/ Laravel / By

In this tutorial I will share you How to get the country list in laravel , we need to follow some simple steps, So It is not better if you create a database table with the country and then manually you store all information from google or something else.

So Lets Start : Laravel dynamic dropdown country

Step 1. Create Table countries

In this step we will create a migration file and create Table Country

php artisan make:migration create_countries_table

After this command open your migration file under the Database Folder, paste the code

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;

class CreateCountriesTable extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('countries', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->bigIncrements('id');
            $table->string('name');
            $table->string('code');
            $table->timestamps();
        });
    }

    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        Schema::dropIfExists('countries');
    }
}

After this run this Command :

php artisan migrate

Step 2. Make Model

Now we will create a model For Country

Run This Command :

php artisan make:model Country
<?php

namespace App;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Country extends Model
{
    protected $table = 'countries';
}

Step 3. Make Controller

Now we will make a controller for get country and pass into our blade file

Run This Command :

php artisan make:controller CountryController

Now define your Controller in Route File

Route::get(‘/’,’CountryController@index’);

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Country;

class CountryController extends Controller
{
    public function index()
    {
    	$Getcountrylist = Country::all();
    	return view('country',compact('Getcountrylist'));
    }
}

Step 4. Make Seeder

In this step, we will create a seeder file for storing all countries data in countries table

Seeder

php artisan make:seeder CountrySeeder
<?php

use Illuminate\Database\Seeder;

class CountrySeeder extends Seeder
{
    /**
     * Run the database seeds.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function run()
    {
        DB::table('countries')->truncate();

        $countries = [

        ];

        DB::table('countries')->insert($countries);
    }
    
}

Run This Command :

php artisan db:seed

Step 5. Create a view File

Now we create a view fiel name country.blade.php

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <title>get all country list</title>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

  <style>
  	*{
	margin: 0px;
	padding: 0px;
}
body{
	background-color: brown;
	background-size: cover;
	background-attachment: fixed;
	font-family: new time roman;
}

			<p class="text-left">Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
