Step 1: Install Laravel App

In this step, you need to run below command to download or install fresh laravel setup into your machine for creating a laravel google bar chart app. So open your terminal and run the following command:

composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel blog

Step 2: Add Database Configuration

In this step, you need to navigate your laravel google bar chart app project root directory. And open .env file. Then add database detail like below:

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=Enter_Your_Database_Name
DB_USERNAME=Enter_Your_Database_Username
DB_PASSWORD=Enter_Your_Database_Password

Step 3: Generate Migration & Model File

In this step, you need to run the below command to create model and migration file. So open your terminal and run the following command:

php artisan make:model Order -fm

Then navigate to app directory and open Order.php file. And add the following code into your Order.php file:

<?php

namespace App;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Order extends Model
{
    protected $guarded = [];
}

After that navigate to database/migrations/ and open create_orders_table.php file and update the following code:

Schema::create('orders', function (Blueprint $table) {
    $table->id();
    $table->string("product_name")->nullable();
    $table->string("product_id")->nullable();
    $table->string("price")->nullable();
    $table->timestamps();
});

Then open your terminal and run the following command:

php artisan migrate

After that, navigate to database/factories folder and open OrderFactory.php file. And the following code into your OrderFactory.php file:

<?php

/** @var \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factory $factory */

use App\Order;
use Faker\Generator as Faker;

$factory->define(Order::class, function (Faker $faker) {
    return [
        "product_name"          =>  $faker->word,
        "product_id"            =>   $faker->numberBetween(1,100),
        "price"                =>  $faker->numberBetween(1, 100),
    ];
});

Then open your terminal again, and run the following command to generate fake data into your database in laravel:

 php artisan tinker  //then  factory(\App\Order::class,100)->create()

Step 4: Add Route

In this step, navigate to routes folder and open web.php file. Then add the following route into your web.php file:

Route::get("google-bar-chart", "OrderController@index");

Step 5: Create Controller

In this step, open your terminal again and run the following command to create controller named OrderController.php:

php artisan make:controller OrderController

Then Navigate to app/http/controller folder and open OrderController.php. And add the following code into your OrderController.php file:

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Order;

class OrderController extends Controller
{
    public function index()
    {
       $orders = Order::all();
       return view('google-bar-chart',['orders' => $orders]);   
    }
}

Step 6: Create Blade File

In this step, navigate to /resources/views/ folder and create one blade view file name google-bar-chart.blade.php. And add the following code into your google-bar-chart.blade.php file:
