$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。

如果你想插入一个唯一的记录，你可以使用laravel验证:

$validated = $request->validate([
    'title' => 'required|unique:usersTable,emailAddress|max:255',
]);

但是你也可以用这些方法:

1:

if (User::where('email',  $request->email)->exists())
{
  // object exists
} else {
  // object not found
}

2:

$user = User::where('email',  $request->email)->first();

if ($user)
{
  // object exists
} else {
  // object not found
}

3:

$user = User::where('email',  $request->email)->first();

if ($user->isNotEmpty())
{
  // object exists
} else {
  // object not found
}

4:

$user = User::where('email',  $request->email)->firstOrCreate([
      'email' => 'email'
],$request->all());

简单，舒适和易于理解的Validator

class CustomerController extends Controller
{
    public function register(Request $request)
    {

        $validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
            'name' => 'required|string|max:255',
            'email' => 'required|string|email|max:255|unique:customers',
            'phone' => 'required|string|max:255|unique:customers',
            'password' => 'required|string|min:6|confirmed',
        ]);

        if ($validator->fails()) {
            return response(['errors' => $validator->errors()->all()], 422);
        }

创建下面的方法(为自己)，以检查给定的记录id是否存在于Db表中。

private function isModelRecordExist($model, $recordId)
{
    if (!$recordId) return false;

    $count = $model->where(['id' => $recordId])->count();

    return $count ? true : false;
}

// To Test
$recordId = 5;
$status = $this->isModelRecordExist( (new MyTestModel()), $recordId);

有帮助!

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();

这将检查表中是否存在特定的电子邮件地址:

if (isset(User::where('email', Input::get('email'))->value('email')))
{
    // Input::get('email') exist in the table 
}
