Laravel 5.2 IF语句语法，基于值更改名称

Question

So, I'm going to moving on from PHP native to Laravel framework. See the code below, it's must be error, but this would tell you what I want. I'm confused to the IF statement in Laravel based my database.

<td>
        {{ 
        @if($book->status==1)
            echo 'Available';
        @elseif($book->status==2)
            echo 'Lost';
        @else
            echo 'Not Available';
        @endif
        }}
</td>

Is that possible to print out the name based on database, example: if the value is 1, then I'll print out 'Lost' on my website? Thank you.

Answer 1

<td>
    @if ($book->status == 1)
        Available
    @elseif ($book->status == 2)
        Lost
    @else
        Not Available
    @endif
</td>

A better place for this would be in the book model itself:

public function getAvailabilityAttribute()
{
    if ($this->status == 1) return 'Available';

    if ($this->status == 2) return 'Lost';

    return 'Not Available';
}

Then you could use it directly in your view:

<td>{{ $book->availability }}</td>

Answer 2

Use like this:

<td>       
    @if($book->status==1)
        {{ 'Available' }}
    @elseif($book->status==2)
        {{ 'Lost' }}
    @else
        {{ 'Not Available' }}
    @endif
</td>
