php-laravelHow do I use the Laravel Find function in PHP?


The Laravel Find function is a powerful tool that allows you to retrieve a record from a database using its primary key. This function is part of the Eloquent ORM, which is included with the Laravel framework.

Example code

$user = User::find(1);

This code will retrieve the record from the users table in the database that has the primary key of 1. If the record exists, it will be returned as an instance of the User model.

The Find function can also accept an array of primary keys. For example, the following code will retrieve all records from the users table with primary keys of 1 and 2:

$users = User::find([1, 2]);

This code will return an array of User model instances, one for each record that was found.
