Here is the scenario:
I have two tables:
family: id, name
person: id, name, familyId
The foreign key is on person (familyId -> family.id)
In my Person model i want to have a relationship that can include all the person entries that have the same familyId as the current person.
Essentially I want to do $person = Person::find([...])->with('family')->all() to get the current Person model, including an array of family members.
So far I have this on PersonModel:
public function getFamilyMembers()
{
return $this->hasMany(Person::className(), ['familyId' => 'familyId']);
}
...
$person = Person::find()
->with('familyMembers')
->where(['id'=>1]);
foreach($person->family as $m) {
var_dump($m);
}
I know I could do this with a junction table. But since it is a 1:n relationship I would like to avoid the extra Table.
Thanks.
The fast decision is something like this query in your person model :
public function getRelatedPersons()
{
return self::find()->jeftJoin(Family::tableName(), 'person.familyId =
family.id')->where(['person.familyId' => $this->familyId])->all();
}
...
foreach($personModel->relatedPersons as $person) {
var_dunp($preson);
}

I have two tables. Customer and address. The relationship of the table is that a CUSTOMER can have many ADDRESSES. So what I want as a result to my query is to get the list of customer and only one latest address
ADDRESS TABLE
id : 1
city:"cebu"
zip_code:"600"
cus_id:1
id:2
city:"mandaue"
zip_code:"6001"
cus_id:1
CUSTOMER TABLE
id: 1
name:"JOHN DOE"
What I want to get the customer "JOHN DOE" and the address with ID "2"
I'm using laravel query builder
If you want to get only one latest address, you can use hasOne same as :
// Customer model relation
public function lastestAddress()
{
return $this->hasOne(Address::class, 'customer_id')->orderBy('id', 'desc');
}
And
$model = Customer::with('lastestAddress')
you can use Eloquent ORM in laravel.
Eloquent :
You must setting in your customer model
Class Customer(){
public function address()
{
return $this->hasMany(Address::class, 'cuss_id', 'id')->latest();
}
in your Adress model :
Class Address(){
public function customer()
{
return $this->belongsTo(Customer::class, 'id', 'cuss_id')
}
Then in your controller you can call the model :
$data = Customer::with('address')->get();
So you have two tables: customers and addresses, with a "one customer can have many addresses" relationship.
In Laravel, we normally use Eloquent models to query the database. So to get a customer and all its addresses, we must first model the database; each table with its own Eloquent model. (See details in the docs.)
class Address extends Model
{
// although empty for now, this class definition is still important
}
class Customer extends Model
{
/**
* Get the latest address.
*/
public function currentAddress()
{
return $this->hasOne(Address::class, 'cus_id')->latestOfMany();
}
}
In the Customer model, our currentAddress() method defines how a Customer instance related to the Address instances.
It's like we're saying,
"A customer may have many Addresses. Just get one which is the latestOfMany. That's how we'll get the customer's currentAddress.
Now that we have the necessary Eloquent models setup, we can lookup John Doe and his current address.
$johnDoeId = 1;
// query the database for customer 1, including its current address
$johnDoe = Customer::with('currentAddress')->find($johnDoeId);
$johnDoe->currentAddress; // 👈 John's latest address, at Mandaue
I have two tables;
Data
id
name
Custom_data
id
data_id (references id on Data)
customer_id (references id on Customers)
name
When I retrieve all items from the database (via for example Data::all()) as Customer X then I want to retrieve values from 'Custom_data' in favor of the data in table 'Data' where the customer_id matches X
Example:
Data contains name 'John Doe' with id 1
Custom_data contains a record with data_id 1 and name 'Jane Doe' and customer_id X
When retrieving the models I want to see Jane Doe instead of John Doe. Can this be done on a Model level in Eloquent? This is just a simple example, in our application we have multiple columns that need to be retrieved (firstname, lastname, street, etc. etc.)
How I am currently retrieving the fields is like this:
public function getNameAttribute($name) {
$customData = CustomData::where('customer_id', $this->customer_id)->where('data_id', $this->id)->first();
if(null != $customData) {
return $customData->name;
} else {
return $name;
}
}
Here' how you can do it:
In your Data.php modal file you need to add relationship:
public function CustomData(){
return $this->hasOne(CustomData::class);
}
Now, you can use CustomData function on eloquent record anywhere in Controller or View at runtime to get related data.
