When loading a relationship does not appear when result as json

[renanchavess]

When trying to load images of a product, they are not included when returning

Model:

class Product extends Model
{
    public function images()
    {
        return $this->hasMany(ProductImage::class);
    }
}

Controller:

class HomeController extends Controller
{
    public function getProducts()
    {
        $products = Product::with('images')->find(1);    
        return response()->json( $products, 200);
    }
}

Result:

{
  "id": 1,
  "name": "Adidas Sneakers",
  "price": 549.99,
  "stock": 0,
  "active": 0,
  "created_at": "17-06-20",
  "updated_at": "20-06-20"
}

If I make a $products-> images in return it works and looks like this:

[
  {
    "id": 5,
    "path": "products/1/SR84EetnuQW7WDetQBAurHypJPwrOiddyXWFDkAh.jpeg",
    "product_id": 1
  },
  {
    "id": 12,
    "path": "products/1/7cIkR4i0F3zY6fsKibqvKQIxtSEusCZmrmxx75nk.jpeg",
    "product_id": 1
  }
]

I believe that the relationship is working correctly, but I cannot understand the reason for not going result.

You can use php artisan make:resource for your Product model. Read the docs for more info about that.

I can't reproduce it.

User::resolveRelationUsing('user', function ($userModel) {
        return $userModel->hasMany(User::class,'id','id');
    });

    $userObject = User::with('user')
    ->find(1);
    return response()->json( $userObject, 200);

and it returns
