In the previous tutorial, you came to know how to create a table in Magento 2. This tutorial is all about creating a model file to perform CRUD operation.
To use a table in Magento, one has to create files for the model.
Bookmark this tutorial while developing a Magento 2 module.
Steps to Create Model File to Perform CRUD Operation in Magento 2:
Create a file having a name Extension.php in given address: app\code\Meetanshi\Extension\Model
The name of the table is Extension here so we have given the name of a file Extension.php.
For fetching and loading the data, you need to create another file “Extension.php” on a given location.
<?php
namespace Meetanshi\Extension\Model;
use Magento\Framework\Model\AbstractModel;
use Magento\Framework\Model\ResourceModel\Db\AbstractDb;
class Extension extends AbstractModel
{
protected function _construct()
{
$this->_init('Meetanshi\Extension\Model\ResourceModel\Extension');
}
}
Create file app\code\Meetanshi\Extension\Model\ResourceModel\Extension.php
<?php
namespace Meetanshi\Extension\Model\ResourceModel;
use Magento\Framework\Model\ResourceModel\Db\AbstractDb;
class Extension extends AbstractDb
{
protected function _construct()
{
$this->_init('extension', 'id');
}
}
Another important file is Collection.php
Collection.php file helps to collect all the data of the table.
In the given path, create a file and copy the code.
app\code\Extension\Model\ResourceModel\Extension\Collection.php
<?php
namespace Meetanshi\Extension\Model\ResourceModel\Extension;
class Collection extends \Magento\Framework\Model\ResourceModel\Db\Collection\AbstractCollection
{
protected function _construct()
{
$this->_init('Meetanshi\Extension\Model\Extension', 'Meetanshi\Extension\Model\ResourceModel\Extension');
}
}
Done!
Note, For instance, you need to send data from other platforms’ registration forms to the Magento database or integrate API in mobile. For such requirements, we have to call an API that sends a request to the server. In such scenarios, use the code to perform CRUD operation using API in Magento 2!
