Laravel orderBy, groupBy and limit Example

In this example we will see Laravel orderBy, groupBy, and limit example, here we will see different types of Laravel 8 query examples.

The orderBy method allows you to sort the results of the query by a given column. The first argument accepted by the orderBy method should be the column you wish to sort by, while the second argument determines the direction of the sort and may be either asc or desc.

orderBy()

Laravel Example :

​$users = DB::table('users')
         ->orderBy('name', 'desc')
         ->get();

SQL Query:

select * from `users` order by `name` desc;

Output :

All users' names will be sort by descending order.

groupBy()

The groupBy and having methods may be used to group the query results. The having method's signature is similar to that of the where method.

$users = DB::table('users')
         ->groupBy('account_id')
         ->having('account_id', '>', 100)
         ->get();

 

limit()

the limit method is used to limit the number of results returned from the query.

$users = DB::table('users')
         ->limit(5)
         ->get();
