# Eloquent: Collections
* Introduction
* Available Methods
* Custom Collections
## Introduction
All Eloquent methods that return more than one model result will return
instances of the `Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection` class, including
results retrieved via the `get` method or accessed via a relationship. The
Eloquent collection object extends Laravel's [base
collection](/docs/12.x/collections), so it naturally inherits dozens of
methods used to fluently work with the underlying array of Eloquent models. Be
sure to review the Laravel collection documentation to learn all about these
helpful methods!
All collections also serve as iterators, allowing you to loop over them as if
they were simple PHP arrays:
1use App\Models\User;
2 
3$users = User::where('active', 1)->get();
4 
5foreach ($users as $user) {
6 echo $user->name;
7}
use App\Models\User;
$users = User::where('active', 1)->get();
foreach ($users as $user) {
echo $user->name;
}
However, as previously mentioned, collections are much more powerful than
arrays and expose a variety of map / reduce operations that may be chained
using an intuitive interface. For example, we may remove all inactive models
and then gather the first name for each remaining user:
1$names = User::all()->reject(function (User $user) {
2 return $user->active === false;
3})->map(function (User $user) {
4 return $user->name;
5});
$names = User::all()->reject(function (User $user) {
return $user->active === false;
})->map(function (User $user) {
return $user->name;
});
#### Eloquent Collection Conversion
While most Eloquent collection methods return a new instance of an Eloquent
collection, the `collapse`, `flatten`, `flip`, `keys`, `pluck`, and `zip`
methods return a [base collection](/docs/12.x/collections) instance. Likewise,
if a `map` operation returns a collection that does not contain any Eloquent
models, it will be converted to a base collection instance.
## Available Methods
All Eloquent collections extend the base [Laravel
collection](/docs/12.x/collections#available-methods) object; therefore, they
inherit all of the powerful methods provided by the base collection class.
In addition, the `Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection` class provides a
superset of methods to aid with managing your model collections. Most methods
return `Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection` instances; however, some
methods, like `modelKeys`, return an `Illuminate\Support\Collection` instance.

unique
#### `append($attributes)`
The `append` method may be used to indicate that an attribute should be
[appended](/docs/12.x/eloquent-serialization#appending-values-to-json) for
every model in the collection. This method accepts an array of attributes or a
single attribute:
1$users->append('team');
2 
3$users->append(['team', 'is_admin']);
$users->append('team');
$users->append(['team', 'is_admin']);
#### `contains($key, $operator = null, $value = null)`
The `contains` method may be used to determine if a given model instance is
contained by the collection. This method accepts a primary key or a model
instance:
1$users->contains(1);
2 
3$users->contains(User::find(1));
$users->contains(1);
$users->contains(User::find(1));
#### `diff($items)`
The `diff` method returns all of the models that are not present in the given
collection:
1use App\Models\User;
2 
3$users = $users->diff(User::whereIn('id', [1, 2, 3])->get());
use App\Models\User;
$users = $users->diff(User::whereIn('id', [1, 2, 3])->get());
#### `except($keys)`
The `except` method returns all of the models that do not have the given
primary keys:
1$users = $users->except([1, 2, 3]);
$users = $users->except([1, 2, 3]);
#### `find($key)`
The `find` method returns the model that has a primary key matching the given
key. If `$key` is a model instance, `find` will attempt to return a model
matching the primary key. If `$key` is an array of keys, `find` will return
all models which have a primary key in the given array:
1$users = User::all();
2 
3$user = $users->find(1);
$users = User::all();
$user = $users->find(1);
#### `findOrFail($key)`
The `findOrFail` method returns the model that has a primary key matching the
given key or throws an `Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\ModelNotFoundException`
exception if no matching model can be found in the collection:
1$users = User::all();
2 
3$user = $users->findOrFail(1);
$users = User::all();
$user = $users->findOrFail(1);
#### `fresh($with = [])`
The `fresh` method retrieves a fresh instance of each model in the collection
from the database. In addition, any specified relationships will be eager
loaded:
1$users = $users->fresh();
2 
3$users = $users->fresh('comments');
$users = $users->fresh();
$users = $users->fresh('comments');
#### `intersect($items)`
The `intersect` method returns all of the models that are also present in the
given collection:
1use App\Models\User;
2 
3$users = $users->intersect(User::whereIn('id', [1, 2, 3])->get());
use App\Models\User;
$users = $users->intersect(User::whereIn('id', [1, 2, 3])->get());
#### `load($relations)`
The `load` method eager loads the given relationships for all models in the
collection:
1$users->load(['comments', 'posts']);
2 
3$users->load('comments.author');
4 
5$users->load(['comments', 'posts' => fn ($query) => $query->where('active', 1)]);
$users->load(['comments', 'posts']);
$users->load('comments.author');
$users->load(['comments', 'posts' => fn ($query) => $query->where('active', 1)]);
#### `loadMissing($relations)`
The `loadMissing` method eager loads the given relationships for all models in
the collection if the relationships are not already loaded:
1$users->loadMissing(['comments', 'posts']);
2 
3$users->loadMissing('comments.author');
4 
5$users->loadMissing(['comments', 'posts' => fn ($query) => $query->where('active', 1)]);
$users->loadMissing(['comments', 'posts']);
$users->loadMissing('comments.author');
