Laravel 6或顶部:写表名，然后给出where子句条件，例如where('id'， $request->id)

 public function store(Request $request)
    {

        $target = DB:: table('categories')
                ->where('title', $request->name)
                ->get()->first();
        if ($target === null) { // do what ever you need to do
            $cat = new Category();
            $cat->title = $request->input('name');
            $cat->parent_id = $request->input('parent_id');
            $cat->user_id=auth()->user()->id;
            $cat->save();
            return redirect(route('cats.app'))->with('success', 'App created successfully.');

        }else{ // match found 
            return redirect(route('cats.app'))->with('error', 'App already exists.');
        }

    }

最短工作选项:

// if you need to do something with the user 
if ($user = User::whereEmail(Input::get('email'))->first()) {

    // ...

}

// otherwise
$userExists = User::whereEmail(Input::get('email'))->exists();

这取决于您是想在之后使用用户，还是只检查是否存在一个用户。

如果用户对象存在，你想使用它:

$user = User::where('email', '=', Input::get('email'))->first();
if ($user === null) {
   // user doesn't exist
}

如果你只是想检查一下

if (User::where('email', '=', Input::get('email'))->count() > 0) {
   // user found
}

或者更好

if (User::where('email', '=', Input::get('email'))->exists()) {
   // user found
}

最好的解决方案之一是使用firstOrNew或firstOrCreate方法。文档中有更多关于这两者的详细信息。

$userCnt     = User::where("id",1)->count();
if( $userCnt ==0 ){
     //////////record not exists 
}else{
      //////////record exists 
}

注:其中条件根据您的要求。

$user = User::where('email', request('email'))->first();
return (count($user) > 0 ? 'Email Exist' : 'Email Not Exist');
