How to include or exclude where statement in Laravel Eloquent - php

Question

I need the same query for two different user roles. Difference is only in one whereNotIn condition.
So for the Basic user it would be:
$chart2 = DB::connection('mysql2')->table('tv')
->select('*')
->join('epgdata_channel', 'cid', '=', 'channelid')
->where('ReferenceDescription', $campaign->spotid)
->whereNotIn('ChannelName', $sky)
->get();
And for Premium:
$chart2 = DB::connection('mysql2')->table('tv')
->select('*')
->join('epgdata_channel', 'cid', '=', 'channelid')
->where('ReferenceDescription', $campaign->spotid)
->get();
I know I can do it with simple if statement:
if($user->userRole == "Basic"){
//first $chart2
}
else{
//second $chart2}
but I have a lots of queries where I need just to add or remove this whereNotin condition and rewriting the queries (using if statement) is not a nice solution.

Answer 1

Try scope.
In your TVModel.php:
public function scopeConditionalWhereNotIn($query, $doesUse, $col, $val) {
if($doesUse)
$query->whereNotIn($col, $val);
}
Usage:
$condi = true;//or false.
$chart2 = TVModel::select('*')
->join('epgdata_channel', 'cid', '=', 'channelid')
->where('ReferenceDescription', $campaign->spotid)
->conditionalWhereNotIn($condi, 'ChannelName', $sky)
->get();

Answer 2

Inside your model add this:
public function scopeBasicUser($query,$channel){
return $query->whereNotIn('ChannelName', $channel);
}
and in your controller:
$query = DB::connection('mysql2')->table('tv')
->select('*')
->join('epgdata_channel', 'cid', '=', 'channelid')
->where('ReferenceDescription', $campaign->spotid);
if($user->userRole == "Basic")
$query = $query->basicUser($channel);
return $query->get();

Answer 3

$userRole = $user->userRole;
$chart2 = DB::connection('mysql2')->table('tv')
->select('*')
->join('epgdata_channel', 'cid', '=', 'channelid')
->where('ReferenceDescription', $campaign->spotid)
->where(function ($query) use ($userRole){
if($userRole == "Basic"){
$query->whereNotIn('ChannelName', $sky)
}
})
->get();
This code worked for me.
