I am trying to make a cart and have the following requirements :
1.when user click adds to cart product added to the session like this:

    Array

    (

        [items] => Array

            (

                [0] => Array

                    (

                        [product_id] => 15

                        [addtocart_totalmrp] => 8953

                        [addtocart_totalsellingprice] => 7876

                        [addtocart_auid] => 7065bec17a101cf2,3025bec186520de3,6725bec18d7889a7

                    )



                [1] => Array

                    (

                        [product_id] => 39

                        [addtocart_totalmrp] => 12654

                        [addtocart_totalsellingprice] => 11876

                        [addtocart_auid] => 1675bed115132bc6,755bed11033fe7d

                    )



            ),

                [2] => Array////which is not coming after 2 it stops and start overwriting the 2nd position 

                    (

                        [product_id] => 39

                        [addtocart_totalmrp] => 12654

                        [addtocart_totalsellingprice] => 11876

                        [addtocart_auid] => 1675bed115132bc6,755bed11033fe7d

                    )



            )



    )

here is my code:

$cart1 = array("product_id" => $request->product_id,

                "addtocart_totalmrp" => $request->addtocart_totalmrp,

                "addtocart_totalsellingprice" => $request->addtocart_totalsellingprice,

                "addtocart_auid" => $request->addtocart_auid);





            if ($request->session()->has('cart')) {



                $products = Session::get('cart.items', array());  // get existed products or empty array



                $products["items"] = $cart1;                      // add new product to list

                echo'<pre>';

                print_r($products);





                Session::push('cart.items', $products);      //putting that data to cart 



                print_r(count($products));

                dd($products);



            } else {

                echo 'session haas no data';

                $products["items"] = $cart1;                      // add new product to list

                print_r($products);

                Session::put('cart.items', $products); 



            }

my problem:
when I try to add a third product it is overwriting the 2nd one don't know how to do it.

I have tried this code and its working but there is item key I used once coming again any suggestion for this here is the array structure:

array:1 [

  "items" => array:4 [

    "items" => array:1 [

      0 => array:4 [

        "product_id" => "39"

        "addtocart_totalmrp" => "12654"

        "addtocart_totalsellingprice" => "11876"

        "addtocart_auid" => "1675bed115132bc6,755bed11033fe7d"

      ]

    ]

    0 => array:4 [

      "product_id" => "28"

      "addtocart_totalmrp" => "17145"

      "addtocart_totalsellingprice" => "12165"

      "addtocart_auid" => "5205bed102b6d856,8255bed103e3ce14"

    ]

    1 => array:4 [

      "product_id" => "15"

      "addtocart_totalmrp" => "8953"

      "addtocart_totalsellingprice" => "7876"

      "addtocart_auid" => "7065bec17a101cf2,3025bec186520de3,6725bec18d7889a7"

    ]

    2 => array:4 [

      "product_id" => "15"

      "addtocart_totalmrp" => "8953"

      "addtocart_totalsellingprice" => "7876"

      "addtocart_auid" => "7065bec17a101cf2,3025bec186520de3,6725bec18d7889a7"

    ]

  ]

]

my new code

if ($request->session()->has('cart')) {



//                 $productsfromsession = Session::get('cart', array());  // get existed products or empty array

// dd($productsfromsession);

//                 $products["items"] = $cart1;                      // add new product to list

//                 echo'<pre>';

//                 print_r($products);







                Session::push('cart.items',$cart1);      //putting that data to cart 

                $a=Session::get('cart', array());

                //print_r(count($products));

                dd($a);



            } else {

                echo 'session haas no data <pre>';

                $products["items"] = $cart1;                      // add new product to list

                print_r($products);

                Session::put('cart.items', $products); 



            }

New UPdate of code as per answer:

$cart1 = array("product_id" => $request->product_id,

                "addtocart_totalmrp" => $request->addtocart_totalmrp,

                "addtocart_totalsellingprice" => $request->addtocart_totalsellingprice,

                "addtocart_auid" => $request->addtocart_auid);







if ($request->session()->has('cart')) {









                Session::push('cart.items',$cart1);      //putting that data to cart 

                $a=Session::get('cart', array());

                //print_r(count($products));

                dd($a);



            } else {

                echo 'session haas no data <pre>';

                $products = [ $cart1 ];  // create a new cart and add a product in it

                Session::put('cart.items', $products); 

                print_r($products);

            }

code work perfectly but the issue of replacing started again something missing in my code?

here is what i want my code is this a sper asked in answers:

public function addtocart(Request $request) {





// if user logged in check login and add data directly to cart without session 

        if (Auth::check()) {

            $user = Auth::user();

            echo 'auth sucess';

            //   adding data to table directly       //

        } else {



// adding data to cart with session 



            $cart1 = array("product_id" => $request->product_id,

                "addtocart_totalmrp" => $request->addtocart_totalmrp,

                "addtocart_totalsellingprice" => $request->addtocart_totalsellingprice,

                "addtocart_auid" => $request->addtocart_auid);

            print_r('am current cart data : <pre>');

            print_r($cart1);



// checking for session has cart or not 



            if (Session::has('cartdata')) {



                echo ' session cart has data ';

            } else {



                echo 'session has no data add first data to session ';

            }

        }

    }



}

I have tried a new concept of JSON structure can u plz help me where am wrong whenever I try to put data on to array it goes and stop pushing array after 2nd position
here is my Code:

// adding data to cart with session

            $cartdata = array("product_id" => $request->product_id,

                "addtocart_totalmrp" => $request->addtocart_totalmrp,

                "addtocart_totalsellingprice" => $request->addtocart_totalsellingprice,

                "addtocart_auid" => $request->addtocart_auid);

            // print_r('am current cart data : <pre>');

             //print_r($cartdata);





// checking for session has cart or not



            if (Session::has('cartdata')) {



              // dd(Session::get('cartdata'));



                 echo ' session cart has new data and it is :<pre> ';



                 //// fethcing old data from session

                $productsfromsession = Session::get('cartdata');  // get existed array value





            //   decoding old data to normal array 

                $data=json_decode($productsfromsession);





                //dd($data); 





                // pushing new data to old product array 



                 array_push($data->products,$cartdata);





                // saving new data and encoding it again 

                $newdata=json_encode($data);



                dd($newdata);               ///every time i add data to this array its stop after 2nd inserted 

                // removing old data from session 

                  $request->session()->forget('cartdata');





                // putting new data to session   

                 Session::put('cartdata',$newdata); 



                //  printing result 

                dd(Session::get('cartdata'));



            //// printng current cart data after pusing new data





             } else {





                  echo 'session has no data adding  first data to session is <pre>';



                  //     // putting first item to array

                  $products=$cartdata;

                 $cartdata=array("total_price"=>10,"products"=>$products);

            $cartdata=json_encode($cartdata);

              Session::put('cartdata', $cartdata);



                 $data = Session::all();

               print_r($data);

            }

Try this:

Session::push('cart.items', $cart1);

for more info on Session have a look at this:

https://laravel.com/docs/5.7/session#storing-data

In your new code, I find this a curious thing to do when there is no "cart" in the session.

$products["items"] = $cart1;  // add new product to 

print_r($products);

Session::put('cart.items', $products);

This above code will create an array of products nested under "items" which itself is nested.

[

   "cart" => [

      "items" => [

          "items" => [ $cart1 ]

      ]

   ]

]

Session::push is fairly robust. It already pre-checks the value for the given key in the session before appending the given value to it. When the value isn't an array, it initializes an empty one and appends the given value.

The if-else branch becomes redundant when using Session::push.

$cart = [/*...*/];

Session::push('cart.items', $cart);
