i have laravel models
Category: id,name
public function posts(){
return $this->hasMany(PostCategory::class,'category_id','id');
}
PostCategory : post_id, category_id
public function post(){
return $this->belongsTo(Post::class,'post_id');
}
POST: id, ..so on
public function solutions(){
return $this->hasMany(PostSolution::class,'post_id','id');
}
I need to get count of all posts fall under a category and also solutions under one category.. there is no direct relation of category and solution so how to get count of solutions in one category.
$categories = Category::withCount('posts')->get();

I think use hasManyThrough relation
// Category Class
public function solutions()
{
return $this->hasManyThrough(PostSolution::class, Post::class);
}
// Then get the data in the same old manner
$categories = Category::->withCount('posts')->get();
I hope this will help
