I have a different problem from this. The scenario is same but I am in need of more filtration of the results.
Let me explain.
Consider I have 2 tables
vehicles
JavaScript
x
id
name
staff_id
distance
mileage
staffs
JavaScript
id
name
designation
I want to select only id
and name
from both tables(Models).
The Vehicle Model contain a belongsTo
relation to Staff model.
JavaScript
class Vehicle extends Model
{
public function staff()
{
return $this->belongsTo('AppStaff','staff_id');
}
}
and I joined using this
JavaScript
Vehicle::where('id',1)
->with(['staff'=> function($query){
// selecting fields from staff table
$query->select(['staff.id','staff.name']);
}])
->get();
When I put fields in ->get()
like this
JavaScript
->get(['id','name'])
it filters the vehicle
table but produce no result of Staff table.
Any ideas?

Finally found it..
In the ->get()
you have to put the ‘staff_id’ like this
JavaScript
Vehicle::where('id',1)
->with(['staff'=> function($query){
// selecting fields from staff table
$query->select(['staff.id','staff.name']);
}])
->get(['id','name','staff_id']);
Since I didn’t take the staff_id
, it couldn’t perform the join and hence staff table fields were not shown.
