Hello everyone,
I've read carefully information about virtual fields on this forum. What do I need:
I have some translations for model in separated table. I would like to attach them as a virtual field via trait to the model.
Example: Table & Model: category ($id, $systemName) Table: category_translation ($parentId related to category.id, $locale, $name)
So category hasMany category_translation records (1 row per 1 locale). So after some manipulations, I have an array
$locales = [ 'en' => 'value', 'tr' => 'other_value', 'es' => 'es value', ... ];
Now I would like to attach this array to category model on fetch.
public function afterFetch() { $this->locales = $this->methodThatReturnsAnArray(); }
But it doesn't work, because locales column is not exists in table. Option is to create an empty unused field in table, but this is definitely not a right way.
What is a best option to add a virtual unexisting in table column to model mapping?
