Why extended class does not have the relationship in Laravel with Modules? - php

Question

I have a Person class (App\Models\Person) and an Organization class (App\Models\Organization) which have a polymorphic relationship with User (App\Models\User). I am using Modules (nwidart/laravel-modules).
In my App\Providers\AppServiceProvider in the boot method I have this relationship:
Relation::morphMap(
[
'organizations' => 'App\Models\Organization',
'persons' => 'App\Models\Person',
]
);
Now, I have a module called Contracts, that module has a Person model (Modules\Contracts\Entities\Person) which extends from App\Models\Person. I also have a User model (Modules\Contracts\Entities\User) which extends from App\Models\User.
I added the following code to the ContractsServiceProvider boot method:
Relation::morphMap(
[
'persons' => 'Modules\Contracts\Entities\Person',
]
);
Now, if I go to any controller and I load a Person like this:
$person = \App\Models\Person::find( 1 );
The relationship with User doesn't exist, so I can't do $person->users()->first();
But if I load a Person like this:
$person = \Modules\Contracts\Entities\Person::find( 1 );
The relationship works like a charm.
The fun part is that all the relationship methods with users are inside the files User.php and Person.php in the app\Models directory.
In app\Models\User.php I have:
class User extends Authenticatable implements MustVerifyEmail {
public function usable()
{
return $this->morphTo();
}
}
In my app\Models\Person.php
class Person extends Model {
public function users()
{
return $this->morphMany( User::class, 'usable', 'usable_type', 'usable_id' );
}
}
Also, when I create an \App\Models\Userfrom an \App\Models\Person like this:
$person = \App\Models\Person::find( 1 );
$person->users()->create( [ ... ] );
The record in the database in the users table is like this:
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| id | email | usable_id | usable_type |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 1 | some#email.com | 3 | App\Models\Person |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
But if I create the user from a \Modules\Contracts\Entities\Person like this:
$person = \Modules\Contracts\Entities\Person::find( 1 );
$person->users()->create( [ ... ] );
The record in the database in the users table is like this:
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| id | email | usable_id | usable_type |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 1 | some#email.com | 3 | persons |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
I wonder if the ContractsServiceProvider is somehow overriding the AppServiceProvider and causing my relationship to fail. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
