Laravel where clause with date_format() example

In this post, i share with you that how to use date_format() with where condition of Laravel query builder. When i was working on my project, i require to search with get only selected month and year records from created_at(timestamp) column. I was thinking how can i but i know date_format() of mysql. but don't know how to use in laravel where clause. At last i use DB::raw() of Laravel and it's work.

If you have also need to search this way then you can do it this way:

Example:

$data = DB::table("items")
        ->select("id","title","created_at")
        ->where(DB::raw("(DATE_FORMAT(created_at,'%Y-%m'))"),"2016-07")
        ->get();
print_r($data);
