Searching an accessor of eager-loaded relation from datatables












0















I've got the following models:



<?php
class User extends Model {
public function department() {
return $this->hasOne(Department::class);
}
}

class Department extends Model {
protected $appends = ["email"];
public function getEmailAttribute() {
return "$this->name@$this->domain";
}
public function user() {
return $this->belongsTo(User::class);
}
}


I'm pulling a list of users, including their departments, and showing this (using the Laravel DataTables package) in a datatable with server-side pagination/sorting/searching:



<?php
class UserController extends Controller {
public function dt() {
$users = User::with("department")
->where("location_id", session("current_location"));
return DataTables::of($users)->make();
}
}


Within the datatables setup, one of my columns is defined as follows:



{data: "department.email"}


This displays the email accessor property without issue. The problem comes when I try to search, or sort based on this column:




DataTables warning: table id=DataTables_Table_0 - Exception Message:



SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column 'departments.email' in 'where clause'




Obviously, datatables isn't aware that this is an accessor, and tries to include it in the query – with predictable results.



The only workaround I could find reference to is using the filterColumn method, which allows you to define a custom WHERE clause for a specific column. But as far as I can tell this a) requires you to define the column manually with a query builder, and b) only works on the model directly, not one of its relations.



Is there any way that I can search and sort this accessor property the same way I can with the "real" properties of the relation?

            Try appending the accesor to the model.



            class Department extends Model {

            protected $appends = ['email'];

            // the rest of your code
            }


            Note: Attributes in the appends array will also respect the visible and hidden settings configured on the model.