Another approach is to get data on condition basis:
$users = User::select('users.id', 'users.username', 'users.active', 'users.parent_id', 'parent.username as parent_username')
->selectRaw("CASE WHEN GROUP_CONCAT(roles.name) = 'student' THEN user_profiles.secondary_email ELSE users.email END as email");
I've used this type of solution for another purpose where I needed to use email on condition basis.
first you need to define relation in model
class DataModel extends Model{
...
public function customData()
{
return $this->hasMany(CustomDataModel::class,"data_id");
}
}
now you have access to this data.
$data = DataModel::with("customData")->first();
$data->name; // John Doe
$data->customData->name; // Jane Doe
Allright, I think I nailed this one.
I made a hasOne relation in my Data model:
public function custom_data() {
return $this->hasOne('App\Models\CustomData', 'data_id')->where('customer_id', $customer_id);
}
After that, I could fairly easily add the correct accessors like so:
public function getNameAttribute($name) {
return null != $this->custom_data ? $this->custom_data->name : $name;
}
If the custom data attribute has been set, we'll return that. If not, we'll return the original attribute.
I'm trying to query multiple tables using Laravel Eloquent Models with one to one, one to many and many to many relationships.
I have a forms table, a brands table a users table and a brand_groups pivot table.
Each form has one brand and one user:
forms
ID
user_id
brand_id
Brands do not have any foreign keys:
brands
ID
Users do not have any foreign keys:
users
ID
And there is a pivot table to create a many to many relationship for creating brand groups that have many users like brand members:
brand_groups
brand_id
user_id
I'm trying to get all the forms that belong to a user either by a direct ownership (forms.user_id) or by brand membership, all the forms from all the brands that the user is a member through brand_groups many to many pivot table.
For example, we have 2 brands, 2 users and 1 user is a member of 1 brand:
brand(ID: 1)
brand(ID: 2)
user(ID: 1)
user(ID: 2)
brand_group(brand_id: 1, user_id: 1)
form(ID: 1, user_id: 1, brand_id: null)
form(ID: 2, user_id: null, brand_id: 1)
form(ID: 3, user_id: 2, brand_id: 1)
form(ID: 4, user_id: 1, brand_id: 2)
Using Laravel Eloquent Models (not direct DB facade calls), I'd like to retrieve all the forms that belong to a user. For the user(ID:1) there are 3 forms:
form(ID:1) direct user ownership
form(ID:2) user is a member of brand(ID:1) group which is the brand of form(ID:2)
form(ID:3) user is a member of brand(ID:1) group which is the brand of form(ID:3)
I gave it a shot using Eloquent: Relationships - Has Many Through:
Has Many Through
The "has-many-through" relationship provides a convenient way to access distant relations via an intermediate relation.
I have tried it like this:
class User extends Model
{
public function forms()
{
return Forms::hasManyThrough(
Form::class,
BrandGroups::class,
'brand_id',
'brand_id',
'id',
'form_id',
)->where('id', $this->id);
}
}
But I get errors like:
BadMethodCallException with message 'Call to undefined method App\Models\Form::brand_groups()'
EDIT
After some digging, I have managed to come up with the working MySQL code that will return all the forms for a user:
SELECT * FROM `forms`
WHERE EXISTS (
SELECT `brand_id`, `user_id`
FROM `brand_groups`
WHERE `forms`.`brand_id` = `brand_groups`.`brand_id`
AND `brand_groups`.`user_id` = 1
) OR `forms`.`user_id` = 1
Now I just need to convert that query to an eloquent model relation.
Eloquent Models
User.php
class User extends Authenticatable implements MustVerifyEmail
{
public function brands()
{
return $this
->belongsToMany(Brand::class, 'brand_groups')
->using(BrandGroups::class)
->as('member');
}
public function forms()
{
return $this->hasMany(Form::class, 'user_id');
}
}
Brand.php
class Brand extends Model
{
protected $table = 'brands';
public function forms()
{
return $this->hasMany(Form::class);
}
public function members()
{
return $this
->belongsToMany(User::class, 'brand_groups')
->using(BrandGroups::class)
->as('member');
}
}
Form.php
class Form extends Model
{
protected $table = 'forms';
public function owner()
{
return $this->belongsTo(User::class);
}
public function brand()
{
return $this->belongsTo(Brand::class);
}
}
UPDATE
I manage to find a query to get all forms related to a user like this:
class User extends Authenticatable implements MustVerifyEmail
{
...
public function allForms()
{
return Form::where(function ($q) {
$q->whereExists(function ($q) {
$q->from('brand_groups')
->where('forms.brand_id', DB::raw('brand_groups.brand_id'))
->where('brand_groups.user_id', $this->id);
})->orWhere('owner_id', $this->id);
});
}
}
How this can be converted to a direct User model eloquent relationship?
