I have three tables locations, unique_routes and tours, migration example is below.
// locations table
public function up() {
Schema::create('locations', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('name')->unique();
// extra data ...
});
}
// unique_routes table
public function up() {
Schema::create('unique_routes', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->integer('location_id_1')->unsigned();
$table->integer('location_id_2')->unsigned();
// extra data ...
});
Schema::table('unique_routes', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->foreign('location_id_1')->references('id')->on('locations')->onDelete('cascade');
$table->foreign('location_id_2')->references('id')->on('locations')->onDelete('cascade');
});
}
// tours table
public function up() {
Schema::create( 'tours', function ( Blueprint $table ) {
$table->increments( 'id' );
// extra data ...
$table->integer( 'unique_route_id' )->unsigned();
$table->boolean( 'reverse_route' )->default( 0 );
// extra data ...
} );
Schema::table( 'tours', function ( Blueprint $table ) {
$table->foreign( 'unique_route_id' )->references( 'id' )->on( 'unique_routes' );
} );
}
And Models:
class Tour extends Model {
public function unique_route() {
return $this->belongsTo( Route::class, 'route_id', 'id' );
}
}
class UniqueRoute extends Model {
public function location_one() {
return $this->belongsTo('App\Location', 'location_id_1', 'id');
}
public function location_two() {
return $this->belongsTo('App\Location', 'location_id_2', 'id');
}
}
If I need location one name from unique route from tour:
$tour->route->location_one->name
It works OK.
The problem is that sometimes I need location_two object if "reverse_route" on tours is true! The question that I have is, how can I set conditional on Model? Or is there another approach?

it seems that I need to save the original model on the newly generated model in order to save the relation correctly.
I hope the below test case illustrates my problem:
// migrations
Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->id();
$table->string('name');
$table->timestamps();
});
Schema::create('posts', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->id();
$table->bigInteger('user_id')->nullable();
$table->timestamps();
});
//models
class User extends Model
{
public function posts()
{
return $this->hasMany(Post::class);
}
}
class Post extends Model
{
public function user()
{
return $this->belongsTo(User::class)
->withDefault(['name' => 'Guest User']);
}
}
//test
public function test_foreign_key()
{
$post = factory(Post::class)->create();
$user = $post->user; // created from ->withDefault()
$user->save();
$this->assertNotNull($post->user);
$this->assertNotNull($post->user_id);
}
With additional association of the original model the test passes:
public function test_foreign_key_associates()
{
$post = factory(Post::class)->create();
$post->user->save();
$this->assertNotNull($post->user);
$post->user()->associate($post);
$this->assertNotNull($post->user_id);
}
edit: what I'm doing right now is the following for the withDefault relationship:
class Post extends Model
{
public function user()
{
return $this->belongsTo(User::class)
->withDefault(function (User $user, Post $post) {
$user->name = "Guest User";
$user->save();
$post->user_id = $user->id;
});
}
}
Having multiple tables with data that relates to each other, i'm trying to display that data in a view using Laravel.
I must be confused with how Laravel runs its queries and I need help to sort how to do, what in PHP&SQL would be a left join.
My Asset Model:
public function category(){
return $this->hasOne(Category::class);
}
My Category Model:
public function asset()
{
return $this->belongsTo(Asset::class);
}
My Country Model:
public function country()
{
return $this->belongsTo(Asset::class);
}
And my AssetsController:
public function asset($id)
{
$asset = Asset::find($id);
return view('admin.assets.asset')->with('assets', $asset);
}
And the Router:
Route::get('/admin/assets/asset/{id}', [
'uses' => 'AssetsController#asset',
'as' => 'assets.asset'
//Show the Asset
]);
And the View:
<p><strong>Price:</strong>{{$assets->price}} €</p>
<p><strong>Description:</strong>{{$assets->description}}</p>
<p><strong>Country:</strong>{{$assets->country}}</p>
<p><strong>Category:</strong>{{$assets->name}}</p>
So in the 'asset.blade.php' I get the id from a previous index.blade.php that has a list of all the assets. I want to get via the ID, an asset page that displays the category name and the country name, instead of the ID that belongs to the Asset table.
So it should echo something like $assets->country->country_name and $assets->category->name
dd($asset);
EDIT: Additional information about migrations
categories_table migration
public function up()
{
Schema::create('categories', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('name');
$table->string('url');
$table->timestamps();
});
}
assets_table migration:
public function up()
{
Schema::create('assets', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('name');
$table->double('price',15,2);
$table->mediumText('description');
$table->integer('country');
$table->integer('category');
$table->integer('subcategory');
$table->integer('subsubcategory');
$table->integer('broker');
$table->string('featured');
$table->string('slug');
$table->timestamps();
});
}
Got it working.
class Category
{
public function asset()
{
return $this->hasMany(Asset::class);
}
}
class Asset
{
public function category()
{
return $this->belongsTo(Category::class);
}
}
use App\Asset;
use App\Category;
use App\Country;
use App\Subcategory;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class AssetController extends Controller
{
public function asset($id)
{
$asset = Asset::find($id);
return view('admin.assets.asset')
->with('asset', $asset)
->with('category', Category::all())
->with('subcategory', Subcategory::all())
->with('country', Country::all());
}
}
The other models have the same relationship towards the Asset model and vice-versa.
