Eloquent; one model, relation to two models
Hiya all,
I have a legacy database and I am trying to build eloquent around it but I am a little stuck...
I have three tables:
-
Groups -
Records -
Attachments
The attachments table has two fields attachable_id and attachable_type.
The attachable_id can contain a ID for Groups or for Records, with the attachable_type being either record or group.
How can I define a relationship on the attachments model to create a correct relationship for this? (Or two relationships for that).
I tried a where statement on the relation $this->hasMany(Group::class, 'attachable_id', 'id')->where('attachable_type', 'group'); though it fails cause it tries to get the column from the group model.
I have no clue how to do this... Does anyone can point me in the right direction?
