i'm building Restful API Using Laravel
what i wanna to do is to get specific columns in JSON response instead on get all column
For example I've Product Table with these columns
title - price - description - status - created_at - updated at
and i just want to show title, price and description in JSON Response
So, any idea to do that?
You can use select for certain field display :
Model::select('title', 'price', 'description')->get();
Or, in get() method :
Model::get(['title', 'price', 'description']);
As you would like to make some typically visible attributes hidden on a given model instance, you may use the makeHidden method :
$data = Model::all();
$data->makeHidden('price');
Now price will be hidden from your query.
You can use map function after get() or all() method.
EX:
Model::all()->map(function($product) {
return [
'title',
'price',
'description'
];
});
You can use a map only function which will give you the benefit that it also handles computed fields and not only "physical" SQL fields:
Model::get()->map->only([
'title',
'price',
'description'
]);
The Answer from Abu Bin Oalid above does not work, it gives you just the attributes, and not the actual values.
