Chainings multi-to-one relations in Laravel - mysql

Question

I have 3 models: User, Query, Offer. The relation is that user has many queries and query has many offers.
In controller I use $queries=User->query()->get(); (query() is a hasMany method in User model) and pass it to view as parameter. In view I want to display a table of queries from single user and count all offer made to each query.
Actually what I want to get, is a nested object $queries like
user:
query1:
offer1
offer2
query2:
offer3
offer4
How it should be coupled in models and how to use it in controller and view?

Answer 1

You could have something like:
Class User extends Model{
protected $table = 'users';
public function query(){
return $this->hasMany('App\Query');
}
}
Class Query extends Model{
protected $table = 'queries';
public function offer(){
return $this->hasMany('App\Offer');
}
public function user(){
return $this->belongsto('App\User');
}
}
Class Offer extends Model{
protected $table = 'offers';
public function query(){
return $this->belongsTo('App\Query');
}
}
Then in your controller you can have something like this:
public function showUser($id){
$user = User::with('query.offer')->find($id);
return View::make('user')->with('user', $user);
}
Then in your view you could have something like:
#foreach($user->query as $query)
{{$query->title}}
#foreach($query->offer as $offer)
{{$offer->title}}
{{$offer->amount}}
#endforeach
#endforeach
