Laravel听起来像魔术

Question

I just recently started experimenting with laravel, lovely. One thing l dont understand though is how laravel knows my table l just added a model and the model isnt the exact table name, but just how does it manage to get my table,

Answer 1

Laravel follows a Naming convention for Eloquent Classes and Tables.

From Laravel Website | Eloquent: Getting Started

Note that we did not tell Eloquent which table to use for our Flight model. By convention, the "snake case", plural name of the class will be used as the table name unless another name is explicitly specified. So, in this case, Eloquent will assume the Flight model stores records in the flights table.

Eg.

Class User will by default refers to Mysql Table users (Camel Case to Snake Case and Plural).

Class NotificationsLog will by default refers to Mysql Table notifications_logs (Camel Case to Snake Case and Plural).

But if you don't want to follow the convention then you can Mention the table name explicitly

Eg. If I want my Class Plane should refers to flights table in Database then following code will work

<?php

namespace App;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Plane extends Model
{
     /**
     * The table associated with the model.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $table = 'flights';
}
