Conflict on Same Model

[emredoganm]

As mentioned in documentation here, I've created a User model and followersrelationship like this:

  public function followers()
  {
    return $this->belongsToMany(User::class, "FOLLOWS");
  }

But when I debug this query:

dd(User::has("followers")->get());

and echoing out $query from run() function in Vinelab\Eloquent\Connection the result is:

MATCH (user:`User`), (user)<-[rel_follows_user:FOLLOWS]-(user:`User`) WITH user, count(user) AS user_count WHERE user_count >= 1 RETURN user

Target node is named as user and source node is named as user and it conflicts in Cypher and returns an empty collection. I think it is a bug. How can we solve this?

[emredoganm]

I have created a PR for this problem: #229.

This PR will generate a cypher query like this with situtation above:

dd(User::has("followers")->get());

Cypher query:

MATCH (user:`User`), (user)<-[rel_follows_user:FOLLOWS]-(related_user:`User`) WITH user, count(related_user) AS user_count WHERE user_count >= 1 RETURN user

Please confirm the fix of this in your PR to close.

@Mulkave is there some reason his suggested fix was not implemented? It is kind of embarrassing for your example code to not work.

@k98kurz this would require further testing and spectating to figure out whether it has any side effects on mapping or hydrating models, since it relies on these variables to figure out the properties.

Not sure if @emredoganm is still up for the fix?
