I have been struggling with this issue for the past 5 hours and It is driving me nuts.
First here is my code.
There is a product contrloller
<?php namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use App\Http\Requests;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Validator;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Redirect;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Session;
use Cviebrock\EloquentSluggable\SluggableInterface;
use Cviebrock\EloquentSluggable\SluggableTrait;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Product;
class ProductController extends Controller {
protected $product;
public function __construct(Product $product)
{
$this->product = $product;
$this->middleware('auth', ['except' => ['index','show']]);
}
a few methods and then the edit method
public function edit($id)
{
//$products = $this->product->findBySlug($slug);
$products = $this->product->with('images' )->find($id);
dd($products);
}
The Product model:
<?php namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Cviebrock\EloquentSluggable\SluggableInterface;
use Cviebrock\EloquentSluggable\SluggableTrait;
class Product extends Model implements SluggableInterface {
use SluggableTrait;
protected $guarded = array();
protected $sluggable = array(
'build_from' => 'title',
'save_to' => 'slug',
);
public static $rules = array(
'type' => 'required',
'price' => 'required',
'title' => 'required'
);
protected $fillable = [
'shorturl',
'url',
'type',
'title',
'slug',
'overview',
'price',
'availability'
];
/**
* through product_tags pivot table
* @return [type] [description]
*/
public function tags()
{
return $this->hasMany('App\Tag');
}
public function images()
{
return $this->hasMany('App\Image');
}
}
and the Image model:
<?php namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class Product extends Model {
protected $guarded = array();
public static $rules = array(
'title' => 'required',
'url' => 'required',
'product_id' => 'required'
);
protected $fillable = [
'title',
'url',
'size'
];
public function product()
{
return $this->belongsTo('App\Product');
}
}
My problem is that when I run
$products = $this->product->find($id);
I get the record I am looking for. If however I use
$products = $this->product->with('images' )->find($id);
I then get the following error.
BadMethodCallException in Builder.php line 1990:
Call to undefined method Illuminate\Database\Query\Builder::images()
and the first few lines are:
in Builder.php line 1990

I can post the rest if you would like but I think my error is something quite fundamental that I am missing.

The Image model you posted has a class name Product.
If it's your actual code then:
public function images()
{
return $this->hasMany('App\Image');
}
the App\Image class used in this relationship does not exist.
