I set a field of type timestamp with carbon::now(), but field get null value!

in the job (handle() method) or observer (created() method) :

$cart->publish_date = Carbon::now();
$cart->save();

but in the localhost everything is ok !

what is wrong ?

thanks

observers jobs php laravel

Carbon::now(); returns an object of Carbon. If you need to save it to a database column you must do:

$cart->publish_date = Carbon::now()->toDateTimeString();
$cart->save();

You could give this a try.

$cart->update(['publish_date' => now()]);

This reads a bit cleaner IMO and removes the need for the Carbon import (If Carbon isn't being used anywhere else in the class)
