how to retrieve select options from my database - forms

Question

I'm trying to retrieve my select option from 3 databases located in a connection that's not my defaut connection.
but I'm getting an error : Undefined variable: marqs (View: C:\wamp64\www\projetSovac\resources\views\home.blade.php)
Here's my controller code
public function index()
{
$marques= DB::connection('sqlsrv2')->table('marque')->get();
$modeles = DB::connection('sqlsrv2')->table('Modele')->select( DB::raw('CodeModele'))->get();
$finitions = DB::connection('sqlsrv2')->table('finition')->select( DB::raw('CodeFinition'))->get();
$marqs = $marques->all(['marque']);
$models = $modeles->all(['CodeModele']);
$Finitions = $finitions->all(['CodeModele']);
return View::make('home')
->with(compact($marqs))
->with(compact($models))
->with(compact($Finitions));
return View('home');
}
and my home.blade.php code
<tr class="filters">
<th><input type="text" class="form-control daterangepicker-field" placeholder="Période d'analyse" disabled ></th>
<th><select class="form-control " disabled>
{!! Form::Label('marque', 'marque:') !!}
#foreach($marqs as $marque)
<option value="{{$marque->codeMarque}}">{{$marque->codeMarque}}</option>
#endforeach
</select>
</th>
Can you help identify the problem?
Thanks

Answer 1

compact($marqs) wants to have a string divining the variable you want to pass to the view. Use: compact('marqs') you can also combine your variables like compact('marqs', 'models', ....etc )
Also you are returning something 2 times now in the function this is not possible.
I would rewrite your function to be like this:
$marques= DB::connection('sqlsrv2')->table('marque')->get();
$modeles = DB::connection('sqlsrv2')->table('Modele')->select( DB::raw('CodeModele'))->get();
$finitions = DB::connection('sqlsrv2')->table('finition')->select( DB::raw('CodeFinition'))->get();
$marqs = $marques->all(['marque']);
$models = $modeles->all(['CodeModele']);
$Finitions = $finitions->all(['CodeModele']);
return View::make('home')->with(compact('marqs', 'models', 'Finitions'));
Assuming the first 6 lines get you the actual data all i changed was the return.
