在if语句中检查null可以防止Laravel在查询结束后立即返回404。

if ( User::find( $userId ) === null ) {

    return "user does not exist";
}
else {
    $user = User::find( $userId );

    return $user;
}

如果找到用户，它似乎会运行双重查询，但我似乎找不到任何其他可靠的解决方案。

最简单的方法

    public function update(Request $request, $id)
{


    $coupon = Coupon::where('name','=',$request->name)->first(); 

    if($coupon->id != $id){
        $validatedData = $request->validate([
            'discount' => 'required',   
            'name' => 'required|unique:coupons|max:255',      
        ]);
    }


    $requestData = $request->all();
    $coupon = Coupon::findOrFail($id);
    $coupon->update($requestData);
    return redirect('admin/coupons')->with('flash_message', 'Coupon updated!');
}

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());

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
}

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);
        }

要知道是否有记录是很简单的

$user = User::where('email', '=', Input::get('email'))->get();
if(count($user) > 0)
{
echo "There is data";
}
else
echo "No data";
