real-time data finder - search with multiple models - laravel

Question

i need to make my search engine work with multiple data tables
right now get data from the model "Registro".
public function buscador(){
return view('posts.index');
}
public function search(Request $request){
$results = Registro::where('cliente', 'LIKE', "%{$request->search}%")->get();
return view('posts.results', compact('results'))->with(['search' => $request->search])->render();
}
public function show(Request $request){
$post = Registro::findOrFail($request->id);
return view('posts.post', compact('post'))->render();
}
can search with multiple models?

Answer 1

Multiple ways to do it
1-relation between these tables
and then use conditional with
example
$results = Registro::with(['relation' => function ($query) use ($request->variable) {
$query->where('relation_column', '=', $request->variable);
}])->where('cliente', 'LIKE', "%{$request->search}%")->get();
return view('posts.results', compact('results'))->with(['search' => $request->search])->render();
2- get all results from registro an then map it and for each index do a search in your other table with where inside
$results = Registro::where('cliente', 'LIKE', "%{$request->search}%")->get();
foreach($results as $result){
$res2=OtherTable::where('column',$result->something)->get();
if(sizeof($res2)){
//there is data do something
}
}
