Message:

I use Laravel,
I have table tbl_menu

//In model: 

public function child()

    {

        return $this->hasMany('App\Menu', 'parentID', 'ID');

    }

//in controller

public function getCountChild()

    {

        $menu= Menu::where('ID', 2318)->first();

        echo '<br>Input: ' . $menu->id;

        $gioihan=20;

        $countChild  = $this->recursiveCountChild($menu, $gioihan);

        echo '<br>countChild  : ' . $countChild  ;

    }

public function recursiveCountChild($parent, $gioihan, $limit = 0)

    {

        $childs = $parent->child;

        $limit += $childs->count();



        if ($limit < $gioihan && $childs->count() > 0) {

            foreach ($childs as $item) {

                echo '<br>'. $item->affID.', ';

                //$this->dequyCountChild($item, $gioihan, $limit);

                return $this->dequyCountChild($item, $gioihan, $limit);

            }

        }elseif($limit>=$gioihan){

            echo "<br>Done: ".$limit;

            return $limit;

        }

        return $limit;

    }

And Result:
bad result

I want to get $limit but can not.

it seems, they only run on the left and don't check on the right.
help me. Thanks

My Answer:
To stop a recursive function in PHP (Laravel), you can add a condition to check if the limit has been reached before making the recursive call. Here's an updated version of your code:

php
public function recursiveCountChild($parent, $gioihan, $limit = 0)
{
$childs = $parent->child;
$limit += $childs->count();

if ($limit < $gioihan && $childs->count() > 0) {
foreach ($childs as $item) {
echo '
'. $item->affID.', ';
$limit = $this->recursiveCountChild($item, $gioihan, $limit);
if ($limit >= $gioihan) {
break; // Stop the loop if the limit has been reached
}
}
}

if ($limit >= $gioihan) {
echo "
Done: " . $limit;
}

return $limit;
}


In this updated code, I added a condition to break out of the loop if the limit has been reached. This should help stop the recursive function from running indefinitely and give you the correct result.
