When I should use hasmany or belongstomany relationship or hasone vs belongsto?
And what is the difference between hasmany vs belongs to many.
Use a hasMany relationship whenever there is a FK for the current Model on the related Model’s table. Model A has many Model B, Model B belongs to Model A
A belongsToMany relation is use whenever we need a pivot table. Model A has many Model B and Model B also has many Model A
@tykus could you please tell me some examples of belongsto many relationships?
@amitsolanki24_ there are myriad examples, e.g.
Book is loaned by multiple User; a User is loaned multiple Book
Order is comprised of multiple Products; a Product is ordered on different Orders
Class is taken by many Students; a Student takes multiple Class
@tykus thanks for your valuable comment.
