Quick Tip

Load Relationships Always, but Dynamically

You can not only specify what relationships to ALWAYS load with the model, but you can do it dynamically, in the constructor method:

class ProductTag extends Model
{
protected $with = ['product'];
 
public function __construct() {
parent::__construct();
$this->with = ['product'];
 
if (auth()->check()) {
$this->with[] = 'user';
}
}
}
