I'm quite new in Laravel and have some question about Laravel SQL query through using polymorphic relationship
The situation is:
I have two different tables in my SQL.
One table 'estates' contains a list of estates and their parameters
Another table is 'type_categories' which contains a list of type categories
Every estate can be related to many type categories and every type category can have many estates (so I use polymorphic relationships many to many).
They are related through the third table ''
So, as a result, I need to do a query, which will find all estates which is related to category, but my user can choose a numerous of category, not just one.
I tried to use function find(1)->estates; which as a parameter have an id of type category, which related estates I tried to find. It works fine, but the problem is, that my user needs to find an estate to several categories and function, but function finds works with just one parameter in the situation we nave polymorphic relation, not with the several parameters as I need.
Is there some way to use several parameters in function find() and also use polymorphism?
Sure, that there exist some other functions for it...
Then I show you my code.
Estates model looks:
<?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Illuminate\Support\Str;
class Estate extends Model
{
protected $fillable = ['title', 'slug', 'estate_text', 'created_by', 'modified_by'];
public function categories() {
return $this->morphToMany('App\TypeCategory', 'categoryable');
}
}
Type categories model looks:
<?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Illuminate\Support\Str;
class TypeCategory extends Model
{
protected $fillable = ['title', 'slug', 'parent_id', 'created_by', 'modified_by'];
public function estates() {
return $this->morphedByMany('App\Estate', 'categoryable');
}
}
And finally, estates controller where I tried to select estates model looks:
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Estate;
use App\TypeCategory;
class EstateController extends Controller {
public function searchEstate() {
$estates = TypeCategory::find(1)->estates;
return view('main', [
'estates' => $estates
] );
}
}
I don't sure it is your problem or not.
try this:
$estates = Estate::whereHas('categories', function ($query) {
$query->whereIn('slug', ['xxx','yyy','zzz']);
})->get();

I have a navigation model that can have many items associated with it:
<?php
namespace App\Models;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Relations\HasMany;
use JetBrains\PhpStorm\ArrayShape;
use Laravel\Scout\Searchable;
class Navigation extends Model
{
use HasFactory;
use Searchable;
protected $guarded = [];
public function navigation_items(): HasMany
{
return $this->hasMany(NavigationItem::class);
}
}
The navigation item model looks like this
<?php
namespace App\Models;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Relations\BelongsTo;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Relations\MorphTo;
class NavigationItem extends Model
{
use HasFactory;
protected $guarded = [];
public function navigation(): BelongsTo
{
return $this->belongsTo(Navigation::class);
}
public function navigatable(): MorphTo
{
return $this->morphTo();
}
}
Now an item can either be of type Page or Blog, in this case the Page model looks like this:
<?php
namespace App\Models;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Relations\MorphOne;
use JetBrains\PhpStorm\ArrayShape;
use Laravel\Scout\Searchable;
class Page extends Model
{
protected $guarded = [];
public function navigatable(): MorphOne
{
return $this->morphOne(NavigationItem::class, 'navigatable');
}
}
When I try to save a navigation model and associate it with a item, the following error appears:
SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1364 Field 'navigatable_type' doesn't have a default value
I save the model like this:
foreach ($this->selected as $id) {
$this->navigation->navigation_items()->create([
'navigation_id' => $this->navigation->id,
]);
Where $this->selected is the navigation id, it should automatically get the correct navigatable_type and navigatable_id, but this doesn't seem to be working.
passing in the type and id manually works, but this kinda defeats the point of a polymorphic relationship.
any ideas?
On NavigationItem model, since you defined polymorphic relation as 'navigatable' it is expected that NavigationItem model's table contains navigatable_type and navigatable_id. First please ensure this checks out.
Creating records through relation's base function is not a valid method. It is not clear what you are trying to achieve there but when you want to set relation there is two standard way of achieving it:
1- Associate
When a relation is defined as belongsTo, you may use associate() function. Like so:
$account = Account::find(10);
$user->account()->associate($account);
2- Attach
Attach is used when relation is defined belongsToMany (pivot). It allows you to attach multiple records to a model instance/record.
$user = User::find(1);
$user->roles()->attach($roleId);
So if you want to set a 'navigatable' to a Navigation instance, you may:
$somePageInstance=Page::find(55);
$nagivation->navigatable()->associate($somePageInstance)
$nagivation->save();//remember to save, otherwise it won't be
I'm obviously missing something. I thought I was comfortable around laravel relationships...
