In this tutorial you will learn about the Laravel Chunk Eloquent Method Example and its application with practical example.
In this laravel eloquent chunk method example tutorial, I’ll show you how to use laravel chunk method with large records in laravel. You will also learn How to insert big data on the laravel by using chunk.
Laravel Eloquent Chunk() Method
In Laravel, eloquent chunk method is used to break the large amount of data set into smaller group of sub data set also called as chunks.
Suppose, you are working with a large amount of dataset in application database. This makes working with large amount of dataset in one go more difficult that time laravel chunk method will help you break a larger group of data set into a smaller groups of data set (chunks).
In this method we will demonstrate the use of laravel eloquent chunk method with different examples:
Use laravel chunk with Eloquent Model
|
1 |
$users = User::all(); // Fetch some data |
View:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 |
@foreach($users->chunk(3) as $row) <div class="grid__row"> @foreach($row as $user) <div class="grid__item"> {{ $user->name}} </div> @endforeach </div> @endforeach |
This method work with all types of laravel collections, see the following example:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 |
$colors = collect(['orange', 'blue', 'green', 'red', 'yellow', 'purple']); $chunks = $colors->chunk(3); print_r($chunks); /* Output: Array ( [0] => Array ( [0] => orange [1] => blue [2] => green ) [1] => Array ( [3] => red [4] => yellow [5] => purple ) ) */ |
Send Email with Laravel chunk
Let suppose you have big list of users to send emails and you have to send an email to all users. Sometimes it becomes problem that you cannot send email on 10000 emails in one go. In this case you can use Chunk method of Laravel to break large amount of user list into small sub set of users so you can easily send mail to everyone. See the following example:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 |
User::orderBy('id')->chunk(100, function ($users) { foreach ($users as $user) { // write your email send code here } }); |
Insert big data on the laravel
If you want to insert large amount of data on laravel databse then you can do this with the help of laravel chunk as follow:
|
1 |
$items = collect($items); |
Make chunk of your choice
|
1 |
$chunks = $items->chunk(100); |
Then use foreach loop to insert by 100 each time
|
1 2 3 |
foreach($chunks as $chunk){ DB::table('items')->insert($chunk->toArray()); } |
