The Collection class in Laravel is really awesome. In Laravel, Eloquent returns result in the collection object. The class contains a lot of handy methods that will make your work so much easier. In this post I would like to write about List() method and I show you , how I used list method to generate HTML dropdown with laravel form collective .
list() method will return every value of a given key. The following example returns every category’s title, indexed by their category id.
// Here Category is model name
$categories = Category::lists('title', 'id');
Generating A Drop-Down List
$categories = Category::lists('title', 'id');
echo Form::select('category_id', $categories);
