laravelcollective.com | The Laravel Creative Website

I use in my project Laravel 7 and https://laravelcollective.com/docs/6.0/html#drop-down-lists

I have this code:

I'm going to try to explain my problem as clear as possible, feel free to ask me more precision if you didn't understand what I meant and forgive my English this is not my mother tongue.

What I want to do looks simple. Let's say I have 2 servers: S1 and S2.
S1 is the server on which one I have my Laravel 5.5 installed and running.
S2 is a server where I have multiples PHP scripts.
I want to run a PHP script (which is on S2) from a simple click on a button in my Laravel App.
The command I want to run is php theNameOfMyFiles

1. In command line, I can connect in SSH to S2 via S1: ssh -tt -p 2222 myRemoteUser@myRemoteIp. This is working properly.
2. Most of my test will show some tries of folder creation because it is easier to see if a folder has been created instead of checking if a script is running.

To reach that goal, I tried a bunch of things. First of all, I am using Laravelcollective SSH 5.2 to be able to use SSH from my Laravel app.
My configuration file config/remote.php, this is where I specify my remote server connections :

I'm creating a laravel application that allows users to create a blog post.

I have created a PostsController as a resource with store function like this:

I am new to laravel and I am trying to install laravelcollective. I am just following to documentation here and I am using this from my project directory:

composer require "laravelcollective/html":"^5.4.0"

Unfortunately, immediately after I press ented I get the following error :

[UnexpectedValueException] Could not parse version constraint :5.4.0: Invalid version string ":5.4.0"

I just don't know how to troubleshoot this. I didn't find much on google and this combined with my lack of experience with laravel leaves me stuck.

Can someone help?

I am using Laravel Collective forms in my project, and have been commonly using the code below to populate my select dropdowns.

However, I am coming across an issue where I want to convert a database date stored in YYYY-MM-DD format to be more readable as MM/DD/YYYY.

For the rest of my code, I have been using php's date/strtotime format like so:

date('m/d/Y', strtotime($date))

Does anyone have any ideas for how I can convert what is plucked from my database to display correctly in the laravel collective select dropdown?

Controller

I am trying to use Forms but keep getting this error:

Class 'Form' not found

and

Class 'Form' not found (View: /path/to/laravel/resources/views/posts/create.blade.php)

my create.blade.php

Good day to all I was creating laravel project and used form::text which I got from laravelcollective.com but in the view the textbox occupies all width of browser viewport and I am wondering how to make it narrower. The code: {{Form::text('BrandName', '', ['class'=>'form-control'])}}

So I'm using TinyMCE Editor for all my textarea's inside of my project. More documentation can be found here about the TinyMCE Editor.

I have four different buttons, however let's just focus on one button, and I'm sure that the code can be copied from one button to the others as I want all the buttons to have the same funcationality.

Here's the buttons:

These buttons bring up a Bootstrap v4 modal. Documentation can be found here about Modal's. An Example of the modal is below.

For right now let's just focus on the Reminders Modal. This is obviously apart of a form. I'm having an issue autofocusing the textarea when I'm bringing up the modal. I'm loading the modal onto the page, but keeping it hidden until activated but the button click. I'm not rendering this modal dynamically and it is a static modal.

So lets go over my code. Remember we are only focusing on the Reminder Button and Modal at this time, so only the code relevant to that modal will be displayed below.

Note: I am using Laravel 5.6 and I'm including the modal using Laravel Blade to put the modal into the page. This information should not make a difference to the answer to this question, just saying it just incase for some off chance it might be relevant.

I'm also using Laravel Collective in order to display the textarea on the page. More documentation can be found here about the Laravel Collective textarea. Laravel Collective is not native anymore with the Laravel Framework, so this information might be relevant as well, but highly unlikely.

I'm using Laravel 5.6. I have a users table and firstname and lastname fields.

In my User model I also have this function
