I have two models. Business and City.
Business:
id
title
-some columns--
city_id
City:
id
name
How to display the city name, when I get business data to view
I was able to display cities using the laravel voyager lessons
When I want to get it like $business->city_id
If you are using models, you can create a relationship by adding hasOne or hasMany to your model codes.
When you call it from your controller, you can call the relationship you wrote in your model with the 'with' query.
Model
public function city()
{
return $this->hasOne(City::class,'id','cityid');
}
Controller
$business=Business::with('city')->first();
$cityname=$business->city->name;
If you don't use model, you can connect with 'join'
You have 2 options. First, you can get city details on the controller:
Business::with('city')...;
On the blade
$business->city->name;
Other option fetching it on the blade directly. I don't recommend this because of extra database queries.
$business->city()->name;

I am a newbe in Laravel. The docs show how to use relationships like this:
One To Many (Inverse) / Belongs To
Now that we can access all of a post's comments, let's define a relationship to allow a comment to access its parent post. To define the inverse of a hasMany relationship, define a relationship method on the child model which calls the belongsTo method:
namespace App\Models;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class Comment extends Model
{
/**
* Get the post that owns the comment.
*/
public function post()
{
return $this->belongsTo(Post::class);
}
}
Once the relationship has been defined, we can retrieve a comment's parent post by accessing the post "dynamic relationship property":
use App\Models\Comment;
$comment = Comment::find(1);
return $comment->post->title;
My question is: Where is this code? In a controller or in a view?
If you use MVC structure, you should understand that
Model is layer where you store your data
View is layer where you should only display your data
and Controller is layer where you can keep your logic.
If you have a lot of difficult logic or big application, you should better to use Services, as layer between Controllers And Models.
Receiving Comments from model and prepeare them should be in controller level. In view level you just define how to show them to user.
I hope it will help you to understand difference between logic layers.
you can access this relationship in controller or view like this-
suppose you want to make relation between product model and brand model:-
in product model:-
public function brand(){
return $this->belongsTo('App\Model\Brand','brand_id','id');
}
now you are able to see which product belongs to which brand without any query or using loop.
just do in controller:-
$product=Product::with('brand')->get();
here you get all the data...
and when you use it on **view **just do it:
{{$product->brand->brand_name}}
//brand name should the column name
I hope you understood...
Happy Learning!
I am developing a Web application using Laravel. For the admin panel, I am using Laravel Nova. What I am trying to do now is that I need to use data from the table which has relationship through another table. To be, clear, see my database structure below.
items
=====
id
name
price
sub_category_id
sub_categories
==============
id
name
parent_category_id
parent_categories
=================
id
name
What I am trying to achieve inside the Nova is that I want to display the parent category name of the item on the item index/list page. The first thing is that I do not want to create custom attribute something like this in the model
protected $appends = [
'parent_category_name'
];
function getParentCategoryNameAttribute()
{
//code here
}
Therefore, there are two solutions I can think of. The first solution is using the HasThrough relationship. But I cannot find it in Nova. So, I cannot use it. The second solution is that overriding the field value on render. Something like this.
Text::make("fieldname")->fillUsing(function($request, $model, $attribute, $requestAttribute) {
//$model->sub_category->parent_category - then I can return a value
return "Parent category name";
})->onlyOnIndex()
But the above code is not working. So, what would be the best approach to handle the has-through relationship in Nova?
Assuming you have defined the relationship sub_category & parent_category properly.
Define the relationship in Item model as below
public function parent_category()
{
return $this->sub_category->parent_category();
}
Then use it in Item resource as below.
BelongsTo::make('Parent Category')
->hideWhenCreating()
->hideWhenUpdating(),
I have a table named project. In this table I have a column named student_id. Model for this table is Project. And I have another table named user. And model name is User. Now I am retrieving all project table details in a page including student_id. Now I want to show user name instead of student_id. I mean I want to show this student name instead of student id. For example if student_id is 10 then I want to print name for that user from user table whose id is 10.
Any one please help.I have read document from laravel. But i don't know why I am not getting the eloquent concept properly.
Define belongsTo() relationship in Project model class:
public function student()
{
return $this->belongsTo(User::class, 'student_id');
}
And use it:
$project->student->name;
I am working in laravel5.4. I have created four table as ticket, users, and company. Here, I have stored users id in ticket table. And stored company id in users table.
Here, I want to show ticket's user name with that users company name.
Here, I have create relation for it that looks like below.
Ticket model :
public function requesters(){
return $this->belongsTo('App\User','requester_id');
}
Here requester_id is who create ticket.
Users model :
public function company()
{
return $this->belongsTo('App\Models\Admin\Company');
}
Company model :
public function Users()
{
return $this->hasOne('App\Users');
}
Here, I have written query to get users information that looks like below.
Ticket::with('requesters')->orderBy('subject','asc')->paginate(10);
Now, I want to fetch company information or request_id So what changes should I have to do in this query to fetch company info along with ticket and users ?
If you want to to Eager load multiple relationship you can put them all in single with like this:
Ticket::with('requesters','requesters.company')->orderBy('subject','asc')->paginate(10);
but if you load nested relationship you can use shorter notation - you can omit parent relationship, so it's enough to use here:
Ticket::with('requesters.company')->orderBy('subject','asc')->paginate(10);
Try this, it should work for this case:
Ticket::with('requesters')
->with('requesters.company')
->orderBy('subject','asc')->paginate(10);
I'm using Datatables for displaying data. It works good, but when I want to display data from related tables (models), they do not appear.
Model Keyword.php
public function website() {
return $this->belongsToMany('App\Website');
}
Model Website.php
public function keywords() {
return $this->hasMany('App\Keyword');
}
'websites' database table: id, siteName, siteUrl
'keywords' database table: id, website_id, kwName
Url that should display data: projects/'.$website->id.'/edit (example: projects/2/edit - (edit is a blade))
So, at this Url I want to show a datatable that display all kwName for certain website_id(in this example /2/).
Please, help me what should I use and how to do this.
Your Eloquent relationships are the wrong way around.
keywords has a reference to website via website_id, this is a belongsTo relationship.
website is referenced by many keywords, so this is a hasMany relationship.