The View:
<p><strong>Category:</strong>{{$asset->category->name}}</p>
<p><strong>Sub-Category:</strong>{{$asset->subcategory->name}}</p>
It now shows the name matching the id of the corresponding tables.
I kow this is known subject discussed but I'm not getting the issue solved.
This is my current app model design:
Institution is the parent model of the app, which has many branches
Branch model has a polymorphic relationship with Building model (child enttity)
Classroom model belongs to Building model (1 Building, M Classroom)
I have a show.blade.php view where I list a Branch and I have 2 tabs for Buildings & Classrooms.
I can show each building for that branch but when I can' get to show all the classrooms in that branch (the relatioship is branch->building->classroom)
I have to solve this with a custom query in controller and then pass the result to the view or there is another approach?
Im trying to show classrooms from each institution ... but classrooms are related to builings.
$a=App\Institution::find(1); //OK
$a->branches; //OK
$a->buildings; //OK
$a->buildings->classrooms //Exception with message 'Property [classrooms] does not exist on this collection instance.
Regards
Institution Model
public function branches()
{
return $this->hasMany(Branch::class);
}
public function buildings()
{
return $this->morphMany('App\Building', 'buildingable');
}
Branch Model
public function institution()
{
return $this->belongsTo(Institution::class);
}
public function buildings()
{
return $this->morphMany('App\Building', 'buildingable');
}
Building Model
public function buildingable()
{
return $this->morphTo();
}
public function classrooms()
{
return $this->hasMany(Classroom::class);
}
Classroom Model
public function building()
{
return $this->belongsTo(Building::class);
}
TABLE STRUCTURES
public function up()
{
Schema::create('institutions', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->timestamps();
$table->string('inst_name', 30);
$table->string('inst_id_type', 10);
$table->string('inst_id_number', 10);
$table->string('inst_country', 15);
$table->string('inst_type', 15);
});
public function up()
{
Schema::create('branches', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->timestamps();
$table->string('branch_name', 30);
$table->string('branch_id_type', 10);
$table->string('branch_id_number', 10);
$table->string('branch_country', 15);
$table->string('branch_type', 15);
$table->integer('institution_id');
});
}
public function up()
{
Schema::create('buildings', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->timestamps();
$table->string('building_name', 30);
$table->integer('buildingable_id');
$table->string('buildingable_type');
});
}
public function up()
{
Schema::create('classrooms', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->timestamps();
$table->string('classroom_name', 20);
$table->integer('building_id');
$table->integer('employee_id');
});
}
$a->buildings->classrooms is the problem. $a->buildings is a collection, not an eloquent model. To get the classrooms of each building, you could use a foreach loop or the each() function on the connection.
foreach example:
foreach($a->buildings as $building) {
$classrooms = $building->classrooms;
// Do stuff here...
}
each() example:
$a->buildings->each(function ($building) {
$classrooms = $building->classrooms;
// Do stuff here...
}
I hope this thread find everyone healthy.
What is wrong with the following code? I am getting an error on my many to many relationship. For the past 4 hours i am stuck with this problem. I would be very thankful if you find the bug or source of problem.
Here is my code and tables:
Schema::create('products', function(Blueprint $table)
{
$table->increments('id');
$table->integer('category');
$table->string('thumbnail');
$table->string('images');
$table->string('logo');
$table->string('main_photo');
$table->timestamps();
});
//categories table
Schema::create('product_categories', function(Blueprint $table)
{
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('category');
});
//relationship table
Schema::create('product_productcategory', function(Blueprint $table)
{
$table->increments('id');
$table->integer('product_id'); // the id of the bear
$table->integer('productcategories_id'); // the id of the picnic that this bear is at
});
products model:
class Product extends Model
{
protected $table = 'products';
public function product_category() {
return $this->belongsToMany('App\product_category', 'App\product_productcategory', 'product_id', 'productcategories_id');
}
}
And pivot model
class product_category extends Model
{
protected $table = 'product_categories';
public function product() {
return $this->belongsToMany('App\Product', 'App\product_productcategory', 'productcategories_id', 'product_id');
}
}
Thanks in advance!
Updates: The problem is solved thanks to #mimo.
