3 Way pivot table help

Lol. I think you and I are currently writing the same software - I currently have your issue, and the exact same table names.

As far as I know, there is no easy solution to this. Laravel does not support three way pivots - but there is this Laravel 4 library that might help: https://github.com/jarektkaczyk/Eloquent-triple-pivot

I'm extremely inexperienced, so take what I say with a grain of salt. I'm currently considering creating joining tables that contain three id's in them, and then writing my own logic on the model to make it work for my requirements.

http://laravel.com/docs/5.1/eloquent-relationships#many-to-many

By default, only the model keys will be present on the pivot object. If your pivot table contains extra attributes, you must specify them when defining the relationship:

return $this->belongsToMany('App\Role')->withPivot('project_id');

@mstnorris i have no other attributes to my pivot table.

pivot table: project_role_user(project_id, role_id,user_id)

using tinker how would i write to this table?

ive tried $project ->role()->attach(1); this wouldnt work as it would try add to project_role table

hey, im encountering something similar. did anyone ever make any progress on it? im currently stuck between a custom 3way pivot model and table, or giving my many2many relationships in one table a true primary key to tie to another table to have many to many relationships on that as well
