Calling a model in laravel

Question

I made a command in which I have to pass my model name to process some data. How can I call it from the controller as I can't mention it as App\Models\{ModelName} because in controller the model's name is passed as a string.

Basically my doubt is, if in a function of a controller my model's name is passed as a string, how can I fetch it?

You mean you want to get the model's instance in a method to work with it?? — Saud

You can do it like this. And no laravel won't consider it as a string.

$namespace = 'App\\Models\\';
$model = $namespace.'Foo';

$result = $model::where('status', 1)->get();

Even if the model goes in the text, you can use it like this

$class = 'App\Models\User';

return $class::find(1);
