How to pass an array to ::with() - Lumen/Laravel

Question

So $permittedTables is an array of tablenames which I want to join to coretable . To do this, I want to use Model::with(), like so:

$join = coretable::with($permittedTables)->get();

However, I get this error when executing the above code:

Argument 1 passed to Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Builder::parseWithRelations() must be of the type array, object given, called in E:\aether-backend\vendor\illuminate\database\Eloquent\Builder.php on line 1043

Whats confusing me the most is the fact this actual IS an array, so I dont really understand why it actually throws THIS error xD

Still, can anyone tell me if this approach is actually possible? And if so, how can I do it?

EDIT: This is how the array was generated:

$permittedTables = extensiontables_registry::findmany($ids)->pluck('extensiontable_name');

Just in case this has anything to do with it.

Answer 1

The pluck function return Collection/Enumerable, you have to call toArray function to get array of table names

$permittedTables = extensiontables_registry::findmany($ids)
                             ->pluck('extensiontable_name')
                             ->toArray();

Answer 2

$permittedTables = extensiontables_registry::findmany($ids)->pluck('extensiontable_name'); In above code fragment ->pluck() method returns Object, that's why it throws following error must be of the type array, object given

Try using this: $permittedTables = extensiontables_registry::findmany($ids)->pluck('extensiontable_name')->toArray() It should work.
