php-laravelHow can I use the Laravel Query Builder to write a query in PHP?


Using the Laravel Query Builder, you can write a query in PHP using a few simple steps.

First, you need to include the Query Builder class in your PHP script:

use Illuminate\Database\Query\Builder;

Next, you need to create an instance of the Query Builder class:

$query = new Builder;

You can then use the Query Builder methods to build your query:

$query->select('*')->from('users')->where('name', 'John');

Finally, you can execute the query using the get() method:

$users = $query->get();

The output of the code above would be an array of users with the name "John".

The Laravel Query Builder provides a variety of methods to build queries. Here are some of the methods you can use:

  • select(): Specifies which columns should be included in the query
  • from(): Specifies which table the query should be run against
  • where(): Specifies a condition that must be met for the query to be valid
  • orderBy(): Specifies the order in which the query results should be returned
  • get(): Executes the query and returns the results

For more information on the Laravel Query Builder, please see the Laravel documentation.
