How to rename table in Laravel migration?

To rename a table in a Laravel migration, you can use the rename method on the Schema facade. Here's an example of how to use it:

use IlluminateSupportFacadesSchema;

public function up()
{
    Schema::rename('old_table_name', 'new_table_name');
}

public function down()
{
    Schema::rename('new_table_name', 'old_table_name');
}

This will rename the old_table_name table to new_table_name.

Be sure to include the use statement at the top of your migration file to import the Schema facade.

You should also define a down method that will be used to roll back the migration. In this case, the down method renames the new_table_name table back to old_table_name. This is important because it allows you to easily roll back the migration if needed.