$users->loadMissing(['comments', 'posts' => fn ($query) => $query->where('active', 1)]);
#### `modelKeys()`
The `modelKeys` method returns the primary keys for all models in the
collection:
1$users->modelKeys();
2 
3// [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
$users->modelKeys();
// [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
#### `makeVisible($attributes)`
The `makeVisible` method [makes attributes visible](/docs/12.x/eloquent-
serialization#hiding-attributes-from-json) that are typically "hidden" on each
model in the collection:
1$users = $users->makeVisible(['address', 'phone_number']);
$users = $users->makeVisible(['address', 'phone_number']);
#### `makeHidden($attributes)`
The `makeHidden` method [hides attributes](/docs/12.x/eloquent-
serialization#hiding-attributes-from-json) that are typically "visible" on
each model in the collection:
1$users = $users->makeHidden(['address', 'phone_number']);
$users = $users->makeHidden(['address', 'phone_number']);
#### `only($keys)`
The `only` method returns all of the models that have the given primary keys:
1$users = $users->only([1, 2, 3]);
$users = $users->only([1, 2, 3]);
#### `partition`
The `partition` method returns an instance of `Illuminate\Support\Collection`
containing `Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection` collection instances:
1$partition = $users->partition(fn ($user) => $user->age > 18);
2 
3dump($partition::class); // Illuminate\Support\Collection
4dump($partition[0]::class); // Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection
5dump($partition[1]::class); // Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection
$partition = $users->partition(fn ($user) => $user->age > 18);
dump($partition::class); // Illuminate\Support\Collection
dump($partition[0]::class); // Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection
dump($partition[1]::class); // Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection
#### `setVisible($attributes)`
The `setVisible` method [temporarily overrides](/docs/12.x/eloquent-
serialization#temporarily-modifying-attribute-visibility) all of the visible
attributes on each model in the collection:
1$users = $users->setVisible(['id', 'name']);
$users = $users->setVisible(['id', 'name']);
#### `setHidden($attributes)`
The `setHidden` method [temporarily overrides](/docs/12.x/eloquent-
serialization#temporarily-modifying-attribute-visibility) all of the hidden
attributes on each model in the collection:
1$users = $users->setHidden(['email', 'password', 'remember_token']);
$users = $users->setHidden(['email', 'password', 'remember_token']);
#### `toQuery()`
The `toQuery` method returns an Eloquent query builder instance containing a
`whereIn` constraint on the collection model's primary keys:
1use App\Models\User;
2 
3$users = User::where('status', 'VIP')->get();
4 
5$users->toQuery()->update([
6 'status' => 'Administrator',
7]);
use App\Models\User;
$users = User::where('status', 'VIP')->get();
$users->toQuery()->update([
'status' => 'Administrator',
]);
#### `unique($key = null, $strict = false)`
The `unique` method returns all of the unique models in the collection. Any
models with the same primary key as another model in the collection are
removed:
1$users = $users->unique();
$users = $users->unique();
## Custom Collections
If you would like to use a custom `Collection` object when interacting with a
given model, you may add the `CollectedBy` attribute to your model:
1<?php
2 
3namespace App\Models;
4 
5use App\Support\UserCollection;
6use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Attributes\CollectedBy;
7use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
8 
9#[CollectedBy(UserCollection::class)]
10class User extends Model
11{
12 // ...
13}
<?php
namespace App\Models;
use App\Support\UserCollection;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Attributes\CollectedBy;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
#[CollectedBy(UserCollection::class)]
class User extends Model
{
// ...
}
Alternatively, you may define a `newCollection` method on your model:
1<?php
2 
3namespace App\Models;
4 
5use App\Support\UserCollection;
6use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection;
7use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
8 
9class User extends Model
10{
11 /**
12 * Create a new Eloquent Collection instance.
13 *
14 * @param array<int, \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model> $models
15 * @return \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection<int, \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model>
16 */
17 public function newCollection(array $models = []): Collection
18 {
19 $collection = new UserCollection($models);
20 
21 if (Model::isAutomaticallyEagerLoadingRelationships()) {
22 $collection->withRelationshipAutoloading();
23 }
24 
25 return $collection;
26 }
27}
<?php
namespace App\Models;
use App\Support\UserCollection;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class User extends Model
{
/**
* Create a new Eloquent Collection instance.
*
* @param array<int, \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model> $models
* @return \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection<int, \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model>
*/
public function newCollection(array $models = []): Collection
{
$collection = new UserCollection($models);
if (Model::isAutomaticallyEagerLoadingRelationships()) {
$collection->withRelationshipAutoloading();
}
return $collection;
}
}
Once you have defined a `newCollection` method or added the `CollectedBy`
attribute to your model, you will receive an instance of your custom
collection anytime Eloquent would normally return an
`Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection` instance.
If you would like to use a custom collection for every model in your
application, you should define the `newCollection` method on a base model
class that is extended by all of your application's models.
