history() method in Eloquent

Laravel doesn't have a history model. Are you referring to a relation with a History model?

This is from Laravel 5.1 documentation

Sometimes you may need to truly remove a model from your database. To permanently remove a soft deleted model from the database, use the forceDelete method:

// Force deleting a single model instance...
$flight->forceDelete();

// Force deleting all related models...
$flight->history()->forceDelete();

So, I'm interested, what does this history() method do? As I couldn't find any other info about that method.

Hahahaha :) So sorry. Just realized, this is just example how to delete related models :)))

Silly me :))

Years later this confused me as well. To be clear, history is just a made-up Flight relationship used for illustration purposes in the v7 soft query docs, similar to the phone example here. It is not part of Eloquent.
