Fluent AQL is the query builder that powers the Eloquent conversions to AQL. So you can run most Eloquent commands as normal.
AQL is a lot more powerful however and there may be cases where you want to use its power directly. To make this easier you can use Fluent AQL:
use LaravelFreelancerNL\FluentAQL\QueryBuilder;
// 1: Start up a new query builder:
$aqb = new QueryBuilder();
// 2: set your query
$aqb->for('characterDoc', 'characters')
->return('characterDoc');
// 3: execute the query on the connection
\DB::execute($aqb);
