I want to get a 'INT' value from a DB::Select get() - php

Question

I want to make a simple login and redirect each user to their private page, so each user will have their own page. Like www.example.com/user1.
This is for my new Application that I'm developing in this job.
public function login(request $req){
$username = $req->input('username');
$password = $req->input('password');
$type = 1;
$checklogin = DB::table('users')->where(['username'=>$username,'password'=>$password])->get();
$checktype = DB::table('users')->where(['username'=>$username,'password'=>$password,'type'=>$type])->get();
$url2 = DB::table('users')->where(['username'=>$username,'password'=>$password])->get('id');
if(count($checklogin) >0){
if (count($checktype) ==1) {
header("Location: /admin/$url2", true, 301);
exit();
}else{
if ($url2 == 4) {
echo "$url2";
}
}
}else{
return view('loginfailed');
}
}
}
The url that is redirecting is: "http://localhost:8000/admin/[%7B%22id%22:2%7D]"

Answer 1

You can fetch id as,
// fetching 1 record and then id of it
$url2 = DB::table('users')->where(['username'=>$username,'password'=>$password])->first()->id;

Answer 2

public function login(request $req){
$username = $req->input('username');
$password = $req->input('password');
$checklogin = DB::table('users')->select('type')->where(['username'=>$username,'password'=>$password])->get()->first();
if(count($checklogin){
if ($checklogin->type ==1) {
header("Location: /admin/$url2", true, 301);
exit();
}elseif ($checklogin->type == 4) {
//do something else
}
}else{
return view('loginfailed');
}
}
}
