In this example, I will show you how to implement the Laravel 8 Collection with first() and firstWhere() methods. When doing a Laravel project we should use Laravel collection for easier to process our array data. We will use the collect helper function of Laravel to create a new collection instance from our array.
And sometimes you need to get the first element or with a condition query that will display the first result of our Laravel collection. With the use of first() and firstWhere() methods will make it easier for us.
Example 1: Laravel Collection first() Method Example
public function index()
{
$collection = collect([
['id'=> 1, 'name'=>'Juan Dela Cruz', 'age' => 25],
['id'=> 2, 'name'=>'Juana Vasquez', 'age' => 31],
['id'=> 3, 'name'=>'Jason Reyes', 'age' => 27],
['id'=> 4, 'name'=>'Jake Ramos', 'age' => 43],
]);
$first = $collection->first();
dd($first);
}
Output:
array:3 [▼
"id" => 1
"name" => "Juan Dela Cruz"
"age" => 25
]
Example 2: Laravel Collection first() Method Example
public function index()
{
$collection = collect([
['id'=> 1, 'name'=>'Juan Dela Cruz', 'age' => 25, 'gender' => 'Male'],
['id'=> 2, 'name'=>'Juana Vasquez', 'age' => 31, 'gender' => 'Female'],
['id'=> 3, 'name'=>'Jason Reyes', 'age' => 27, 'gender' => 'Male'],
['id'=> 4, 'name'=>'Jake Ramos', 'age' => 43, 'gender' => 'Male'],
]);
$first = $collection->firstWhere('name', 'Juan Dela Cruz');
dd($first);
}
Output:
That's it I hope you learn how to get the first element of the Laravel collection using first() and firstWhere() methods.
