How to change table in Laravel?

Question

Laravel

Sorry noob.
There is a Goods model class in which a selection is made from the database:

$best_sellers = Goods::select('name','price','img')
        								->orderBy('popular', 'desc')
        								->take('8')
        								->get();

All OK. The selection comes from the goods table. matches the class name.
I need to make a selection from another table in the same model class:

$main_news = Goods::table('news')
        								->select('date','title','body','img')
        								->orderBy('date', 'desc')
        								->take('4')
        								->get();

Swears at an unknown table() method:

Call to undefined method Illuminate\Database\Query\Builder::table()

How to choose which table to select from. Why not create a new class of the same name for each table?

Answer 1

Exactly what to create. One table - one model. Or, if you like, one model - one table :)
Or use QueryBuilder right away if you only have selections of some fields and which should not be converted into models