I've 2 tables, named ratings and ratingdetails. The models are named Rating & Ratingdetail:
<?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class Rating extends Model
{
public function ratingdetails()
{
return $this->hasMany('App\Ratingdetail');
}
public function campaigns()
{
return $this->hasMany('App\Campaign');
}
}
and
<?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Spatie\Translatable\HasTranslations;
class Ratingdetail extends Model
{
use HasTranslations;
public $translatable = ['value'];
public function rating()
{
return $this->belongsTo('App\Rating');
}
}
When I try to access to my Rating model it works fine, but I can't access the relationships; the output is the following, despite there should be 4 Ratingdetails rows...:
{"id":1,"description":"fontawesome","created_at":null,"updated_at":null,"deleted_at":null}
Thank you all for your time !
$rating = Rating::find($request->rating_id);
return $rating->toJson();
In the above line of code, you're never accessing the ratingdetails relationship. They are not included by default, and need to be loaded before being available:
$rating = Rating::with(["ratingdetails"])->find($request->rating_id);
return $rating->toJson();
Including it via with() will "Eager load" the relationship and expose it to be accessed via
console.log(rating.ratingdetails);
// Will contain an array of 4 objects
Before converting to json, you'd be able to access $rating->ratingdetails, but once converted, you lose access unless you have previously loaded the relationship.
Actually I can't answer for this question without having the Models' $fillable attributes, or without DB Tables structures. But I think your tables have following columns:
"raitings" -> "id", "description", "created_at", "updated_at", "deleted_at"
"raitingdetails" -> "id", "raiting_id", "value", ...
In normal way, you need to create OneToMany relation for that 2 tables with foreign key. So in your "raitingdetails" migration you need to have something like this:
$table->unsignedBigInteger('raiting_id')->nullable();
$table->foreign('raiting_id')->references('id')->on('raitings')->onUpdate('cascade')->onDelete('cascade');
Your models are correct, but it not just cool now.. You can improve them by adding $fillable columns and FKs of relations (Note: if you're using traditional foreign key concept, like "partents.id"->"childs.partent_id", then you can leave this part too).
For getting all Rating details of 1 Rating, you can do this:
$rating = Rating::find($rating_id);
$rating_details_of_one = $rating->ratingdetails()->get()->toJson();
If you want to have Rating Details for all actions, you can add Accessor in your Rating model and attach that to $appends like this:
protected $appends = [ 'rating_details' ]; public function
public function getRatingDetailsAttribute() {
return $this->ratingdetails;
}
And in logic parts you can access like this:
$ratings = Rating::find($rating_id); // this will get with their "ratingdetails" relation
Or you can attach accessor on the fly without protected $appends and getRatingDetailsAttribute() function like this:
$rating = Rating::find($rating_id);
$rating_details_of_one = $rating->setAppends([ 'rating_details' ])->get()->toJSON();
If you want to have some Ratings with their details, you can use something like this:
$rating_details_of_many = Rating::where('description', 'fontawesome')->with('ratingdetails')->get()->toJson();
I have three relational table attached below.

I have also three separate models where defined relation among all of my table's.I can read the City Model's information from Country model using hasManyThrough() relation But cannot read the Country information from City model. I have tried to retrieve City model's using ``hasManyThrough``` but didn't get result (attached as commented country method ). Please read my model and it's relational method here..
Is there someone to help me for getting City model's information using Eloquent method hasManyThrough / hasManyThrough or using inverse of hasManyThrough / hasManyThrough ?
01.
<?php
namespace App\Hrm;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\SoftDeletes;
class Country extends Model
{
//use SoftDeletes;
protected $fillable = ['name','description','status'];
public function districts(){
return $this->hasMany(District::class);
}
public function cities(){
return $this->hasManyThrough(City::class,District::class);
}
}
02.
<?php
namespace App\Hrm;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\SoftDeletes;
class District extends Model
{
//use SoftDeletes;
protected $fillable = ['country_id','name','description','status'];
public function country(){
return $this->belongsTo(Country::class);
}
public function cities(){
return $this->hasMany(City::class);
}
}
3.
namespace App\Hrm;
use App\User;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\SoftDeletes;
class City extends Model
{
//use SoftDeletes;
protected $fillable = ['district_id','name','description','status'];
public function district(){
return $this->belongsTo(District::class);
}
// public function country(){
// return $this->hasOneThrough(Country::class, District::class);
// }
Doesn't look like there is a native way to define the inverse of a "hasManyThrough" relationship yet in Laravel. There have been a few issues opened on github to request it, but they were closed.
