Laravel Programming Tutorials, Guides & Best Practices

   php artisan db:seed --class=SiteSettingsSeeder

To easily access the settings, create a helper function.

Open the generated migration file and define a key-value structure:

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

   class CreateSettingsTable extends Migration
   {
       public function up()
       {
           Schema::create('settings', function (Blueprint $table) {
               $table->id();
               $table->string('key')->unique();
               $table->string('value')->nullable();
               $table->timestamps();
           });
       }

       public function down()
       {
           Schema::dropIfExists('settings');
       }
   }

Define edit and update methods:

   namespace App\Http\Controllers\Admin;

   use App\Models\SiteSetting;
   use Illuminate\Http\Request;

   class SiteSettingsController extends Controller
   {
       public function edit()
       {
           $settings = SiteSetting::all();
           return view('admin.settings.edit', compact('settings'));
       }

       public function update(Request $request)
       {
           foreach ($request->settings as $key => $value) {
               SiteSetting::updateOrCreate(['key' => $key], ['value' => $value]);
           }

           return redirect()->back()->with('success', 'Settings updated successfully.');
       }
   }
