Make a Copy of the Model

If you have two very similar Models (like shipping address and billing address) and you need to make a copy of one to another, you can use replicate() method and change some properties after that.

Example from the official docs:

 1$shipping = Address::create([
 2    'type' => 'shipping',
 3    'line_1' => '123 Example Street',
 4    'city' => 'Victorville',
 5    'state' => 'CA',
 6    'postcode' => '90001',
 7]);
 8 
 9$billing = $shipping->replicate()->fill([
10    'type' => 'billing'
11]);
12 
13$billing->save();
