public static $model in Resource

/**
     * The model the resource corresponds to.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    public static $model = \App\Models\User::class;

How can we access this parameter in the Resource class? I try this, but doesnt work...

dd($this->model);

Why static?

You can access it as a static property then: ResourceName::$model

ResourceName should be the name of the class.

If you need the underlying model instance you should use $this->resource
