Identify model class properties

[ali_254]

hi.

I wrote this code and printed it:

      $category=Category::find(16);
         dd($category);

 

The result: (The result of executing the above code , return an object of the category class.)

App\Models\Category {#1353 ▼
  #connection: "mysql"
  #table: "categories"
  #primaryKey: "id"
  #keyType: "int"
  +incrementing: true
  #with: []
  #withCount: []
  +preventsLazyLoading: false
  #perPage: 15
  +exists: true
  +wasRecentlyCreated: false
  #escapeWhenCastingToString: false
  #attributes: array:5 [▶]
  #original: array:5 [▶]
  #changes: []
  #casts: []
  #classCastCache: []
  #attributeCastCache: []
  #dates: []
  #dateFormat: null
  #appends: []
  #dispatchesEvents: []
  #observables: []
  #relations: []
  #touches: []
  +timestamps: true
  #hidden: []
  #visible: []
  #fillable: array:2 [▶]
  #guarded: array:1 [▶]
}

 

 

but , When I run this code:

        $category=Category::find(16);
        $class_vars = get_object_vars($category);
        dd($class_vars);

 

 result:

array:5 [▼
  "incrementing" => true
  "preventsLazyLoading" => false
  "exists" => true
  "wasRecentlyCreated" => false
  "timestamps" => true
]

 

Which of the results, Are the real properties of category class ?
  I'm confused

They're both correct. Compare the two. Can you see what's similar between them and what is not? Do you see a pattern to it? The difference is what properties are accessible.
