Issue in dynamic model loading in Laravel 5.6

I am trying to load models dynamically in my controller based on route type. But when I run program I get a message saying "class not found". Here is my code and a link of stackoverflow which I used to fix my issue.

Code:

    $model = $this->getModelName($request->matchType);
    $class = "App\Models\$model";
    if($model && class_exists($class))
    {
        $data = $class::where('type_id',$type)->firstOrFail();
    }
    else
    {
        $data = MyModel::find($type);
    }

    return $this->showOne($data);

Link:

Load in models dynamically in Laravel 5.1

This is a good link but not working for me and why simple $model::all() not working.

You need to use double backslashes:

$class = "App\\Models\\$model";

Try using the app helper to resolve the model:

$data = app($class)->where('type_id',$type)->firstOrFail();

Add another slash to your class name: 

 $class = "\App\Models\$model";

instead of :

 $class = "App\Models\$model";
