Laravel Group By and Sum total value of other column

Question

I have a table in my database as shown below:

id | date       | amount
========================
1  | 2015-01-26 | 1000
2  | 2015-02-26 | 100
3  | 2014-06-26 | 10

I want to group the records by year and then find the sum of the amount of each group.

I can find the groups using the following query:

Fee::orderBy('date', 'DESC')
  ->get()
  ->groupBy(function($date) {
    return Carbon::parse($date->date)->format('Y'); // grouping by years
})

But I am not able to get the sum of amount of each group.

Answer 1

Afraid I can't figure it out right now with eloquent, this should work for the query builder though. It's working okay for me:

DB::table('fees')
    ->select(DB::raw('YEAR(date) as year'), DB::raw('sum(amount) as total'))
    ->groupBy(DB::raw('YEAR(date)') )
    ->get();

Using the same date you put in the question:

id       date                       amount
 1       2015-01-26                  1000
 2       2015-02-26                  100
 3       2014-06-26                  10

And it gives the following:

array:2 [▼
  0 => {#150 ▼
    +"year": 2014
    +"total": "10"
  }
  1 => {#151 ▼
    +"year": 2015
    +"total": "1100"
  }
]
