be good. Okay, let's create this out. So down here in our views

under orders, let's just find this real quick. There we go. Let's create index.blade.php. And once again, we're just going to paste in some pre-made markup because there's a huge amount in here. But we'll be going through and fitting this in. Of course, this is available in the course downloads. So let's add a little drop down to here just so we can go ahead and

click on this. So if we come over to our navigation.blade.php file, let's find that log out link. So just here. And let's add in another item in here. So this is going to be a drop down link like log out. So we can steal this. And we can put this just up here. Let's pull that in. We can, of course, get rid of this on click event, which is used to submit that log

out form for cross site request forgery. And the href to this, we can put through to route and orders. And of course, just put text in there like so. OK, if we come over, there we go. And we go through to that orders page. Now, of course, at the moment, this doesn't look great. We've got all of the variation information to fill in the image of the product, all that good stuff. But

let's start really simply and just go through and iterate through each of the orders. I've left a little comment here to make it a little bit easier and then just output some really basic details about each of our orders. So we don't have our orders being passed down just yet. So let's go over to our order index controller. We're really quickly going to grab all of the orders for the

user. We're not going to add in our eager loading just yet, just so we can see this on the page. And then we'll go back and we'll grab all of that information. So let's put our request in just so we can grab the currently authenticated user. So request user. And we're just going to go ahead and say orders. And let's say latest and get the latest order at the top. And we're just going to

pass them orders down to that view, like so. So we definitely want to come back and eager load this because we're going to have a huge amount of information. So let's use a for else here. So let's say orders as order. And then down here, we'll say empty and end for else. And let's just say no orders. That's of course if the user doesn't have any orders. And otherwise, we'll go

through and iterate all of these. Now we're signed in as Mabel at the moment, who has two orders attached to them. At the moment, we don't have an orders relationship on the user though. So let's go ahead and fill that in first of all. So this is really simple. It's just a has many. So let's go ahead and say orders. This has many. And of course, passing our order class. There we go. We've got two

orders. Brilliant. So we can just go ahead and fill this information. And then we'll go through and add some more detail. So once again, for the order ID, we're just going to keep this really, really simple. Just output the ID. The formatted subtotal. Let's just head over to our order model because we stored the subtotal here. But we don't have a formatted subtotal method.

Now that's going to be exactly the same. Once again, as something like the product has, if we just come down to our formatted price, it's going to be pretty much the same thing. So we can just grab this, put it in here, and say formatted subtotal. And then just go ahead and pass in the subtotal here using our money helper. So we can grab this and replace this out

with the formatted subtotal. Let's go over and check it out. And there we go, $90. Now for the shipping type, let's once again go over to our order. We know that we have this relationship set up because we set it up earlier when we were attaching the shipping type. So what we can do from here is just say order, shipping type, and let's just remind ourselves

that's title. So we can just say title. And this is why we're going to have to start egoloading because we're accessing lots of different relationships here. So we've got one with UPS free and one with UPS standard. For the created date, we'll keep this really simple. And we'll just use the created at date, although you could use the place that date,

which is the same. And we're just going to say to date time string. And of course, you can format that however you like. Now we've got the order status here, which is a little bit more complex. So we're going to be focusing on that later because we're going to be automatically detecting when an order status changes

and sending an email. And this needs to be set up so we always return the latest order status. So we'll leave that to another episode. OK, so iterating through our orders, let's take the next episode just to go through the variations that are attached to that order. And then we can get on with our order status.
