Basic CRUD

Retrieve

These are your basic methods to find and retrieve records from your database.

$post = Post::find(1);
echo $post->title; # 'Test title!'
echo $post->author_id; # 5

# also the same since it is the first record in the db
$post = Post::first();

# finding using a conditions array
$posts = Post::where('name=? or id > ?', array('The Bridge Builder', 100));

Create

Here we create a new post by instantiating a new object and then invoking the save() method.

$post = new Post();
$post->title = 'My first blog post!!';
$post->author_id = 5;
$post->save();
# INSERT INTO `posts` (title,author_id) VALUES('My first blog post!!', 5)

Update

To update you would just need to find a record first and then change one of its attributes.

$post = Post::find(1);
echo $post->title; # 'My first blog post!!'
$post->title = 'Some real title';
$post->save();
# UPDATE `posts` SET title='Some real title' WHERE id=1

$post->title = 'New real title';
$post->author_id = 1;
$post->save();
# UPDATE `posts` SET title='New real title', author_id=1 WHERE id=1

Destroy

Deleting a record will not destroy the object. This means that it will call sql to delete the record in your database but you can still use the object if you need to.

$post = Post::find(1);
$post->destroy();
# DELETE FROM `posts` WHERE id=1
echo $post->title; # 'New real title'
