Conditional relationships

If you notice that you use same relationship often with additional "where" or "orderBy" condition, you can create a separate relationship method.

Model:

// Model:
public function comments()
{
    return $this->hasMany(Comment::class);
}
 
public function approvedComments()
{
    return $this->comments()
        ->where('approved', 1);
}
 
public function latestApprovedComments()
{
    return $this->comments()
        ->where('approved', 1)
        ->orderBy('created_at', 'desc');
}
