Eloquent order relationship results

Question

I have a simple eloquent query and want to include another table with my results, however, the order of relationship results is incorrect.

Is it possible to order the results without using an SQLRAW statement

$groups = AttributeGroup::with('attribute')->where('page_id', $page->id)->get();

What I would like -

$groups = AttributeGroup::with('attribute')->orderBy('iteration', 'DESC')->where('page_id', $page->id)->get();

I get the error of Unknown column because this column is part of relationship table.

Answer 1

This will order each attribute relation of every attribute group result:

$groups = AttributeGroup::with(['attribute' => function ($query) {
    $query->orderBy('iteration', 'DESC');
}])->where('page_id', $page->id)->get();

Is this what you want to achieve?

Answer 2

You can use closures to change the query when using with and has .

$groups = AttributeGroup::with(['attribute' => function($query){
    $query->orderBy('iteration');
})->where('page_id', $page->id)->get();
