How to retrieving a list of column values in Laravel 5
If you want a list containing a single column values to be retrieved, you can use the pluck process.
Let's build a laravel 5 pluck method
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Http\Requests;
use DB;
class PostController extends Controller
{
public function addPost()
{
$titles = DB::table('tbl_add_post')->pluck('title');
foreach ($titles as $title) {
echo $title;
}
}
}
You may also specify a custom key column for the returned Collection.
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Http\Requests;
use DB;
class PostController extends Controller
{
public function addPost()
{
$titles = DB::table('tbl_add_post')->pluck('title','slug');
foreach ($titles as $slug => $title) {
echo $slug;
}
}
}
