Exporting collections

Create a new class called UsersExport in app/Exports:

.
├── app
│   ├── Exports
│   │   ├── UsersExport.php

<?php

namespace App\Exports;

use App\User;
use Maatwebsite\LaravelCsv\Concerns\FromCollection;

class UsersExport implements FromCollection
{
    public function collection()
    {
        return User::all();
    }
}

In your controller we can now download this export:

use App\Exports\UsersExport;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Maatwebsite\LaravelCsv\Facades\Csv;

class UsersController extends Controller 
{
    public function export() 
    {
        return Csv::download(new UsersExport, 'users.csv');
    }
}

Or store it on a (e.g. s3) disk:

public function storeCsv() 
{
    return Csv::store(new UsersExport, 'users.csv', 's3');
}

💡 More about storing exports can be found in the storing exports on disk page.
