Laravel how to add a custom function in an Eloquent model?

Question

I have a Product model

class Product extends Model
{
    ...

    public function prices()
    {
        return $this->hasMany(\'App\\Price\');
    }

you can use above methods or use following method to add a function direct into existing model:

class Company extends Model
{
    protected $table = 'companies';

    // get detail by id
    static function detail($id)
    {
        return self::find($id)->toArray();
    }

    // get list by condition
    static function list($name = '')
    {
        if ( !empty($name) ) return self::where('name', 'LIKE', $name)->get()->toArray();
        else return self::all()->toArray();
    }
}

Or use Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB; inside your function. Hope this help others.
