HasMany-Relation with a static field (model_type)

[Cluster2a]

Hey there!

I’ve set up a Model and a GlobalFields table. The GlobalFields table includes a model_type field, which contains the morph class name—but without the actual model id, since these fields are intended to be shared across different model types.

What I’d like to do is load all related GlobalFields records by calling $model->globalFields, with support for eager loading as well.

Is there a way to achieve this using a relation, maybe with a workaround?

I’ve tried something along these lines, but it didn’t work:

/**
 * @return HasMany<GlobalField>
 */
public function globalFields(): HasMany
{
    $hasMany = new HasMany(GlobalField::query(), $this, null, null);

    return $hasMany->where('model_type', $this->getMorphClass());
}

Best - Alex
