We know that create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) are the four basic functions of persistent storage.
Today I’m going to show the CRUD operations for Laravel. It is a simple Laravel crud tutorial for beginners.
– You will get basic crud stuff using controller, model, route, blade etc.
– Last tested on Laravel 11.x.
Let’s install a fresh Laravel project. Before installation you will need to make sure your server meets the following requirements:
Go to your project folder (for wamp, go to www) (for xampp, go to htdocs folder) and write this command in your terminal to create a project.
composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel laravelcrud
In the Laravel project, there is a file called .env
. It’s for project configuration. To connect with database we need to set database credentials.
DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=laravelcrud
DB_USERNAME=root
DB_PASSWORD=pasword
To handle this error, go to this file laravelcrud/app/Providers/AppServiceProvider.php
and inside the boot
method set a default string length:
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
public function boot()
{
Schema::defaultStringLength(191);
}
For CURD operations, we generally use “products”. So run this command to create products table:
php artisan make:migration create_products_table --create=products
We have successfully created the products table. Now go to “database/migrations” and you will find the migration file (database/migrations/date_161941_create_products_table.php
) for creating products table:
<?php
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
class CreateProductsTable extends Migration
{
/**
* Run the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function up()
{
Schema::create('products', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->bigIncrements('id');
$table->string('name');
$table->string('price');
$table->text('detail');
$table->timestamps();
}
/**
* Reverse the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function down()
{
Schema::dropIfExists('products');
}
}
– Now run this command to migrate this migration:
php artisan migrate
In this step, we will create a controller named ‘ProductController ‘ and a model named ‘Product ‘. Run this command to create both the controller and the model:
php artisan make:controller ProductController --resource --model=Product
– Model Product and ProductController has been created.
– Open the app/Models/Product.php
file and paste this code:
<?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class Product extends Model
{
protected $fillable = [
'name', 'price', 'detail'
];
}
– Let’s modify ProductController. Open the file from this location app/Http/Controllers/ProductController.php
. You can see 7 empty functions. Remove all codes and paste this code to the ProductController file:
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use App\Product;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class ProductController extends Controller
{
/**
* Display a listing of the resource.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function index()
{
$products = Product::latest()->paginate(5);
return view('products.index',compact('products'))
->with('i', (request()->input('page', 1) - 1) * 5);
}
/**
* Show the form for creating a new resource.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function create()
{
return view('products.create');
}
/**
* Store a newly created resource in storage.
*
* @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function store(Request $request)
{
$request->validate([
'name' => 'required',
'price' => 'required',
'detail' => 'required',
]);
Product::create($request->all());
return redirect()->route('products.index')
->with('success','Product created successfully.');
}
/**
* Display the specified resource.
*
* @param \App\Product $product
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function show(Product $product)
{
return view('products.show',compact('product'));
}
/**
* Show the form for editing the specified resource.
*
* @param \App\Product $product
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function edit(Product $product)
{
return view('products.edit',compact('product'));
}
/**
* Update the specified resource in storage.
*
* @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* @param \App\Product $product
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function update(Request $request, Product $product)
{
$request->validate([
'name' => 'required',
'price' => 'required',
'detail' => 'required',
]);
$product->update($request->all());
return redirect()->route('products.index')
->with('success','Product updated successfully');
}
/**
* Remove the specified resource from storage.
*
* @param \App\Product $product
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function destroy(Product $product)
{
$product->delete();
return redirect()->route('products.index')
->with('success','Product deleted successfully');
}
}
– Open the “routes/web.php
” file and create a resource route for product.
<?php
Route::get('/', function () {
return view('welcome');
});
Route::resource('products','ProductController');
Go to resources/views directory and make a folder named ‘products‘.
Now go to the products folder. So, now you are here: resources/views/products.
– We are going to create 5 files here (layout.blade.php
, index.blade.php
, create.blade.php
, edit.blade.php
, show.blade.php
). Just create these files and copy paste the codes:
layout.blade.php

– Our Laravel CRUD application is ready :). Just run your application by this command:
php artisan serve
Now visit your project URL from browser:
Now, if you visit http://localhost:8000/products Or http://127.0.0.1:8000/products, you'll see the output like:
