Extending The Connection Class In Laravel

Published

Sometimes you may wish to extend the database Connection class in Laravel. Maybe you want to customize the internal workings. In my case I needed to alter the database results for every query, whether it’s through the Fluent Query Builder or Eloquent. I needed to do this to make my package, Laravel DB Normalizer, work as smoothly as possible.
