Laravel 5.4：计算每个类别中的产品并按Eloquent查询对它们进行排序

Question

I have two Models one is Product and the other is ProductCategory

and I have relations between both

Product Model

public function productCategory() {
        return $this->belongsTo( ProductCategory::class, 'product_category_id' );
    }

Product Category Model

public function categoryProduct() {
        return $this->hasMany( Product::class, 'product_category_id' );
    }

now each category has some product like (cat-1 has 3 products, cat-2 has 7 products, cat-3 has 5 products).

I need an Eloquent query which will get 4 categories sorted by the count of products in each category.

For Ex.

cat-2 has 7 products
cat-3 has 5 products
cat-1 has 3 products

Answer 1

Use withCount() and then orderBy() to make it with single query.

ProductCategory::with('categoryProduct')->withCount('categoryProduct')->orderBy('category_product_count','desc')->get();

To get just the count

ProductCategory::withCount('categoryProduct')->orderBy('category_product_count','desc')->get();
