XF 2.1 Sending alerts to specific user

[shqawe]

I'm trying to send an alert to specific user using this code

$getuser = $this->finder('XF:User')->where('user_id',$params['user_id'] );
$sender = $options->alert_sender_id;
$alertRepo = \XF::app()->repository('XF:UserAlert');
$alert = $alertRepo->alert($getuser->user_id, $sender, 'post', 1, 'test', 'mention');

But i got this error

ErrorException: [E_NOTICE] Undefined property: XF\Mvc\Entity\ArrayCollection::$user_id in src\addons\myAddon\XF\Admin\Controller\myController.php at line 107

Any one can help

You are not fetching the user. Also, you can use whereId method when using finder.

Try this:

$getuser = $this->finder('XF:User')->whereId($params['user_id'])->fetchOne();

Unfortunately i got same error @CMTV

 

[CMTV]

My bad. You should use fetchOne().

It's ok but it doesn't work i got this error now

TypeError: Argument 1 passed to XF\Repository\UserAlert::alert() must be an instance of XF\Entity\User, integer given

must be an instance of XF\Entity\User, integer given

Well, from description of this error it is kind of obvious what you need to do... Just pass $getuser entity in alrt(...) method.

$alert = $alertRepo->alert($getuser, $sender, 'post', 1, 'test', 'mention');

Thanks a lot @CMTV it's work but it's coming empty how can i put title and body for it?

You should have a template named "alert_user_mention".
In that template, you can add your code (i.e. title, body, etc.)

I would recommend that you change the template name to something like "alert_user_YOURADDON_mention" in order to avoid any conflict in the future with XF's templates.
