自动更新没有模型的表中的时间戳

Question

Doesn't laravel automatically update the timestamps of tables which have no model , like a 'pivot' table? I have tried doing it but it doesn't update timestamps .

And if it doesn't update it, is there a way we can do it using laravel ? Or the only way is to update them manually by updating the columns 'created_at' or 'updated_at' ?

Answer 1

Laravel only updates those fields when you're using a modal. If you want to update them manually then you can do so.

DB::table('table')->where('id', '=', '1')->update(array(
    'created_at' => date('Y-m-d H:i:s'),
    'updated_at' => date('Y-m-d H:i:s')
));

Answer 2

Try the withTimestamp() on the relationship involving the pivot.

//class User

    public function items() 
    {
       return $this->belongsToMany('Items')->withTimestamps();
    }
