Laravel whereRelation with another database connection - php

Question

I am just using Laravel whereRelation. It runs smooth and as expected if the relations between 2 tables is in the same database (DB_A). The problem is when I have to use 2 databases (DB_A and DB_B). In the model relationship I put the connections and there is no problem
// Model user DB_A
protected $connection = 'mysql';
public function address()
{
return $this->hasOne(Address::class, 'id_user');
}
// Model address DB_B
protected $connection = 'mysql2';
protected $table = 'address';
public function user()
{
return $this->belongsTo(User::class, 'id_user');
}
In the query I want to get all the relationship between those 2 tables. The query like:
$data = User::with('address')->reorder('id', 'desc');
$data = $data->whereRelation('address', 'status', '=', 'verified');
I got the error say that table address doesn't exist in DB_A which is belong to DB_B. If i remove the line whereRelation takeplace it doesn't give any errors. How to handle or specify the database name and table name in whereRelation?
EDIT: Both DB_A and DB_B is in different Host.

Answer 1

Try it will hopefully work
Model address DB_B
class User extends Eloquent {
// *******default connection************
public function address() {
return $this->setConnection('mysql')->belongsTo(Address::class, 'id_user');
}
}
Model address DB_B
class Address extends Eloquent {
// *******default connection************
public function user() {
return $this->setConnection('mysql2')->belongsTo(User::class, 'id_user');
}
}
