laravel select return value code example

Example 1: get single column value in laravel eloquent

Vehicle::find(3)->value('register_number');

Example 2: 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 3: 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();
