Suppose one user has many roles.
ankur = admin,editor
salman = editor,author
You need to create 3 tables in your Database. users, roles, and role_user. After creating your table, you need to data insert
cd Directory
php artisan tinker
DB::table('users')->insert(['name'=>'Ankur','created_at'=>new DateTime,'updated_at'=>new DateTime])
DB::table('users')->insert(['name'=>'Salman','created_at'=>new DateTime,'updated_at'=>new DateTime])
DB::table('roles')->insert(['role'=>'admin','created_at'=>new DateTime,'updated_at'=>new DateTime])
DB::table('roles')->insert(['role'=>'editor','created_at'=>new DateTime,'updated_at'=>new DateTime])
DB::table('roles')->insert(['role'=>'author','created_at'=>new DateTime,'updated_at'=>new DateTime])
DB::table('role_user')->insert(['role_id'=>'1','user_id'=>'1','created_at'=>new DateTime,'updated_at'=>new DateTime])
DB::table('role_user')->insert(['role_id'=>'2','user_id'=>'1','created_at'=>new DateTime,'updated_at'=>new DateTime])
DB::table('role_user')->insert(['role_id'=>'2','user_id'=>'2','created_at'=>new DateTime,'updated_at'=>new DateTime])
DB::table('role_user')->insert(['role_id'=>'3','user_id'=>'2','created_at'=>new DateTime,'updated_at'=>new DateTime])
Now you have to create model
cd Directory php artisan make:model user php artisan make:model role
User model:
<?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class user extends Model
{
public function roles()
{
return $this->belongsToMany(Role::class);
/* If your table name is role_users. So You have to pass your table name as the second parameter */
//return $this->belongsToMany(Role::class,'role_users');
}
}
Role model:
<?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class role extends Model
{
public function users()
{
return $this->belongsToMany(User::class);
/* If your table name is role_users. So You have to pass your table name as the second parameter */
//return $this->belongsToMany(User::class,'role_users');
}
}
Retrieve the related record:
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\user;
class HomeController extends Controller
{
public function index(){
$roles = user::find(2)->roles;
//$roles = user::find(2)->roles()->orderBy('role')->get();
return view('welcome',compact('roles'));
}
}
