Displaying TRUE/FALSE Instead of 1/0 in Laravel 8 with Eloquent

Laravel 8, known for its elegant syntax and robust features, makes it easy to handle data. However, when dealing with boolean values from a database, you might notice that they are represented as 1 (for true) and 0 (for false). This might not be user-friendly, especially if you want your output to be more readable and intuitive. In this guide, we will explore how to display boolean values as TRUE or FALSE instead of 1 or 0 in Laravel 8 using Eloquent.

Understanding the Problem

When you create a form with a boolean input such as a checkbox in Laravel, the data is generally stored as 0 or 1 in the database. Here’s a brief overview of the code involved:

Your Form

In your Blade template, you might have a checkbox like this:

The Solution

To display the boolean value as TRUE or FALSE in your Blade view, you can use a simple conditional syntax. Here’s how to do it:

In Your Blade File

Instead of directly outputting the boolean value, use a ternary operator:

This line effectively checks the value of $offer->is_active and displays TRUE if it is true and FALSE if it is false.

Conclusion

By implementing the above approach, you can enhance the user experience of your Laravel application by displaying boolean values in a more readable format. This small adjustment can make a significant difference in how users interact with your application's data.

Feel free to implement this solution in your Laravel 8 projects, and enjoy clearer data representation! If you have any questions or need further assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out. Happy coding!
