I need to seed a relationship in Laravel, where each user has many devices
The User model
public function devices()
{
return $this->hasMany(Device::class);
}
The Device model
public function users()
{
return $this->belongsTo(User::class);
}
}
The device_user table
Schema::create('device_user', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->integer('device_id')->unsigned()->index();
$table->foreign('device_id')->references('id')->on('devices')->onDelete('cascade');
$table->integer('user_id')->unsigned()->index();
$table->foreign('user_id')->references('id')->on('users')->onDelete('cascade');
$table->timestamps();
});
The seeder
factory(App\Device::class, 20)->create()->each(function(App\Device $device) {
$device->users()->attach([
rand(1,5),
rand(6,15),
rand(16,20),
]);
});
But, when I run the migration with seeder, I get this message
Call to undefined method Illuminate\Database\Query\Builder::attach()
Please, help

attach for many to many relationships, you don't need device_user table for one to many relationship, in one to many you should create a column with name user_id in device table and just it. after that you can insert data in device table with user_id. and get user relationship with
Device::user()->get();
