accessing nested relationship in laravel 5 - laravel

Question

i have 3 models like below :
Date
Property
PropertyDetail
and here is my migration for tables i write in order
Date :
public function up()
{
Schema::create('dates', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->bigIncrements('id');
$table->dateTime('date');
$table->timestamps();
});
}
Property :
public function up()
{
Schema::create('properties', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->bigIncrements('id');
$table->integer('type');
$table->text('title');
$table->integer('base_capacity');
$table->timestamps();
});
and PropertyDetail :
public function up()
{
Schema::create('property_details', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->bigIncrements('id');
$table->integer('property_id');
$table->string('state');
$table->string('city');
$table->timestamps();
});
}
i tried to remove unnecessarily fields from migration so to keep it clean so here is my 2 relations bettwen date and proeprties
Datemodel :
public function properties() {
return $this->belongsToMany(Property::class);
}
and propery model :
public function dates(){
return $this->belongsToMany(Date::class);
}
public function features(){
return $this->hasMany(Feature::class);
}
ok now finally in my controller i want to do this :
$search = Date::with('properties')
->where('date',$someday)->get()
->and some how here i want to select the city from the property detail table
;
so here is my problem , now i can easily access properties and show thier name but from this relation how can i access features relation and select the city from there should i use joins or some thing there i hope i was clear enough that what i want to do

Answer 1

You can do this:
Property model:
public function details(){
return $this->belongsToMany(Details::class,'property_details','id','property_id');
}
and in Date model:
public function properties() {
return $this->belongsToMany(Property::class);
}
public function propertiesDetails() {
return $this->properties()->with('details');
}
and in your controller you can get detail of properties by use:
$search = Date::with('propertiesDetails')
->where('date',$someday)->get();
now you can access to details of properties.
Hope it helps.
