Laravel - Collections - Method Tap
The tap
method passes the collection to the given callback, allowing you to "tap" into the collection at a specific point and do something with the items while not affecting the collection itself. The collection is then returned by the tap
method:
collect([2, 4, 3, 1, 5])
->sort()
->tap(function ($collection) {
Log::debug('Values after sorting', $collection->values()->all());
})
->shift();
