The Query

By default, the package will join any relationship tables it can, it will also eager-load any relationships if you chain the eagerLoadRelations() method on the column or call the setEagerLoadAllRelationsEnabled() method on the component configuration.

This package only currently supports Eloquent models. You have two ways of hooking up your model.

Note: You can try calebporzio/sushi for arrays.

#Using the model property

If you would like to create a simple table and know that you won't need to join any extra tables or use any aliases, then you can just use the model property:

1protected $model = User::class;

This just calls the query method on the model for you.

#Using the builder method

If you want more control over the query you may implement the builder method:

1public function builder(): Builder
2{
3    return User::query()
4        ->with() // Eager load anything
5        ->join() // Join some tables
6        ->select(); // Select some things
7}

Your component must implement one of these methods or an exception will be thrown.
