How retrieve element from collection by name?

First, I create collection from array:

 $bank_center = collect(array("amount" => null, "mfo" => null, "name" => null));

Then I try to get value by key:

dd($bank_center->name);

Dump is:

Collection {#562 ▼
  #items: array:3 [▼
    "amount" => null
    "mfo" => null
    "name" => null
  ]
}

To retrieve element by name from collection you can use get method, it returns the item at a given key. If the key does not exist, null is returned:

$collection = collect(['name' => 'bruno', 'framework' => 'laravel']);

$value = $collection->get('name');

// bruno

In your particular case, the following would just work: 

$bank_center['name'];

I am not sure why you want to wrap it as an object, but if you still wish to do it, I'd recommend you take a look at Fluent. 

$bank_center = new \Illuminate\Support\Fluent(array("amount" => 'test', "mfo" => 'test2', "name" => 'test3'));


dd($bank_center->name); // test3

You should use square brackets to access item from such collection:

$bank_center['name']
