Eloquent IF clause - always returns true - php

Question

I am using Entrust's default table structure:
permissions table:
+--------------+------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+--------------+------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| id | int(10) unsigned | NO | PRI | NULL | auto_increment |
| name | varchar(255) | NO | UNI | NULL | |
| display_name | varchar(255) | YES | | NULL | |
| description | varchar(255) | YES | | NULL | |
| created_at | timestamp | NO | | NULL | |
| updated_at | timestamp | NO | | NULL | |
+--------------+------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
permission_role table:
+---------------+------------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+---------------+------------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| permission_id | int(10) unsigned | NO | PRI | NULL | |
| role_id | int(10) unsigned | NO | PRI | NULL | |
+---------------+------------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
roles table:
+--------------+------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+--------------+------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| id | int(10) unsigned | NO | PRI | NULL | auto_increment |
| name | varchar(255) | NO | UNI | NULL | |
| display_name | varchar(255) | YES | | NULL | |
| description | varchar(255) | YES | | NULL | |
| created_at | timestamp | NO | | NULL | |
| updated_at | timestamp | NO | | NULL | |
+--------------+------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
Now, given a role_id I'd like to get select the following from this database:
permissions.id
permissions.display_name
whether the permission_role table contains an entry with the permission_id and the given role_id
The last one turned out to be a bit tricky in Eloquent.
This SQL query accomplishes exactly what I need (ID is obviously replaced by a valid role ID):
SELECT p.id, p.display_name, IF(pr.role_id = ID, 1, 0) AS has_role
FROM permissions p
LEFT OUTER JOIN permission_role pr ON p.id = pr.permission_id;
Example output:
+----+--------------+----------+
| id | display_name | has_role |
+----+--------------+----------+
| 1 | Edit users | 1 |
| 2 | View users | 0 |
| 3 | Delete users | 0 |
+----+--------------+----------+
Can anyone help me out here, on how to do this using Eloquent?
I've tried this, but it always returns 1 (true) in the third column, unlike the SQL query (as seen above).
$result = DB::table('permissions')
->leftJoin('permission_role', 'permission_role.permission_id', '=', 'permission_role.role_id')
->select(DB::raw('permissions.id, permissions.display_name, IF(permission_role.role_id = ID, 1, 0) AS has_role'))
->get();
Ideally, I'd like to do this without using DB::raw, although it is completely fine if that is what it takes.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Structurally, the Query Builder query you've shown looks fine.
What does not look fine is the left join. Shouldn't this:
->leftJoin('permission_role', 'permission_role.permission_id', '=', 'permission_role.role_id')
be this:
->leftJoin('permission_role', 'permission_role.permission_id', '=', 'permissions.id')
?