Have you tried to Eager Load the User model relationships?
Edit
Firstly: the pivot table name should be the singular -snake_case- name of both tables and should be in alphabetical order (brand_user)
Next, try the following:
return User::where(‘id’, $this->id)->with([‘forms’,‘brands.forms’)->get();
This should return the Forms with direct ownership plus the user Brands and their associated Forms
Hi iam beginner of laravel ,i have four tables users,students,class,section
users
id
username
password
usertype
Students
id
name
roll no
class_id
section_id
class
id
class_name
sections
id
section_name
when i logged in getting user name and getting role no from student tables by using following method
User.php
public function getAttribute($key)
{$profile = student::where('stud_adm_id', '=', $this->attributes['username'])->first()->toArray();
foreach ($profile as $attr => $value) {
if (!array_key_exists($attr, $this->attributes)) {
$this->attributes[$attr] = $value;
}
}
return parent::getAttribute($key);
}
But i want to get class name and section name from related tables also to show logged in user complete profile....
and in view page called values as shown below
<h4>ID: {{ Auth::user()->roll_no}}</h4>
<h4>Name: {{ Auth::user()->name }}</h4>
Let me know how to get values of class and section also.
You can use Eloquent: Relationships.
Defining relationships in student.php
class Student {
...
public function class() {
$this->belongsTo('App\Class');
}
public function section() {
$this->belongsTo('App\Section');
}
...
}
Then you can retrieve the class and section relationship when you get the student model.
$student = Student::where('stud_adm_id', $username)->first();
$class = $studnet->class;
$section = $student->section;
I'm new to laravel relationship so many apologizes if it's just dumb question. I'm using a pivot table named users_email on the project to get Emails of users. Pivot table contains the foreign key Uid and Email_id. Uid references users table
primary key and the same as Email_id. I can get the result while joining them using QueryBuilder.
$recent_inbox_email=DB::table('users_email')->
join('email','users_email.email_id','=','email.Id')->
join('users','users_email.Uid','=','users.Id')->
where('users_email.Uid','=',$Uid)->
where('email.draft','<>','true')->
where('email.trash','<>','true')->
where('email.status','=','unread')->count();
here's how I define the relationship in my models
public function getUid()//User Model
{
return $this->hasMany("User_Email",'Uid');
}
public function getEmId()//Email Model
{
return $this->hasMany("User_Email",'email_id');
}
//User_Email Model
public function email()
{
return $this->belongsTo('Email','Id','email_id');
}
public function user()
{
return $this->belongsTo('User','Id','Uid');
}
Now I want to query something like this using Eloquent
$query= select * from users_email inner join
email on users_email.email_id=email.Id
inner join users on users_email.Uid=users.Id
where users.Id=users_email.Uid limit 0,10
foreach($query as $emails)
{
echo $emails->f_name;
echo $emails->Message
}

There are no dumb questions. I'll try to give you an explanation! I'm not a pro, but maybe I can help.
Laravel uses some conventions that are not mandatory, but if you use them, things work like a charm.
For example, as a general recommendation, tables should be named in plural (your table users is ok. Your "email" table should be "emails"). The model, should be named in singular. This is User.php for table users, Email.php for table emails.
"The pivot table is derived from the alphabetical order of the related model names...", in this case "email_user". I repeat, you are not obliged to name them like this, as you can specify the table for the model setting the $table property in the model.
Once you have set up things like this, you only have to add this to your User model:
public function emails()
{
return $this->belongsToMany('Email');
}
And in your Email model:
public function users()
{
return $this->belongsToMany('User');
}
The "User" and "Email" between parentheses is the name of the related model.
And that's it. You can now do this:
$user = User::find(1);
foreach($user->emails as $email) {
echo $email->subject . '<br>';
echo $email->message . '<br>';
}
If you decide not to follow conventions, you can still use Eloquent relationships. You have to set up the relationship like this:
public function nameOfRelation()
{
return $this->belongsToMany('NameOfRelatedModel', 'name_of_table', 'foreign_key', 'other_key');
}
In the case of the User model for example:
public function emails()
{
return $this->belongsToMany('Email', 'users_email', 'Uid', 'email_id');
}
And in the email model, the other way round.
The answer got long! I didn't test the code, but this should give you an idea!
You can always check the official Laravel documentation, it is really helpful!