But now i want to translate the categories in different languages so i created a table like this:
Schema::create('category_translations', function(Blueprint $table)
{
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('name');
$table->integer('category_id')->unsigned();
$table->foreign('category_id')->references('id')->on('product_categories')->onDelete('cascade');
$table->integer('locale_id')->unsigned();
$table->foreign('locale_id')->references('id')->on('locales')->onDelete('cascade');
$table->unique(['category_id', 'locale_id']);
});
And my product categories with new relationship to the translations
class product_category extends Model
{
protected $table = 'product_categories';
public function product() {
//return $this->belongsToMany('App\Product', 'App\product_productcategory', 'productcategories_id', 'product_id');
return $this->belongsToMany('App\Product', 'product_productcategory');
}
public function translation($lang) {
return $this->hasMany('App\Category_Translation')->where('locale_id', '=', $lang);
}
}
And in category translation:
class Category_Translation extends Model
{
protected $table = 'category_translations';
public function product_category() {
return $this->belongsTo('App\product_category');
}
}
And finally my Product:
class Product extends Model
{
protected $table = 'products';
public function translation($lang) {
return $this->hasMany('App\Product_Translation')->where('locale_id', '=', $lang);
}
public function product_category() {
//return $this->belongsToMany('App\product_category', 'App\product_productcategory', 'product_id', 'productcategories_id');
//return $this->belongsToMany('App\product_category', 'product_productcategory');
return $this->belongsToMany('App\product_category', 'product_productcategory')->translation(1);
}
}
Now when i run:
$product = App\Product::find(1)->first();
echo $product->product_category;
I get error:
Call to undefined method Illuminate\Database\Query\Builder::translation()
Your migration file is wrong:
//relationship table
Schema::create('product_productcategory', function(Blueprint $table)
{
$table->integer('product_id')->unsigned()->index(); // the id of the bear
$table->foreign('product_id')->references('id')->on('products');
$table->integer('productcategories_id')->unsigned()->index(); // the id of the picnic that this bear is at
$table->foreign('productcategories_id')->references('id')->on('product_categories');
});
This code will made the relationship on the database level.
When you have 12 min free time you can check out this tutorial about many to many relationships in laravel:
https://laracasts.com/series/laravel-5-fundamentals/episodes/21
Update:
you need to update your relationships too:
class Product extends Model
{
protected $table = 'products';
public function product_category() {
return $this->belongsToMany('App\product_category', 'product_productcategory');
}
}
and:
class product_category extends Model
{
protected $table = 'product_categories';
public function product() {
return $this->belongsToMany('App\Product', 'product_productcategory');
}
}
I have a many to many relationship between products and a product_categories tables. Now I want to create a translation table for categories.
But how do I relate them in eloquent? i am learning database relationships so forgive my ignorance.
Here is my tables:
//languages
Schema::create('locales', function(Blueprint $table)
{
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('code', 2);
$table->string('name');
});
//products
Schema::create('products', function(Blueprint $table)
{
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('thumbnail');
$table->timestamps();
});
//categories
Schema::create('product_categories', function(Blueprint $table)
{
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('category');
});
//relationship table
Schema::create('product_productcategory', function(Blueprint $table)
{
$table->integer('product_id')->unsigned()->index(); // the id of the bear
$table->foreign('product_id')->references('id')->on('products');
$table->integer('product_category_id')->unsigned()->index(); // the id of the picnic that this bear is at
$table->foreign('product_category_id')->references('id')->on('product_categories');
});
//category translations
Schema::create('category_translations', function(Blueprint $table)
{
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('name');
$table->integer('category_id')->unsigned();
$table->foreign('category_id')->references('id')->on('product_categories')->onDelete('cascade');
$table->integer('locale_id')->unsigned();
$table->foreign('locale_id')->references('id')->on('locales')->onDelete('cascade');
$table->unique(['category_id', 'locale_id']);
});
Product Model:
class Product extends Model
{
protected $table = 'products';
public function product_category() {
return $this->belongsToMany('App\product_category', 'product_productcategory')->translation(1);
}
}
Product categories:
class product_category extends Model
{
protected $table = 'product_categories';
public function product() {
return $this->belongsToMany('App\Product', 'product_productcategory');
}
}
Category Translations
class Category_Translation extends Model
{
protected $table = 'category_translations';
public function product_category() {
return $this->belongsTo('App\product_category');
}
}
But when i run:
$product = App\Product::find(1)->first();
echo $product->product_category;
I get error:
Call to undefined method Illuminate\Database\Query\Builder::translation()
You should not call translation in the Product model category relation (because you still interacting with the query builder), instead you should access the translation as a property on the category object:
echo $product->product_category->first()->getTranslatedIn(1)->name;
So you could refactor your code like this:
Product Model:
class Product extends Model
{
protected $table = 'products';
public function product_category() {
return $this->belongsToMany('App\product_category', 'product_productcategory');
}
}
Product categories:
class product_category extends Model
{
protected $table = 'product_categories';
public function product() {
return $this->belongsToMany('App\Product', 'product_productcategory');
}
public function translations() {
return $this->hasMany('App\Category_Translation', 'category_translations');
}
// relation filtered by language (cannot be accessed as a property unless you define the parameter as optional)
public function translatedIn($language) {
return $this->hasOne('App\Category_Translation', 'category_id')->where('locale_id', $language);
}
// access translated object
public function getTranslatedIn($language) {
return $this->translatedIn($language)->getResults();
}
}
