Laravel 4 cannot run whole RAW queries

Question

I would like to use the DB class of laravel to execute a mysql query but none of the functions provided by Laravel are working.

None of those is working: DB::statment()

Answer 1

What about this code? I find it pretty usefull to use migrations & db seeding - especialy for deployment.

Schema::create('users', function($table){
    $table->increments('id');
    $table->string('u_username');
    $table->string('u_email');
    $table->string('password');
    $table->datetime('u_regdate');
    $table->date('u_birthday');
    $table->integer('u_lastlogin');
    $table->integer('u_logcout')->default(0);
    $table->tinyinteger('u_level')->default(0);
    $table->tinyinteger('u_language')->default(0);
    $table->tinyinteger('u_status')->default(0);
    $table->tinyinteger('u_gender')->default(0);
});


// Repeat this for other users as well
User::create([
    'u_username' =>     'admin',
    'u_email' =>        'admin@example.com',
    'password' =>       Hash::make('users-password'),
    'u_regdate' =>      date('Y-m-d H:i:s'),
    'u_birthday' =>     '1980-01-01',
    'u_lastlogin' =>    0,
    'u_logcout' =>      0,
    'u_level' =>        9,
    'u_language' =>     0,
    'u_status' =>       0,
    'u_gender' =>       0,
]);
