firstOrCreate()->first() ?

[foremtehan]

Guys I mistakenly put first() after firstOrCreate, But it returns the first record of the table not the current record, This is excepted ?

Person::query()->firstOrCreate(['name' => 'alex']);

Person::query()->firstOrCreate(['name' => 'john'])->first(); // returns alex!

It is, you're calling a non existing method on a model so it will be passed to the builder. It is basically the same as calling:

• Person::first() or
• (new Person())->first()
