Laravel 5 Method [ALL] does not exist - php

Question

I'm trying to make a CRUD application in Laravel 5 to better understand how a php platform work ( first time using one ), but I keep getting the "Method [all] does not exist." error and I can't understand what i'm doing wrong. I have a table named 'products' in Mysql and what I'm trying to do, is to list all the entry's from within the table. I also have an index.blade.php that I will post if needed.
ProductsController.php
class ProductsController extends Controller {
/**
* Display a listing of the resource.
*
* #return Response
*/
public function index()
{
$products = ProductsController::all();
return View::make('products.index')->with('products', $products);
}
Products.php
class Products extends Eloquent
{
}
routes.php
Route::resource('/', 'ProductsController#index');

Answer 1

Eloquent will assume the User model stores records in the users table. You may specify a custom table by defining a $table property on your model. [Ref]
So, you should rename your Products.php to Product.php (or define the $table property on your model).
Then you can retrieve all products:
$products = Product::all();
Product.php
<?php namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class Product extends Model {
//
}
ProductsController.php
<?php namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use App\Product;
class ProductsController extends Controller {
public function index()
{
$products = Product::all();
return View::make('products.index')->with('products', $products);
}
}

Answer 2

Why you write ProductsController to access all() function. To access all() function you must call Product model.
ProductsController::all();
Example
Product Model
class Product extends Model
{
/**
* The database table used by the model.
*
* #var string
*/
protected $table = 'products';
}
Product Controller
class ProductController extends Controller {
/**
* Display a listing of the resource.
*
* #return Response
*/
public function index()
{
$products = Product::all();
return View::make('products.index')->with('products', $products);
}