You could use the staudenmeir/belongs-to-through package if you don't mind installing a third-party package for this functionality. Then you should be able to define a belongsToThrough relationship like this:
class City extends Model
{
use \Znck\Eloquent\Traits\BelongsToThrough;
public function country() {
return $this->belongsToThrough(Country::class, District::class);
}
}
Why can't use parent method?
$city = City::find(1);
$country = $city->district->country();
i just had a similar situation i was able to accomplish a belongsToThrough with hasOneThrough
public function country()
{
return $this->hasOneThrough(
Country::class, // model we are trying to get
District::class, // model we have an _id to
'id', // WHERE `district`.`id` = `city`.`district_id`
'id', // `countries`.`id`
'district_id', // local column relation to our through class
'country_id' // `district`.`country_id`
);
}
what this should generate is
SELECT * FROM `countries`
INNER JOIN `districts`
ON `districts`.`country_id` = `countries`.`id`
WHERE `districts`.`id` = ?
-- ? == city.district_id
Database structure:
City:
id: increments
district_id: integer
...
Country:
id: increments
...
District:
id: increments
country_id: integer
...
we can then do $city->country
note: i have not fully tested this but with the testing that i have done it 'works'
Edit: i originally thought that i needed to leave the localKey
parameter null otherwise the relation wont work. it turns out i didnt
fully understand what that column was doing and that was wrong. That
key is the local column that relates to our through column (unless i
still have more to learn/figure out), when left the value as null, it
would use the local id column which a. is the wrong value, b. can also
be out of range (which is how i discovered it was using the wrong
value)
in my testing i only had two rows, both with the same relations. what
i didnt realize though was that on the "through table" both row 1 and
2 and the same related (relation where are trying to reach) so i didnt
notice the issue right away. hopefully now its all working
I want to retrieve all post with given category,
i am developing api, at input i will receive category name, and then i want to retrieve that category by its id in posts table,i want to do this because if some changed category name in the future i dont have to change that in my code
i have create like this
PostController.php
public function getPostsByCategory(Request $request)
{
$posts=Posts::where('category',$request->category)->get();
return response()->json(['posts'=>$posts]);
}
Post model
<?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class Posts extends Model
{
protected $fillable = [
'post_title','post_description', 'category', 'user_id',
];
Category Model
<?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class Posts_Category extends Model
{
}
can you please help me with this, please suggest me any idea
i think you are looking for with eager load function
You must store category id not the name of the category..
class Posts extends Model
{
protected $fillable = [
'post_title','post_description', 'category_id', 'user_id',
];
public function category()
{
return $this->belongsTo(Posts_Category::class, 'category_id', 'id');
}
}
use as
$posts = Posts::where('category_id',$request->category)->with('category')->get();
If you really want to search by name
$posts = Posts::whereHas('category', function ($q) {
$q->where('category_name', 'like', "%{$request->category}%");
})->get();
You can fetch the category by its name first, and then filter posts by category id
public function getPostsByCategory(Request $request)
{
$category = Posts_Category::whereName($request->category)->firstOrFail();
$posts=Posts::where('category',$category->id)->get();
return response()->json(['posts'=>$posts]);
}
you're doing this the wrong way from the get go. best practice is to store category_id in posts table, of course this is only if you need a one-to-many relation between posts and categories table. plus I wouldn't recommend to break the convention of naming models unless you have no other way. I suggest you to read this section more thorough
https://laravel.com/docs/5.6/eloquent-relationships
Please i need a fix solution to this, i want to fetch all the latest post from a specific category in my laravel blog project
These are my models
Category model
public function posts()
{
return $this->belongsToMany('App\Post')->withTimestamps();
}
Post model
public function categories()
{
return $this->belongsToMany('App\Category')->withTimestamps();
}
What's they next thing to do?
please help
$posts = Posts::where('category_id', $category->id)->get();
I have the database structure that have a classes table, a users table and users_classes table that matches the other two, because a user can belong to multiple classes. I have a problem now. I have code like this:
<?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB;
class Classes extends Model
{
protected $table = 'classes';
public function students()
{
}
}
And I want to be able to access the students of the class by typing $class = Classes::find(1) and then $class->students to access the students. How do I define the relationship without using the query builder? I want to use eloquent. Im a noobie in Laravel pls dont downvote.
You use a belongsToMany relation.
If your users_classes table has the fields user_id and class_id you can do the following:
public function students()
{
return $this->belongsToMany(Student::class, 'users_classes', 'class_id', 'user_id');
}
