How to call Helper.php function in JavaScript

Question

I have a function in helper.php:

public static function getFristImageSearch($slug)
{
    $slug = str_replace("-", " ", $slug);
    $image = Images::select('thumbnail')->where( 'metakeywords','LIKE', '%'.$slug.'%' )
    ->where('status', 'active' )
    ->groupBy('id')
    ->orderBy('DATE', 'desc' )
    ->first();
    if( isset( $image ) ) {
        return $image->thumbnail;
    }
    else
    {
        return "";
    }
}

now I want to call this function in Javascript abc.js:

var n = e.replace(t, "<b>" + myvariable + "</b>");
var gotme = getFristImageSearch(n);

but variable gotme doesnot work

getFristImageSearch is not defined

You should use AJAX request to get values from PHP function. — S N Sharma

PHP code can't be run on JavaScript. They're completely separate here.

Based on your tags, I guess you're using Laravel. You need to return your data as a REST API endpoint with JSON data type.

Let's assume you've written an endpoint for the output of the function with this address: /api/getFristImageSearch/slug

Then you have to call it from your JavaScript side like this:

fetch(`'/api/getFristImageSearch/${slug}'`).then((response) => {
        // get your response data here
      })

You can use jQuery to fetch your data as well.

And if you're using this code in production, don't forget to protect your routes if needed.
