2. Response
3. Redirect
4. Routing

Insert one / Many

// For many, supply an array of arrays of data. DB::table('table_name')->save($data);

Last Insert Id

DB::lastId();

Update a record

DB::table('table_name')->where('id', 1)->update($data);

Delete a record

DB::table('table_name')->where('id', 1)->delete();

Truncate the whole table

DB::table('table_name')->delete();

Affected Rows

DB::affectedRows();

Fetch all

DB::table('table_name')->get(); // returns all columns

Fetch specific columns

$columns = 'column1, column2, column3 columnn' //as a string

OR

$columns = ['column1', 'column2', 'column3', 'columnn'] // as an array DB::table('table_name')->get($columns);

Fetch all columns with a condition

DB::table('table_name')->where('id', 1)->get();

Fetch all columns with multiple conditions

// multiple call to the where method creates WHERE AND AND AND ... // call orWhere to and an OR DB::table('table_name')->where('id', 1) ->where('age', 20 , '>')->where('gender', 'Male')->get();

Fetch one row with a condition

DB::table('table_name')->row()->where('id', 1)->get();

OR

DB::table('table_name')->find(1); // default column name is 'id'

Fetch one value

DB::table('table_name')->where('id', 1)->value();

Count number of rows

DB::table('table_name')->where('id', 1)->count(); DB::table('table_name')->count(); // all rows without a condition

Max / Min / Average value

DB::table('table_name')->where('id', 1)->max(); DB::table('table_name')->where('id', 1)->min(); DB::table('table_name')->where('id', 1)->avg();

Select distict values

DB::table('table_name')->distinct()->get(); // supply columns if not all // distinct with a condition DB::table('table_name')->distinct()->where('id', 1)->get();

Join tables

DB::table('table_name')->join('table2', 'table1.primary', 'table2.foregin')->get();

// call the join method multiple times to join mutliple tables using INNER JOIN. Other options of join methods include leftJoin(), rightJoin,() unionJoin()

Select with a Between clause

DB::table('table_name')->between('age', 20, 25)->get();

Select data for pagenation

DB::table('table_name')->range(1, 25)->get();

Check if the record exists

DB::table('table_name')->where('id', 1)->exits(); // retuns true if exists

Check if the record does not exist

DB::table('table_name')->where('id', 1)->doesNotExist(); // oposite of exist

Use a different database before querying

Database::switchTo('database_name'); // start querying from here

Use a different database when querying

DB::table('table_name')->use('database_name', 'table')->get();

Eloquent Models

• You can extend the Model class to you have you model called on its corresponding table name.
• The Model name should be singular and the table name in plural form
• The Eloquent model will convert your model name from singular to plural before querying the model objects.

Insert

$interns = new Intern($data); $interns->save();

Affected Rows

$interns->affectedRows();

Last Insert Id

$interns->lastId();

Magic assignment for inserting

$interns = new Intern(); $interns->name = "Godwin"; $interns->age = 20; $inters->save();

Update a model

Intern::find(1)->update($data);

Delete a resource

Intern::find(5)->delete();

Fecth all

Intern::all(); // same as DB::table('interns')->get();

Fetch all with a condition

Intern::where('id', 1)->get(); // same DB::table('interns')->where('id', 1)->get();

Fetch one

Intern::find(1);

Join models

Intern::with('course')->get(); // this will assume that the interns and courses table use the Id column as its primary key, forming INNER JOIN courses ON interns.course_id = courses.id

Join using the query builder

Interns::with('course')->join('supervisor', 'interns.supervisor_id', 'supervisor.id')->get();

Execute a custom query

DB::query('SELETE * FROM interns WHERE age > ?')->bindings([20])->get();

• Only queries with bindings are executed with the query method

Migrations

---

Create Database: | php manage make:db if the database name is not specified in the .env configurations, use php manage make:db dbname

