How to change field names in yii2?

Question

Yii

Hello.
How to specify a new field name in the query builder?
This is the source code

$query = News::find()
    ->select(['name', 'SUBSTRING(`text`, 1, 256 ) as `text`', 'date', 'id'])
    ->where($where['where'], $where['arr']);

And you need to get a field of such a plan
'SUBSTRING(`text`, 1, 256 ) as `text2`'
, but it doesn’t work ... when outputting, it swears at the absence of text2

Answer 1

Declare text2 as a public property of the News class.
public text2;
