9 months ago admin Laravel

In this tutorial, we will see how to use model scope in a relationship in Laravel, let's assume that we have an articles table each article has a published field and we have a scope inside the article model to get only the published articles, now we want to get the published articles of a given user using the relationship.


Create the article model

First, let's create the article model inside we have the scope to get only the published articles.

                                                    
                                                                                                                
<?php

namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;

class Article extends Model
{
    use HasFactory;

    public function scopePublished($query)
    {
        return $query->where('published', 1);
    }
}


Use the scope inside the relationship

Next, inside the user model, we use the model scope published to get only the published articles of each user.

                                                        
                                                                                                                        
<?php

namespace App\Models;

// use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\MustVerifyEmail;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
use Laravel\Sanctum\HasApiTokens;

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use HasApiTokens, HasFactory, Notifiable;

    /**
     * The attributes that are mass assignable.
     *
     * @var array<int, string>
     */
    protected $fillable = [
        'name',
        'email',
        'password'
    ];

    /**
     * The attributes that should be hidden for serialization.
     *
     * @var array<int, string>
     */
    protected $hidden = [
        'password',
        'remember_token',
    ];

    /**
     * The attributes that should be cast.
     *
     * @var array<string, string>
     */
    protected $casts = [
        'email_verified_at' => 'datetime',
        'password' => 'hashed',
    ];

public function articles() { return $this->hasMany(Article::class)->published(); } }
