Laravel 4数据透视表（很多）-我什么时候使用-> get（）和:: with（）

Question

I not getting any results from my many to many relationship when using ->get(). I am testing my relationship with the following:

The first part works. I am getting all the nests that have test@email.com in the pivot table. However I am bringing results back from a specific user ID. I do not want to do that.

Route::get('/test', function () {
  foreach(User::find(2)->nest()->where('inviteEmail', '=', 'test@email.com')->get() as $nest)
    echo $nest->name, ': ', $nest->pivot->inviteEmail, "</br>";
});

I want to get all the nests which are associated to the email. I thought this would work:

foreach(User::with('nest')->where('inviteEmail', '=', 'test@email.com')->get() as $nest)
  echo $nest->name, ': ', $nest->pivot->inviteEmail, "</br>";
});

But I am getting this:

SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column 'inviteEmail' in 'where clause' (SQL: select * from users where inviteEmail = ?) (Bindings: array ( 0 => 'test@email.com', ))

If I drop the ->get() then I get a blank screen. Any ideas?

To get all nests with email = test@email.com , make use of Eager Loading Constraints. Assuming you do have a Nest class, that's how you should do it:

$nests = Nest::with(array('user' => function ($query) {
    $query->where('nests_users.email', '=', 'test@email.com');
}));

You can read more on this on the official documentation .
