Laravel Application Helper: database_path

November 20, 2016 —John Koster

database_path($path = '')

The database_path function can be used to retrieve the path to the database directory. It can also be used to construct paths relative to the database directory by supplying a $path.

The following examples will assume that the Laravel application is installed in the
/home/vagrant/Code/Laravel/ directory. The resulting path will appear above the function calls as a comment.

1<?php
2 
3// /home/vagrant/Code/Laravel/database
4database_path();
5 
6// /home/vagrant/Code/Laravel/migrations
7database_path('migrations');
8 
9// /home/vagrant/Code/Laravel/seeds/
10str_finish(database_path('seeds'), '/'):
