laravel-4

I'm trying to use a Laravel 4 package language file, but I don't know how to do it. I created a package with php artisan workbench vendor/package --resources . I then create file workbench/vendor/package/src/lang/en/routes.php . In that routes file a I have this: <?php return [ 'foo' => 'bar' ]; Now how do I access that?

I was updating my Laravel 3 app to Laravel 4 when I hit this problem... Routes I have tried: Route::get('backend/login', 'backend/UserController@login'); Route::get('backend/login', 'backend.UserController@login'); I had a similar issue just a few hours ago and had to play a little bit with it to have it working.

I'm trying to populate a drop down menu with database results in Laravel 4. I'm extremely new to Laravel. This is actually my first site and I'm learning as I go. So, please tell me if I'm using the wrong terminology or not enough information. I've got a database of company info and I need users to be able to choose a company from a dropdown.

I am trying to select from a table, but I only want to select things that have an existing relationship. For example, if I have Users and Comments, and Users haveMany Comments, I want to do something like: User::hasComments()->paginate(20); So, I only want to select Users that have at least 1 Comment, and paginate the result of that query. Is there any way to do this?

I have this query, made using Laravel query builder: $rows = DB::table('elements')->where('type', 1); That corresponds to: "SELECT * from elements WHERE type=1" Now, in some cases I need to add a second Where to create a query like this: SELECT * from elements WHERE type=1 AND lang='EN' Using classic php I'd do something like: $sql = 'SELECT * from elements WHERE type=1'; if($var==true) $sql .= " AND lang='EN'"; How can I do that using Laravel Query Builder?
