Obtaining unique attributes from Laravel's many-to-many relationships

Currently, I am in the process of developing a module for my laravel web application that allows users to create multiple projects. These projects can have multiple contributors who need to be approved by the owners. The functionality for owner users has been successfully implemented using the following code in the Project model:

public function owner()
{
    return $this->belongsTo('younite\User', 'owner_id');
}

However, I am facing challenges with mapping user contributors to different projects and managing their acceptance status. I considered using MANYTOMANY pivot tables as suggested in the Laravel documentation here, but I am struggling to understand how to create and access a custom 'status' column in the project_user table.

Any assistance on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Answer №1

Oops, my mistake! I managed to solve the issue by adding an additional 'status' column in the migration file for the pivot_table. In the project model file, I incorporated this code to retrieve the status of a user:

public function getUsers() {
    return $this->belongsToMany('ourproject\User')->withPivot('status')->withTimestamps();
}
