将数据从表复制到另一个表并应用一对多关系

Question

This is my Report Model

protected $fillable = [
    'site_url',
    'reciepients',
    'monthly_email_date'
];

public function site()
{
    return $this->belongsTo('App\Site');
}

This is my Site Model

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

This is my ReportController

public function showSpecificSite($site_name)
{

$records = DB::table('reports')
          ->select('email_date','url','recipient') 
          ->whereHas('sites', function($query){
                    $query->where('site_name',$site_name);
           })
          ->get();

  return view('newsite')->with('records',$records)
  ->with('site_name',$site_name);
}

My Controller is not yet working as well. The thing is I would like to copy all the three files from sites table to reports table.

Is it possible in insertInto ?

My code on ReportController shows you that I'm selecting data from reports table but I am the one who puts data to reports table to see the output but it is not yet working because of the it cant reach out the value of site_name even though I already put a relationship between the two tables.

Answer 1

You're not actually using Eloquent in your controller you're just using the Query Builder (DB). This will mean that you don't have access to anything from your Eloquent models.

Try:

$records = \App\Report::whereHas('site', function($query) use($site_name) {
        $query->where('site_name', $site_name);
    })->get(['id', 'email_date', 'url', 'recipient']);

I've added id to the list of columns as I'm pretty sure you'll need that to use whereHas.

NB to use a variable from the parent scope inside a closure you need to pass it in using use().
