How can I rename column in laravel using migration?

Question

I have columns as mentioned bellow:

public function up()
{
    Schema::create(\'stnk\', function(Blueprint $table)
    {
        $table->increments(\'id\         


        

Answer 1

first thing you want to do is to create your migration file.

Type in your command line

php artisan make:migration rename_stk_column --table="YOUR TABLE" --create

After creating the file. Open the new created migration file in your app folder under database/migrations.

In your up method insert this:

Schema::table('stnk', function(Blueprint $table)
    {
        $table->renameColumn('id', 'id_stnk');
    });
}

and in your down method:

    Schema::table('stnk', function(Blueprint $table)
    {
        $table->renameColumn('id_stnk', 'id);
    });
}

then in your command line just type

php artisan migrate

Then wollah! you have just renamed id to id_stnk. BTW you can use

php artisan migrate:rollback

to undo the changes. Goodluck
