  • Custom Eloquent casts and attribute casting
  • Database observers for complex event handling
  • Pessimistic and optimistic locking
  • Database replication (read/write splitting)
  • Query result caching strategies
  • Subqueries and complex joins
  • Window functions and aggregate queries
  • Database transactions with savepoints
  • Multi-tenancy database architectures
  • Database partitioning strategies

Example Patterns

Polymorphic Relationships

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Relations\MorphMany;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Relations\MorphOne;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Relations\MorphTo;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Relations\MorphToMany;

class Comment extends Model
{
    protected $fillable = ['content', 'author_id', 'commentable_type', 'commentable_id'];

    // Comment can belong to Post, Video, or any other model
    public function commentable(): MorphTo
    {
        return $this->morphTo();
    }

    // Comments can have reactions
    public function reactions(): MorphMany
    {
        return $this->morphMany(Reaction::class, 'reactable');
    }

    // Comments can be tagged
    public function tags(): MorphToMany
    {
        return $this->morphToMany(
            Tag::class,
            'taggable',
            'taggables'
        )->withTimestamps();
    }
}

class Post extends Model
{
    public function comments(): MorphMany
    {
        return $this->morphMany(Comment::class, 'commentable');
    }

    public function latestComment(): MorphOne
    {
        return $this->morphOne(Comment::class, 'commentable')
            ->latestOfMany();
    }

    public function reactions(): MorphMany
    {
        return $this->morphMany(Reaction::class, 'reactable');
    }

    public function tags(): MorphToMany
    {
        return $this->morphToMany(
            Tag::class,
            'taggable',
            'taggables'
        )->withTimestamps();
    }
}

Custom Pivot Model

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Relations\BelongsTo;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Relations\Pivot;

class ProjectUser extends Pivot
{
    protected $table = 'project_user';

    protected $fillable = [
        'project_id',
        'user_id',
        'role',
        'permissions',
        'invited_by',
        'joined_at',
    ];

    protected $casts = [
        'permissions' => 'array',
        'joined_at' => 'datetime',
    ];

    public function project(): BelongsTo
    {
        return $this->belongsTo(Project::class);
    }

    public function user(): BelongsTo
    {
        return $this->belongsTo(User::class);
    }

    public function inviter(): BelongsTo
    {
        return $this->belongsTo(User::class, 'invited_by');
    }

    public function hasPermission(string $permission): bool
    {
        return in_array($permission, $this->permissions ?? [], true);
    }
}

// Usage in model
class Project extends Model
{
    public function users(): BelongsToMany
    {
        return $this->belongsToMany(User::class)
            ->using(ProjectUser::class)
            ->withPivot(['role', 'permissions', 'invited_by', 'joined_at'])
            ->as('membership');
    }
}

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\Casts;

use App\ValueObjects\Money;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Database\Eloquent\CastsAttributes;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class MoneyCast implements CastsAttributes

        }

        $currency = $attributes["{$key}_currency"] ?? 'USD';

            amount: (int) $value,
            currency: $currency
        );
    }

    public function set(Model $model, string $key, mixed $value, array $attributes): array
    {

                "{$key}_currency" => null,
            ];
        }

        if (!$value instanceof Money) {
            throw new \InvalidArgumentException('Value must be an instance of Money');
        }

        return [
            $key => $value->amount,
            "{$key}_currency" => $value->currency,
        ];
    }
}

// Money Value Object
namespace App\ValueObjects;

{
    public function __construct(
        public int $amount,
        public string $currency,
    ) {}

    public function formatted(): string
    {
        $amount = $this->amount / 100;
        return match ($this->currency) {
            'USD' => '$' . number_format($amount, 2),
            'EUR' => '€' . number_format($amount, 2),
            'GBP' => '£' . number_format($amount, 2),
            default => $this->currency . ' ' . number_format($amount, 2),
        };
    }
}

// Usage in model
class Product extends Model
{
    protected $casts = [
        'price' => MoneyCast::class,
    ];
}

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\Repositories;

class ProductRepository
{
    public function findByMetadata(array $filters): Collection
    {

            // Query nested JSON
            ->where('metadata->color', $filters['color'] ?? null)
            ->where('metadata->size', $filters['size'] ?? null)

            // Query JSON arrays
            ->whereJsonContains('metadata->features', 'waterproof')

            // Query JSON length
            ->whereJsonLength('metadata->features', '>', 2)

            // Order by JSON value
            ->orderBy('metadata->priority', 'desc')

Eloquent Macro for Reusable Query Logic

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\Providers;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Builder;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;

class EloquentMacroServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    public function boot(): void
    {
        // Add whereLike macro
        Builder::macro('whereLike', function (string $column, string $value) {
            return $this->where($column, 'like', "%{$value}%");
        });

        // Add orWhereLike macro
        Builder::macro('orWhereLike', function (string $column, string $value) {
            return $this->orWhere($column, 'like', "%{$value}%");
        });

        // Add whereDate range macro
        Builder::macro('whereDateBetween', function (string $column, $startDate, $endDate) {
            return $this->whereBetween($column, [$startDate, $endDate]);
        });

        // Add scope for active records
        Builder::macro('active', function () {
            return $this->where('is_active', true)
                ->whereNull('deleted_at');
        });

        // Add search macro
        Builder::macro('search', function (array $columns, string $search) {
            return $this->where(function ($query) use ($columns, $search) {
                foreach ($columns as $column) {
                    $query->orWhere($column, 'like', "%{$search}%");
                }
            });
        });

// Usage
Post::whereLike('title', 'Laravel')->get();
Post::search(['title', 'content'], 'search term')->get();
