How to select year and month from the created at attributes of database table in laravel 5 1

Question

My problem is that I want to get data form the database table from the created_at attributes as per year and month only. The code I have tried is:

$post= Mjblog::select(DB::raw('YEAR(created_at) year, MONTH(created_at) month'));
$posts_by_y_m = $post->where('created_at',$post)->get();

Answer 1

Hello @kartik,

There are date helpers available in the query builder:

$post = Mjblog::whereYear('created_at', '=', $year)
              ->whereMonth('created_at', '=', $month)
              ->get();

Hope it helps!!

Thank you!!
