laravel find method code example

Example 1: find or fail laravel

$model = App\Models\Flight::findOrFail(1);

$model = App\Models\Flight::where('legs', '>', 100)->firstOrFail();

Example 2: laravel find by

// Retrieve a model by its primary key...
$flight = App\Flight::find(1);

// Retrieve the first model matching the query constraints...
$flight = App\Flight::where('active', 1)->first();

// Shorthand for retrieving the first model matching the query constraints...
$flight = App\Flight::firstWhere('active', 1);

Example 3: laravel eloquent get first

// return first row by id
$user = App\User::where('id',$id)->first();
// or return directly a field
$userId = App\User::where(...)->pluck('id');

Example 4: laravel find query

// Retrieve a model by its primary key...
$flight = App\Models\Flight::find(1);

// Retrieve the first model matching the query constraints...
$flight = App\Models\Flight::where('active', 1)->first();

// Shorthand for retrieving the first model matching the query constraints...
$flight = App\Models\Flight::firstWhere('active', 1);

Example 5: laravel model::query

// Eloquent's Model::query() returns the query builder

Model::where()->get();
// Is the same as 
Model::query()->where()->get();

Model::query();
// Can be useful to add query conditions based on certain requirements

Example 6: laravel find query

use App\Models\Destination;
use App\Models\Flight;

return Destination::addSelect(['last_flight' => Flight::select('name')
    ->whereColumn('destination_id', 'destinations.id')
    ->orderBy('arrived_at', 'desc')
    ->limit(1)
])->get();