Make Migration: | php manage make:migration create_migration_name This will create a migrations file under database/migrations directory. (tables names should be in a plural form)

RunAll Migrations: | php manage migrate This will run all migrations

Migration a specific file: | php manage migrate --file=filename This will run migations for a single file. (do not put the file extension)

Group Migrations into 1 sql file | php manage migrate:group All migration files will be grouped into one sql file

Run grouped migration: | php mange migrate:group --run This will run grouped migrations

Run Migartion modifications | php manage migrate:modifiy This will run migration modifications

List Migrations: | php manage migrate:list Lists all run migrations

Drop Migrations: | php manage migrate:rollback Rolls back migrations

Drop and re-run migrations: | php manage migrate:refresh Rools back and re-runs migrations

Show Migration logs/errors: | php manage migrate:log Logs Migrations errors

Clear Migration logs/errors: | php manage migrate:log --clear Clears migrations errors

Controllers and Models

Case; All Controllers and Models should use CamelCase and should be in singular form

---

Make Controller: | php manage make:controller ControllerName

• //in singular Will create a controller under app/Controller/
• The resource controller is created with methods, index, create, store, show, edit, update, and destroy

---

Make a Resource Controller: | php manage make:controller ControllerName --resource

• // Creates a resource controller with CRUD methods

---

Make Model: | php manage make:model ModelName

• // in singular Creates a model under app/Models

---

Make Model and its migration: | php manage make:model -M ModelName

• // in singular

---

Template

Requests

• All methods that receive data through an HTTP POST request should have a $request paramater

• HTTP POST

public function saveUser(Request $request) { $name = $request->post('name'); // get the value of name sent through an HTTP POST echo $name; }

// OR public function saveUser(Request $request) { $name = $request->name; //dynamically assigned properties the Request Class echo $name; }

// OR public function saveUser(Request $request) { $name = $request->body->name; //dynamically assigned properties the Request Class echo $name; }

• HTTP GET

public function saveUser(Request $request) { $name = $request->get('name'); // get the value of name sent through an HTTP GET echo $name; }

// OR public function saveUser(Request $request) { $name = $request->name; echo $name; }

// OR public function saveUser(Request $request) { $name = $request->params->name; echo $name; }

Response

public function login(Request $request) { $email = $request->post('email'); return response()->send(200, $email); }

• HTTP JSON response

public function login(Request $request) { $email = $request->post('email'); return response()->json(200, $email); // can be received through the message property }

Redirect

redirect('user/dashboard');

• Redirect back redirect()->back();

Routes

• The Routes class has 6 methods, get, post, group, except, name. and resource

• GET

• The get and post methods takes 2 arguements, $url (the url to go to) and $callback, an array of controller name and its method
• Simple get route Route::get('user/profile', [UserController::class, 'userProfile']);

• POST

• Simple get route Route::post('user/profile', [UserController::class, 'userProfile']);

• GROUP

• Takes in 2 arguments, $prefix (array), $callback (closure)
• Route::group(['prefix' => 'admin', function(){ Route::get('/dashboard', [AdminController::class, 'index']); }); in the template ` <a href='{{ url('admin/dashboard') }}'>Dashboard

• Resource

• This Route method is used to create routes for resource controllers
• Route::resource('products', ProductController::class); // products is the prefix of the route
• The above creates the following routes
• /products (GET)
• /products (PUT)
• /products/create (GET)
• /products/product_id (GET)
• /products/product_id/edit (GET)
• /products/product_id (DELETE)
• /products/store (POST)

• Except

• You can call the except method to ignore the specified class methods when creating routes Route::resource('products', ProductController::class)->except(['destroy']);

• name

• On top of get and post methods, you can call the name method and register a short route name to use. This name must be used within the route method
• In routes Route::post('user/profile', [UserController::class, 'userProfile'])->name('user.p');
• In the template <a href='{{ route('user.p') }}'>Dashboard</a> // takes you to user/profile
