Scope visibility of included relationship in show contoller

bradraj

I'm have ScopeMyModelVisibility that allow to view some of MyModel objects for only specific groups there user belongs to. It's working well. But when in my ShowAnotherModelController I'm include an relationship for MyModel users that doesn't have access to view some of MyModel's can see it. Is it should work like this? I'm mean ScopeMyModelVisibility is not event called for included relationships in ShowController. And it's bypass my scope visibilities.

You can eager load the relation with a closure to apply the visibility scope.

For example:

$models->load(['customRelation' => function ($query) use ($actor) {
    $query->whereVisibleTo($actor);
}]);

SychO thanks, that working. But why this is not applied for default?

bradraj the logic in 1.x isn't smart enough to do that automatically.

The logic in the upcoming 2.x is.
