Laravel ordering results by specific values

问题

I have this line of code which gets results from a database:

'clanMembers' => User::find(Auth::user() -> clan_id) -> where('clan_id', '=', Auth::user() -> clan_id) -> orderBy('username') -> get()

Currently it orders by the username. I wish to change this to order by the clan_rank field. This clan_rank field will only ever contain 3 different values. These are:

1. Owner
2. Admin
3. Member

I wish to have my results ordered with Owners first, then Admin, then members. How can I change my line of code to achieve these results?

回答1:

You need to use orderByRaw:

instead of orderBy part you should use

orderByRaw("FIELD(clan_rank , 'Owner', 'Admin', 'Member') ASC");
