when i write this query. i have a two records in shown in result although the table has only one.

$side_messages = Message::orderBy('id' , 'desc')
->where('to_id' , Auth::id())->orWhere('from_id' , Auth::id())->first();
dd($side_messages);

The result:

object(Message)#412 (20) { ["fillable":protected]=> array(4) { [0]=> string(5) "to_id" [1]=> string(7) "from_id" [2]=> string(3) "msg" [3]=> string(4) "seen" } ["guarded":protected]=> array(0) { } ["connection":protected]=> NULL ["table":protected]=> NULL ["primaryKey":protected]=> string(2) "id" ["perPage":protected]=> int(15) ["incrementing"]=> bool(true) ["timestamps"]=> bool(true) ["attributes":protected]=> array(7) { ["id"]=> string(1) "1" ["from_id"]=> string(1) "1" ["to_id"]=> string(1) "2" ["msg"]=> string(18) "test_query" ["seen"]=> string(1) "0" ["created_at"]=> string(19) "0000-00-00 00:00:00" ["updated_at"]=> string(19) "0000-00-00 00:00:00" } ["original":protected]=> array(7) { ["id"]=> string(1) "1" ["from_id"]=> string(1) "1" ["to_id"]=> string(1) "2" ["msg"]=> string(18) "test_query" ["seen"]=> string(1) "0" ["created_at"]=> string(19) "0000-00-00 00:00:00" ["updated_at"]=> string(19) "0000-00-00 00:00:00" } ["relations":protected]=> array(0) { } ["hidden":protected]=> array(0) { } ["visible":protected]=> array(0) { } ["appends":protected]=> array(0) { } ["dates":protected]=> array(0) { } ["touches":protected]=> array(0) { } ["observables":protected]=> array(0) { } ["with":protected]=> array(0) { } ["morphClass":protected]=> NULL ["exists"]=> bool(true) }

    That looks like one object to me. Commented Nov 1, 2015 at 22:48

It's one value not two but it's repeated for some reason one for #attributes:[] and the other for #original:[]

first method return a single model instance (Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection).

If you need to debug how much row is returned, you can use

$count = Message::orderBy('id' , 'desc')->where('to_id' , Auth::id())->orWhere('from_id' , Auth::id())->count();

I think the result your posted is an instance of your Message model. So you can't be sure that it's returning duplicate record.

first method always return single instance of model. Not collection (multiple record) of model instance.

the count returns (1) indeed .. but i was wondering why the result came in that way. but thanks bro

This dump You post is a model object, so it contains all the model settings. The thing that is important is the section

object(Message)#412 (20) { ["fillable":protected]=> array(4) { [0]=> string(5) "to_id" [1]=> string(7) "from_id" [2]=> string(3) "msg" [3]=> string(4) "seen" } ["guarded":protected]=> array(0) { } ["connection":protected]=> NULL ["table":protected]=> NULL ["primaryKey":protected]=> string(2) "id" ["perPage":protected]=> int(15) ["incrementing"]=> bool(true) ["timestamps"]=> bool(true) ["attributes":protected]=> array(7) { ["id"]=> string(1) "1" ["from_id"]=> string(1) "1" ["to_id"]=> string(1) "2" ["msg"]=> string(18) "test_query" ["seen"]=> string(1) "0" ["created_at"]=> string(19) "0000-00-00 00:00:00" ["updated_at"]=> string(19) "0000-00-00 00:00:00" } ["original":protected]=> array(7) { ["id"]=> string(1) "1" ["from_id"]=> string(1) "1" ["to_id"]=> string(1) "2" ["msg"]=> string(18) "test_query" ["seen"]=> string(1) "0" ["created_at"]=> string(19) "0000-00-00 00:00:00" ["updated_at"]=> string(19) "0000-00-00 00:00:00" } ["relations":protected]=> array(0) { } ["hidden":protected]=> array(0) { } ["visible":protected]=> array(0) { } ["appends":protected]=> array(0) { } ["dates":protected]=> array(0) { } ["touches":protected]=> array(0) { } ["observables":protected]=> array(0) { } ["with":protected]=> array(0) { } ["morphClass":protected]=> NULL ["exists"]=> bool(true) }

For much cleaner dump execute this:

 $side_messages = Message::orderBy('id' , 'desc')->where('to_id' , Auth::id())->orWhere('from_id' , Auth::id())->first();
        dd($side_messages->toArray());

And show me where is second object?!
