Answer 1

Conditions using Array:

$users = User::where([
       'column1' => value1,
       'column2' => value2,
       'column3' => value3
])->get();

Will produce query like bellow:

SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE column1 = value1 and column2 = value2 and column3 = value3

Conditions using Anonymous Function:

$users = User::where('column1', '=', value1)
               ->where(function($query) use ($variable1,$variable2){
                    $query->where('column2','=',$variable1)
                   ->orWhere('column3','=',$variable2);
               })
              ->where(function($query2) use ($variable1,$variable2){
                    $query2->where('column4','=',$variable1)
                   ->where('column5','=',$variable2);
              })->get();

Will produce query like bellow:

SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE column1 = value1 and (column2 = value2 or column3 = value3) and (column4 = value4 and column5 = value5)
