Querying Models

Query models in Elasticsearch using the same Eloquent-style syntax you’re familiar with

---

All

Retrieve all records for a given model:

$products = Product::all();

Equivalent to get() without clauses.

$products = Product::get();

---

Find

As with Eloquent, you can use the find method to retrieve a model by its primary key (id). The method will return a single model instance or null if no matching model is found.

$product = Product::find('IiLKG38BCOXW3U9a4zcn');

Find the product with id of IiLKG38BCOXW3U9a4zcn and return the model collection, or null if it does not exist.

Explain

$product = Product::findOrFail('IiLKG38BCOXW3U9a4zcn');

Find the product with id of IiLKG38BCOXW3U9a4zcn and return the model collection, or throw a ModelNotFoundException if no result is found.

Explain

---

First

As with Eloquent, you can use the first method to retrieve the first model that matches the query. The method will return a single model instance or null if no matching model is found.

$product = Product::where('status',1)->first();

Find the first product with a status of 1 and return the model collection if it exists.

Explain

$product = Product::where('status',1)->firstOrFail();

Find the first product with a status of 1 and return the model collection, or throw a ModelNotFoundException if no result is found.

Explain

Note

If the ModelNotFoundException is not caught, a 404 HTTP response is automatically sent back to the client

---

Get

As with Eloquent, you can use the get method to retrieve all models that match the query. The method will return a model collection or an empty collection if no matching models are found.

$product = Product::where('status',1)->get();

{
   "index":"products",
   "body":{
      "query":{
         "match":{
            "status":1
         }
      },
      "_source":[
         "*"
      ]
   }
}
