I would like to fetch sum of quantity in each month, so that I can display on bar chart quantities against month
This is what I thought but didn\'t workout
try this query , you will get month wise count :
use DB;
$month_wise_count=DB::table("borrows")
->select(DB::raw('CONCAT(MONTHNAME(created_at), "-", YEAR(created_at)) AS month_year'),
DB::raw("MONTH(created_at) as month , YEAR(created_at) as year"),
DB::raw("(COUNT(*)) as total_records"),
DB::row("(SUM('quantity') as total_value"))
->orderBy(DB::raw("MONTH(created_at),YEAR(created_at)"))
->groupBy(DB::raw("MONTH(created_at),YEAR(created_at)"))
->get();
