Laravel: get data from related tables (json array column) - json

Question

I have 2 related tables
teams:
| id | name | game_id | user_id |
|----|----------|---------------|---------|
| 1 | EA Games | ["1","2"] | 1 |
| 2 | Nintendo | ["1"] | 2 |
| 3 | HoG | ["3","4","5"] | 1 |
games:
| id | name |
|----|----------|
| 1 | Cod MW |
| 2 | FIFA |
Controller:
public function showManage()
{
$teams = Teams::where('user_id', Auth::user()->id)->where('enabled', '!=', 0)->get();
return view('teams.manage.index', ['teams' => $teams]);
}
View:
#foreach ($teams as $item)
<div class="col-md-2 text-center">
<div class="team-item">
<div class="team-image">
<img src="/images/teams/logo/{{$item->logo}}" alt="{{$item->name}}">
</div>
<div class="team-text">
{{$item->name}}
</div>
<ul>
<li> Game Name 1 </li>
<li> Game Name 2 </li>
<li> Game Name 3 </li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
#endforeach
Team Model:
<?php
namespace App;
use App\User;
use App\Games;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class Teams extends Model
{
protected $table = 'teams';
public function captain()
{
return $this->hasOne(User::class, 'id', 'user_id');
}
public function game()
{
return $this->hasMany(Games::class, 'id', 'game_id');
}
}
Each user can have many teams with different game_ids and i wan't to show game name for each team for my user
How can i join to my game table?
Sorry for my bad English

Answer 1

Having a json field make it impossible to do it with a database statement.
Note that JSON columns cannot have a default value, be used as a primary key, be referenced as a foreign key or have an index. You can create secondary indexes on generated virtual columns, but it’s possibly easier to retain an indexed value in a separate field.
With the current structure, your only solution is to loop the results and do another query for the games.
Changing the structure will be a better solution where you have another table game_team with ids of teams and games as composite key. Then it will be as easy as running this (with the right belongsToMany relation)
$teams = Auth::user()->teams()->with('games')->where('enabled', '!=', 0)->get();

Answer 2

I can fix it with foreach and for loops
Controller:
public function showManage()
{
$teams = Teams::where('user_id', Auth::user()->id)->where('enabled', '!=', 0)->get();
$array = array();
foreach ($teams as $v) {
$data = $v->game_id;
$array[$v->id] = array(
'games' => array(
)
);
$games = Games::whereIn('id', $data)->get();
foreach ($games as $k) {
array_push($array[$v->id]['games'], $k->name);
}
}
return view('teams.manage.index', ['teams' => $teams, 'data' => $array]);
}
View:
#foreach ($teams as $item)
<div class="col-md-2 text-center">
<div class="team-item">
<div class="team-image">
<img src="/images/teams/logo/{{$item->logo}}" alt="{{$item->name}}">
</div>
<div class="team-text">
{{$item->name}}
</div>
<ul>
#foreach ($data[$item->id] as $v)
#for ($i = 0; $i < count($v); $i++)
<li> {{$v[$i]}} </li>
#endfor
#endforeach
</ul>
</div>
</div>
#endforeach
