Hi, I have this inside my test model:
public function student() { return $this->belongsTo('App\User'); }
and inside my user model:
public function tests() { return $this->hasMany('App\Test'); }
so inside the table user_tests I have a record with user_id 4 and test_id 2. Ofc I have user with id 4 and a test with id 2. In the template I am doing this:
$test->student->firstname
but I get the error that student is no object and in fact is empty. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks a lot
I don't think a user_tests table is necessary in this instance. If I understand your domain correctly, a user has many tests and a test has 1 user. So the following schema should work:
[users table] id, name, ...
[tests table] id, user_id, title, score, ...
Then in the User model:
public function tests()
{
return $this->hasMany('App\Test');
}
Then in the Test model
public function student()
{
return $this->belongsTo('App\User');
}
thanks, in the meanwhile I realized I need a many to many for this relation...
