How can I prevent user data from being inserted into the database every time the page is reloaded?

Brad_Fresh

I have this function that checks if the user can join the channel and then inserts this data into the database. The problem is that it gets inserted every time I reload the page. How to prevent this from happening?

Broadcast::channel('chat', function ($user) {
     $ip = Request::ip();
     $time = now();
  if (auth()->check()) { 
    UserInfo::storeUser();
      return [
        'id' => $user->id,
        'ip' => $ip,
        'name' => $user->name,
        'joined' => $time
    ];
  }
});

Basically, you need any schema to determine that you have stored information about that user. DB , session or even auth()->user() objects ( depending on the use case ) can store this data.

Take session as an example:

Broadcast::channel('chat', function ($user) {
    $ip = Request::ip();
    $time = now();
    if (auth()->check() && !session()->has('user_id')){ 
        UserInfo::storeUser();
        session()->put('user_id',$user->id);
        return [
           'id' => $user->id,
           'ip' => $ip,
           'name' => $user->name,
           'joined' => $time
       ];
    }
});

and on logout:

session()->forget('user_id')

Remember, this is a basic example without much context.
