HasMany Eloquent Relationship Example

HasMany() relationship is a very basic relation. For example a company model might be associated with many customer. and a customer model might be associated with many company. Hope you will understand its relationship.

Let’s start code to better unserstand laravel hasmany eloquent relationship.So first create a fresh laravel app to do it.

 

Create-Project

Run this command to download a fresh laravel app

composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel eloquent

 

Create Database Migration

We need two table for hasmany eloquent relationship example. One customer and other is compnay . so run two below commands to create migration 

php artisan make:model Company -m
php artisan make:model Customer -m

 

here -m for creating migration to corresponding model . Hope you understand. after running those command we have two table in our database/migrations folder. So open this two table and paste below code to two table.

Company table

public function up()
{
    Schema::create('companies', function (Blueprint $table) {
        $table->bigIncrements('id');
        $table->string('name');
        $table->timestamps();
    });
}

 

And this is our customer table

public function up()
{
    Schema::create('customers', function (Blueprint $table) {
        $table->bigIncrements('id');
        $table->string('name');
        $table->string('email');
        $table->integer('company_id');
        $table->timestamps();
        $table->foreign('company_id')->references('id')->on('companies')->onDelete('cascade');
    });
}

 

Our table is completed. Run below command to migrate those table into our database.

php artisan migrate

 

Now time to setup our relationship between company and customer. Se mind that one company might have many customer. So go to your company model and paste the below code.

namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
 
class Company extends Model
{
    public function customers(){
   	return $this->hasMany(Customer::class);
 
   }
 
}

 

And we will create another relationship to customer to company. So paste below code to your customer model .

namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
 
class Customer extends Model
{
    public function company()
    {
    	return $this->belongsTo(Company::class);
    }
}

 

Create Controller

 

Now we have to create our controller. To create controller , run following command

php artisan make:controller EloquentController

 

After creating controller. Now paste this following code to your EloquentController.php

app/Http/Controllers/EloquentController.php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use App\Company;
use App\Customer;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class EloquentController extends Controller
{
    public function Home()
    {
    	$companies = Company::all();
        return view('welcome',compact('companies'));
    }
}

 

Now time to setup our route. to create route just paste the following code.

Route::get('/','EloquentController@Home');
