In Laravel, we can use variables in relationships by passing them as parameters to the relationship method.
For example, let's say we have a User model and a Post model. The User model has many posts, but we want to retrieve only the posts created by a specific user. We can pass the user_id variable to the posts relationship like this:
class User extends Model
{
public function posts()
{
return $this->hasMany(Post::class)->where('user_id', $this->id);
}
}
In this example, we're using the where method to filter the posts by the userid of the current user. We're also using the $this->id variable to retrieve the userid value from the User model.
To use this relationship in our code, we can simply call the posts() method on a User instance:
$user = User::find(1);
$posts = $user->posts;
This will return a collection containing only the posts created by the user with the ID of 1.
