Laravel Collection Array of objects to simple Array method

I have $result variable assigned with collection of array objects like this :

// below is the $result value i.e. output of print_r($result);
Illuminate\Support\Collection Object ( [items:protected] => Array ( [0] => stdClass Object ( [email] => test@test.com ) [1] => stdClass Object ( [email] => test@test.com ) [2] => stdClass Object ( [email] => test@test.com ) [3] => stdClass Object ( [email] => test@test.com ) [4] => stdClass Object ( [email] => test@test.com ) [5] => stdClass Object ( [email] => test@test.com ) ) )

In order to covert above to simple array I am using loop like below :

print_r($result);
$user_emails = array();
foreach ($result as $key => $value) {
    array_push($user_emails,$value->email);
}
print_r($user_emails);

and I get $user_emails value as below :

Array ( [0] => test@test.com [1] => test@test.com [2] => test@test.com [3] => test@test.com [4] => test@test.com [5] => test@test.com )

I want to know if there is better and faster way to achieve what I have done above, using any of the laravel collection method.

Solution

  • finally this worked for me :

    $result->pluck('email')->toArray();
