一个用户可能有多个文章，一个文章是某个用户书写的，这就是关系。同样文章中可能包含多个 TAG，而一个 TAG 可能关联多个文章。
在项目中，我们已经有了 User.php，也就是用户模型，查看一下，相当简单。我们希望直接使用 $user->articles() 的形式获取全部文章，让我们修改 user 模型：
public function articles() {
return $this->hasMany('AppArticle');
}
但是我们仅仅完成了关系中的一端，让我们来处理另一端。我们希望的形式是 $article->user() ，让我们修改 article 模型。
public function user() {
return $this->belongsTo('AppUser');
}
在我们的数据库中，文章模型没有用户的外键，我们需要设置，修改 create_article_table.php
Schema::create('articles', function(Blueprint $table)
{
$table->increments('id');
//指定外键列
$table->integer('user_id')->unsigned();
$table->string('title');
$table->text('body');
$table->timestamp('published_at');
$table->timestamps();
//生成外键
$table->foreign('user_id')
->references('id')
->on('users')
->onDelete('cascade');
});
因为我们只是在开发阶段，还没有上线运行，我们可以直接修改数据库迁移文件，回滚然后迁移即可，但是如果上线运行的话，应该新建一个迁移。
php artisan migrate:refresh

现在让我们使用 tinker 来创建一个用户。
php artisan tinker

#下面是执行过程
>>> $user = new AppUser;
=> <AppUser #000000007f1ad61a000000006497cc4f> {}
>>> $user->name = 'zhang jinglin';
=> "zhang jinglin"
>>> $user->email = 'zjl@example.com';
=> "zjl@example.com"
>>> $user->password = bcrypt('pass');
=> "$2y$10$Nbl2b9wqd.rXqKEsd3pRSOoIyFAFIhbqf71BufwDfS3Guv21SlEx2"
>>> $user->save();
=> true
>>> AppUser::first()->toArray();
=> [
"id" => "1",
"name" => "zhang jinglin",
"email" => "zjl@example.com",
"created_at" => "2015-03-31 03:24:55",
"updated_at" => "2015-03-31 03:24:55"
]
>>>
现在我们需要新发布的文章和用户关联，我们暂时先修改 form_partial.blade.php 来隐藏一个用户id，只是暂时：
{{--临时处理--}}
{!! Form::hidden('user_id', 1) !!}
同时要修改模型的 $fillabel 属性，以便我们的 Mass Assisment。
protected $fillable = [
'title',
'body',
'published_at',
'user_id' //临时设置
];
OK，添加一个文章。我们使用 tinker 来查看一下。
