Querying from the Database (Reference: https://laravel.com/docs/5.5/queries)
Query ALL
Equivalent: SELECT * FROM ‘tablename’

Code: $variablename = DB::table(‘tablename’)->get();

foreach($variablename as $newname) {
#code
}

Example:

Column Name

Query Select
Equivalent: SELECT columnone, columntwo FROM ‘tablename’

Code:

$variablename = DB::table(‘tablename’)
->select(‘columnone’, ‘columntwo’)->get();

Query Where
Equivalent: SELECT * FROM ‘tablename’ WHERE column_name = ‘condition’

Code:

$variablename = DB::table(‘tablename’)->where(‘column_name’, ‘condition’);

Query multiple Where

Equivalent: SELECT * FROM ‘tablename’ WHERE column_one = ‘condition’ AND
column_two > ‘value’
Code:

$variablename = DB::table(‘tablename’)->where([
[‘column_one’, ‘=’, ‘condition’],
[‘column_two’, ‘>’, ‘value’]
]);

Query with other methods

Equivalent: SELECT DISTINCT column_name FROM ‘tablename’ WHERE column_one =
‘condition’ GROUP BY column_name ORDER BY column_name ASC LIMIT 10, 5
Code:

$variablename = DB::table(‘tablename’)
->select(‘column_name’)
->distinct()
->where(‘column_one’, ‘condition’)
->groupBy(‘column_name’)
->orderBy(‘column_name’, ‘asc’)
->skip(10)
->take(5)
->get();

Query Join
Equivalent: SELECT * FROM ‘table_one’ JOIN ‘table_tow’ USING (‘column_id’)

Code:

$variablename = DB::table(‘table_one’)
->join(‘table_two’, ‘table_one.id’, ‘=’, ‘table_two.id’)
->get();
Query Insert
Equivalent: ISNERT INTO tablename (column_one, column_two) VALUES (‘value_one’,
‘value_two’)
Code:
DB::table(‘tablename’)->insert([
[‘column_one’ => ’value_one’, ‘column_two’ => ‘value_two’]
]);

Query Update

Equivalent: UPDATE tablename SET column_name = ‘new_value’ WHERE column_name

= ‘condition’
Code:
DB::table(‘tablename’)
->where(‘column_name’, ‘condition’)
->update([‘column_name’ => ‘new_value’]);

STEP 1: Open the web.php in a text editor

STEP 2: Add the code
