Eloquent Polymorphic Many to Many Relationship CRUD

Create 4 models, Post, Video, Tag, and Taggable

php artisan make:model Post -m   
php artisan make:model Video -m
php artisan make:model Tag -m
php artisan make:model Taggable -m

In our migrations

create_posts_table, create_videos_table and create_tags_table.php:

            $table->string('name');

create_taggables_table:

            $table->integer('tag_id');
            $table->integer('taggable_id');
            $table->string('taggable_type');

Now you can migrate it:

php artisan migrate

Update Models

Tag:

    protected $fillable = [
        'name',
    ];

Taggable:

    protected $fillable = [
        'name',

    ];
    public function taggable(){
        return $this->morphTo();
    }

Post and Video:

    protected $fillable = [
        'name',
    ];
    public function tags(){
        $this->morphToMany('App\Models\Tag', 'taggable');
    }

Create a few staff members and products in the database.

Different CRUD statements to add to routes:

Route::get('/create', function () {
    $post = Post::create(['name'=>'My first post']);
    $tag1 = Tag::find(1);
    $post->tags()->save($tag1);
    $video = Video::create(['name'=>'video.mov']);
    $tag2 = Tag::find(2);
    $video->tags()->save($tag2);
});

Route::get('/read', function () {
    $post = Post::findOrFail(4);
    foreach($post->tags as $tag){
        echo $tag;
    }
});

Route::get('/update', function () {
    $post = Post::findOrFail(4);
    foreach($post->tags as $tag){
        return $tag->whereName('php')->update(['name'=>'updated php']);
    }
});

Route::get('/update2', function () {
    $post = Post::findOrFail(4);
    $tag = Tag::find(4);
    $post->tags()->save($tag);
});

Route::get('/attach', function () {
    $post = Post::findOrFail(4);
    $tag = Tag::find(2);
    $post->tags()->attach($tag);
});

Route::get('/sync', function () {
    $post = Post::findOrFail(4);
    $tag = Tag::find(2);
    $post->tags()->sync([1,2]);
});

Route::get('/delete', function () {
    $post = Post::findOrFail(4);
    foreach($post->tags as $tag){
        $tag->whereId(2)->delete();
    }
});
