Retrive all rows from last month (Laravel + Eloquent)

Question

I\'m trying to get all records that belongs to last month, so far I managed to get all from last month but to date today, I\'m not sure how I can get only for last month

Answer 1

None of the answers get's me to where I'm looking to go :(.

I have a solution but I think it's ugly and hoped it could be made more clean

$fromDate = Carbon::now()->subMonth()->startOfMonth()->toDateString();
$tillDate = Carbon::now()->subMonth()->endOfMonth()->toDateString();

$revenueLastMonth = Callback::whereBetween(DB::raw('date(created_at)'), [$fromDate, $tillDate])->get();

This will give my the result I'm looking for, here is my records:

2017-09-07 09:46:43
2017-09-07 09:46:43
2017-09-07 09:46:43
2017-09-02 09:46:43
2017-08-07 09:46:43

And I want it to return ONLY what records is made in August 2017 (2017-08-07 09:46:43)
