Step 3: Create Migration Files

Next step, you need to run the following command:

Now open create_countries_states_table.php migration file from database>migrations and replace up() function with the following code:

<?php
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;

{
    /**

            $table->timestamps();
        });
    }
    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        Schema::dropIfExists('countries');
        Schema::dropIfExists('states');
    }
}

Next, migrate the table using the below command:

php artisan make:model Country
php artisan make:model State

     */
    public function getCountries()
    {
        $data = Country::get();
        return response()->json($data);
    }
    /**
     * Retrieve states data
     *
     */
    public function getStates(Request $request)
    {
        $data = State::where('country_id', $request->country_id)->get();
        return response()->json($data);

            <div class="col-md-8">
                <div class="card">
                    <div class="card-body">
                        <div class="form-group">
                            <label>Select Country:</label>
                            <select class='form-control' v-model='country' @change='getStates()'>
                                <option value='0' >Select Country</option>
                                <option v-for='data in countries' :value='data.id'>{{ data.name }}</option>
                            </select>
                        </div>
                        <div class="form-group">
                            <label>Select State:</label>
                            <select class='form-control' v-model='state'>
                                <option value='0' >Select State</option>
                                <option v-for='data in states' :value='data.id'>{{ data.name }}</option>
                            </select>
                        </div>
                    </div>
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</template>
<script>
    export default {
        data(){
            return {
                country: 0,
                countries: [],
                state: 0,
                states: []
            }
        },
        methods:{
            getCountries: function(){
                axios.get('/get_countries')
                    .then(function (response) {
                        this.countries = response.data;
                    }.bind(this));
            },
            getStates: function() {
                axios.get('/get_states',{
                    params: {
                        country_id: this.country
                    }
                }).then(function(response){
                    this.states = response.data;
                }.bind(this));
            }
        },
        created: function(){
            this.getCountries()
        }
    }
</script>

Now open resources/assets/js/app.js and include the FileUpload.vue component like this:app.js

require('./bootstrap');
window.Vue = require('vue');
Vue.component('dropdown-component', require('./components/DropdownComponent.vue').default);
const app = new Vue({
    el: '#app',
});

<!doctype html>
<html lang="{{ str_replace('_', '-', app()->getLocale()) }}">
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
    <meta name="csrf-token" value="{{ csrf_token() }}"/>
