Class 'xxx' not found
Here's my code:
use App\xxx;
.
.
.
$model = ucfirst(explode('_', $title)[0]);
$model::where('name', 'john')->get()->toArray();
dd($model) gives:

Why? I can’t really think of a good reason to call a Laravel model dynamically like this. – Martin Bean Jan 22 '18 at 12:25

@MartinBean, I am trying to insert into some tables from excel file, and if followed the static approach, it will be headache. – CairoCoder Jan 22 '18 at 12:27

If $xxx is not full class name, do this:
$model = 'App\\' . $model;
$model::where('name', 'john')->get()->toArray();

I can't remove this part, it's everything, It's the dynamic itself. – CairoCoder Jan 22 '18 at 12:26

@CairoCoder why can't you move this part? Please give an example of real data and model class names. This approach will only work if you'll use the real full class' name. – Alexey Mezenin Jan 22 '18 at 12:31
