Laravel嵌套关系返回null

Question

I have next db structure:

And I have next code in my Eloquent models:

Sample.php

public function polfzms()
{
    return $this->belongsToMany('App\Polfzm');
}

Polfzm.php

public function samples()
{
    return $this->belongsToMany('App\Sample');
}

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

Gene.php

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

I try to get sample data with his labels, polfzms and gene using dot in where clause - polfzms.gene

public function show($id)
{
    return Sample::with('labels', 'polfzms.gene')->findOrFail($id);
}

But I have got a "gene":null

{
   "id":18,
   "person_id":1,
   "prefix_id":3,
   "labels":[
      {
         "id":1,
         "name":"Name1",
         "meaning":"dfdf",
         "pivot":{
            "sample_id":18,
            "label_id":1
         }
      },
   ],
   "polfzms":[
      {
         "id":1,
         "name":"G20210",
         "id_gene":1,
         "pivot":{
            "sample_id":18,
            "polfzm_id":1
         },
         "gene":null
      }
   ]
}

I use latest laravel version. How can I fix it?

Answer 1

You're getting null for your Gene relation, because you have not explicitly defined a foreign key, nor followed the Eloquent naming convention.

Eloquent expects the foreign key to be gene_id , whereas your schema has the foreign key id_gene .

To fix this, either change your schema to define the foreign key as gene_id , or update your relationship as follows:

public function gene()
{
    return $this->belongsTo('App\Gene', 'id_gene');
}
