Laravel Date/Time Carbon Issue - php

Question

I`m developing attendance management system.
My view is like this.
What I need is if I select the time value and press Mark here button current data and time value need to be stored in the database according to trainee ID.
Here is the view for that .
<table class="table table-striped">
<thead>
<th>Trainee ID</th>
<th>Name with Initials</th>
<th>Time</th>
<th>Mark Here!</th>
</thead>
<tbody>
#foreach($items as $item)
<tr>
<td>
<div class="form-group">
<input type="text" name="trainee_id" class="form-control" value="{{ $item->trainee_id }}">
</div>
</td>
<td>
{{ $item->name_with_initials }}
</td>
<td>
<label><input type="checkbox" name="time" id="time" value="time"> Time</label>
</td>
<td>
<a class="btn btn-info" href="Bankdetails/{{ $item->trainee_id }}">Mark Here</a>
</td>
</tr>
#endforeach
</tbody>
</table>
I know that my Controller is perfectly alright and need to be fixed.
public function store(Request $request)
{
$queryType = $request->time;
$carbon = new Carbon('queryType');
attendancedetails::create($request->all());
return view('traineeattendance.attendanceo');
}
Here is the necessary data model .
class attendancedetails extends Model
{
protected $table = "attendancedetails";
protected $fillable = ['id',
'attendance_date',
'trainee_id',
'name',
'starting_time',
'end_time',
'site_visit_time'];
}
Can anyone suggest me to get fixed this.

You already have the current time by default in laravel. When you save a record in migrations there is a timestamps(); input:
public function up()
{
Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
...
$table->timestamps();
});
}
That creates a created_at and updated_at column in your DB table! And you can use created_at time when that input is saved to show it elsewhere!
