Each table in your database corresponds with a Model that your can use to interact with it. Using Models, you can execute queries or add new records to a table. Today, we’ll set up and test a basic Model.</p><h3 style="text-align:left;">Creating the Model</h3><p style="text-align:left;">To start, you’ll need to be sure your database is configured correctly in config/database.php</p><p style="text-align:left;">Models can be created anywhere your composer.json specifies can be auto loaded. The normal place to put them, however, is the app directory. A Model can be created using the artisan command-</p><pre>php artisan make:model TestModel
</pre><p>&nbsp;</p><p style="text-align:left;">The file for this model will be in <i>app/models/TestModel.php</i></p><p style="text-align:left;">The contents will look like this</p><pre>&lt;?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class TestModel extends Model {
}
?&gt;
</pre><p>&nbsp;</p><h3 style="text-align:left;">Choose the Correct Database Connection</h3><p style="text-align:left;">Eloquent will use the default connection specified in your config/database.php file. Let’s specify</p><pre>&lt;?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
<br>
class TestModel extends Model {
   protected $connection = 'your-connections-name';
}
</pre><p>&nbsp;</p><h3 style="text-align:left;">Specifying a Table</h3><p style="text-align:left;">As currently implemented, Eloquent will add an ‘s’ to your model name and look for the default table. In this case, it will be looking for a testmodels table. We can change that by specifying a table.</p><pre>&lt;?php
  namespace App;
  use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
<br>
  class TestModel extends Model {
  protected $connection = 'your-connections-name';
  protected $table = 'test_table';
}
</pre><p style="text-align:left;">You will need to make sure you have a table in this database that matches all of the parameters you’ve specified here.</p><h3 style="text-align:left;">Setting the Primary Key</h3><p style="text-align:left;">Eloquent will also make an assumption about the table’s primary key as “id” Let’s change that.</p><pre>&lt;?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
<br>
class TestModel extends Model {
    protected $connection = 'your-connections-name';
    protected $table = 'test_table';
    protected $keyType = 'pkey_name';
}
</pre><h3 style="text-align:left;">Testing your Model</h3><p style="text-align:left;">The following is a basic test query</p><pre>&lt;?php
$TestModel = App\TestModel::all();
foreach ($TestModel as $TestData) {
    echo $TestData-&gt;field1;
}
</pre><p style="text-align:left;">This will echo the specified field (field1) for every entry in the table. Let’s sort our query and limit our results to the first 20</p><pre>&lt;?php
$TestModel = App\TestModel::orderBy('field2', 'asc')
 	-&gt;take(20)
        -&gt;get();
foreach ($TestModel as $TestData) {
    echo $TestData-&gt;field1;
}
</pre><p style="text-align:left;">This will sort the table by field2, and display the first 20 results for field1. For more information on building queries with Eloquent, refer to the <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://laravel.com/docs/5.7/queries">official query documentation</a>.</p><p style="text-align:left;">Now that you’ve created your first Model and have used it queries on the linked database table, you’re ready to get started with Eloquent ORM in Laravel! The next steps are learning more complex queries, insertions, and integrating this all into your project.</p><p style="text-align:left;"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-9578 " src="https://storage.googleapis.com/storage-codeclouds/large/img6.jpg?updated_at=2023-07-27T05:27:48.782Z" alt="laravel development company" width="" height=""></p><p style="text-align:left;">If you need an <a href="/skill/laravel/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">experienced Laravel development company</a>, trust the experts at CodeClouds!
