Laravel: Get values of checkboxes

I have multiple checkboxes in the following code:

@foreach($camera_video as $video)
  <input type="checkbox" name="camera_video" value="{{$video->id}}"> <label>{{$video->name}}</label>
@endforeach

I would like to see which checkboxes have been checked by the user. I just need the id (value) to store. What is the best way to do this in Laravel?

you can use has to function on the request object to check the value of the checkbox is exist and is not in the request like below;

public function store(Request $request){
        if($request->has('terms')){
            //Checkbox checked
        }else{
            //Checkbox not checked
        }
}

for multiple;

  public function store(Request $request){
        if(in_array('Mango', $request->get('fruits'))){
            //User like Mango
        }else{
           //User does not like Mango
        }
    }

$request->get('fruits') // this will return the array;

For the multiple checkboxes in a view, you can do it like this.

@foreach($camera_video as $video)
   <input type="checkbox" name="camera_videos[]" value="{{$video->id}}"> 
   <label>{{$video->name}}</label>
@endforeach

Inside your controller, you can do it like @Buglinjo's answer or else simply use a foreach loop. You will get the value of checked checkboxes only

$camera_videos = $request->input('camera_videos');
foreach ($camera_videos as $camera_video) {
    //you can do whatever you want. I am saving it in MySqli DB
    $table = new Model;
    $table->video_id = $camera_video;
    $table->save();
}

You should update name of your checkbox input to camera_video[] as array and you are good to go. You will get input array.

<input type="checkbox" name="camera_video[]" value="{{$video->id}}"> <label>{{$video->name}}</label>

If you are using Laravel 5.x.x you should use Request object:

public function yourMethod(Request $request)
{
    $cameraVideo = $request->input('camera_video');
    ...
}

You just need to define the name as an array so that you can fetch the input as array in Laravel. Like this:

<input type="checkbox" name="camera_video[]" value="{{$video->id}}"> <label>{{$video->name}}</label>

You can use 

Input::all()

or

Input::get('camera_video')
