how to retrieve multiple table data with multiple criteria in laravel eloquent? - laravel

Question

I want to retrieve data from 4 different table using laravel eloquent with multiple criteria.
an Overview of my table;
table 1
id
name
table 2
id
name
year
table1_id
table 3
id
name
description
table2_id
table 4
id
name
quarter
table3_id
below are their relations
table 1
hasMany -> table 2
table 2
belongsTo ->table1
HasMany->table2
table 3
belongsTo ->table2
HasMany->table3
table 4
belongsTo ->table3
I'd like to fetch the data by resource show with two parameters
and i tried this
$Report = Table1::whereHas('tabke1', function($query){
$query->where('year', 'like','%'.$year.'%');
})
->with('table2')->whereHas('table3', function($query){
$query->where('quarter', 'like', '%'.$quarters.'%');
})
->get();
but im receiving syntax error.
How can I retrieve the data from multiple table with multiple filter?
i tried this table query to understand more what i expect
SELECT `table1`.*, `table2`.*, `table3`.*, `table4`.*
FROM `table1`, `table2`, `table3`, `table4`
WHERE ((`table2`.* year = 2019) AND (`table4`.* quarter = 1))

Answer 1

I reckon there are two queries to achieve the results.
The first query is something like:
Table1::whereHas('table2', function ($query) {
$query->where('year', 2019);
})
->whereHas('table2.table3.table4', function ($query) {
$query->where('quarter', 1);
})
->get();
The second query is something like:
Table1::select('table1.*')
->join('table2', 'table1.id', '=', 'table2.table1_id')
->join('table3', 'table2.id', '=', 'table3.table2_id')
->join('table4', 'table3.id', '=', 'table4.table3_id')
->where('table2.year', 2019)
->where('table4.quarter', 1)
->distinct()
->get();
Regarding performance, I prefer the second query.
