Is there a way to merge 2 relationships in laravel?

this is the way it\'s setup now, but Is there a way I could return both merged?

Answer 1

I've created a package for merging relationships using views:
https://github.com/staudenmeir/laravel-merged-relations

First, create the merge view in a migration:

use Staudenmeir\LaravelMergedRelations\Facades\Schema;

Schema::createMergeView(
    'competitions',
    [(new YourModel)->CompetitionsHome(), (new YourModel)->CompetitionsGuest()]
);

Then define the relationship:

class YourModel extends Model
{
    use \Staudenmeir\LaravelMergedRelations\Eloquent\HasMergedRelationships;

    public function competitions()
    {
        return $this->mergedRelationWithModel(Competition::class, 'competitions');
    }
}

Use it like any other relationship:

$model->competitions;

$model->competitions()->paginate();

YourModel::with('competitions')->get();
