Laravel JetStream get HasRole of user in resource method - laravel

Question

I am using Laravel Jetstream teams feature and wants to get list of all team members with their role.
following method from JetStream can return role of user
public function teamRole($team)
{
if ($this->ownsTeam($team)) {
return new OwnerRole;
}
if (! $this->belongsToTeam($team)) {
return;
}
return Jetstream::findRole($team->users->where(
'id', $this->id
)->first()->membership->role);
}
When user hits route /teams/{team} I would like to response with all team members name along with their role in team so I have created a TeamResource like following.
class Team extends JsonResource
{
public function toArray($request)
{
return [
'id' => $this->id,
'user_id' => $this->user_id,
'owner_name' => $this->owner->name,
'owner_email' => $this->owner->email,
'name' => $this->name,
'personal_team' => $this->personal_team,
'users' => TeamMemberResource::collection($this->allUsers()),
'created_at' => $this->created_at,
'updated_at' => $this->updated_at,
];
}
}
Following is my TeamMemberResource which is User model
class TeamMember extends JsonResource
{
public function toArray($request)
{
return [
'id' => $this->id,
'first_name' => $this->first_name,
'last_name' => $this->last_name,
'role' => //How do I get user's role in this team
'name' => $this->name,
'email' => $this->email,
'active' => $this->active,
'created_at' => $this->created_at,
'updated_at' => $this->updated_at,
];
}
}
Relationship is User has many Team.
TeamUser table has the column role.
How do I access role of user in given team?
Thank you

The neatest way to do this is to define a separate model for a user within a specific team. Then you don't have to figure out which team you're dealing with. That's probably out of scope for this question, though.
Assuming you want to achieve this using the default models, you need to figure out how to tell the "team member" collection which team it's dealing with.
Start by defining a separate TeamMemberCollection resource. Override the default ResourceCollection constructor, and pass the team as a second argument.
class TeamMemberCollection extends ResourceCollection
{
public $team;
public function __construct($collection, $team)
{
$this->team = $team;
parent::__construct($collection);
}
}
Then update the TeamMember::toArray method to accept a team, and the TeamMemberCollection::toArray method to pass the team.
class TeamMember extends JsonResource
{
public function toArray($request, $team)
{
return [
// Other properties...
'role' => $this->teamRole($team),
];
}
}
class TeamMemberCollection extends ResourceCollection
{
public function toArray($request)
{
return $this->collection
->map
->toArray($request, $this->team)
->all();
}
}
Finally, don't forget to update the Team resource to pass the team to the TeamMemberCollection constructor.
class Team extends JsonResource
{
public function toArray($request)
{
return [
// Other properties...
'users' => new TeamMemberCollection($this->allUsers(), $this),
];
}
}
