DB::table undefined function in Database Seeder
My seeder is not running as the method 'table' in the DB facade is undefined, refer below. I am having trouble resolving why?
(L5.1)
DB:table($table)->truncate();
<?php
use Illuminate\Database\Seeder;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class DatabaseSeeder extends Seeder{
protected $toTruncate = ['articles'];
/**
* Run the database seeds.
*
* @return void
*/
public function run()
{
Model::unguard();
foreach ($this->toTruncate as $table) {
DB::table($table)->truncate();
}
Model::reguard();
}
}

I had tried Use DB; but it did not work. Why does \DB::table work? I was just using what Jeff was doing in 'Database Seeding and Model Factories' @ time 5:40.

have you tried using
use \DB;

@4xjbh There are several ways for accessing Facade.
'DB' is alias of 'Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB', .. check in config/app.php
hence \DB means '\Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB' - fully qualified name space.
Laravel 5 uses psr-4 class loading where you need fully qualified class names.
see .. http://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-4/ hence first '' means it starts searching from root namespace- and includes vendor packages. If you remove '' then it searches in your own package and didn't get Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB.

Hi ! i have same problem when config database seed in laravel, you cannot use use DB or use\DB,,
you must spesified the path of your library :
you can use this -> use \Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB;
that solve my problem.

@yokisitumorang , and @4xjbh in latest version 8 of lumen you can ad alias of this -> use \Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB in bootstrap/app.php
$app->withFacades(
true, // $aliases parameter set to true (default)
[
'Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB' => 'FacadesDB'
]);
And use as FacadesDB every where
