laravel 5 collection pull方法什么都不打印

Question

my controller method returns this array, I know data is being returned

return view('bill')->with('itemarray',Menu::where('itemname','Apple Pie')->get());

my view is suppose to act on it like this but the print_r method prints the array but the td of the table has nothing in it and I am not getting an error

@if(isset($itemarray))
<table>
<tr>
<td>{{ $itemarray->pull('itemname') }} <!-- this prints nothing --> </td>
<td> {{ $itemarray->pull('itemprice') }} <!-- this prints nothing --> </td> 
</tr>  
</table>
<p>  {{  print_r($itemarray) }} <!-- this prints ok --> </p>
@endif

Answer 1

The underlying problem here is that get() always returns a collection. Even if your query only has one or zero results. It's recommended to use first() if you expect only one result:

return view('bill')->with('item',Menu::where('itemname','Apple Pie')->first());

This means that you will then be dealing with a model in your view, so:

@if(isset($item))
<table>
<tr>
<td>{{ $item->itemname }}</td>
<td> {{ $item->itemprice }}</td> 
</tr>  
</table>
@endif

I also suggest you change isset() to !empty() as this will also check for null (if no records match)

@if(!empty($item))
