retrieve name from the other table - database

Question

Is there an efficient way of retrieving the name by using select and join clause? I have a Note, NoteType and NoteStatus model. There are type and status field which will be stored as integer (representing the id of its respective model) inside Note model. NoteType and NoteStatus models have id and name fields.
foreach($notes as $note)
{
$type=NoteType::where('id',$note->type)->first();
$note->type=$type->name;
$status=NoteStatus::where('id',$note->status)->first();
$note->status=$status->name;
}

Answer 1

Model Relations
Setting up relations between your models would be the best way as you then don't need to re-invent the wheel each time you need to call the join. It will save you code in the long run.
More info on this here:
Laravel Eloquent Relationships
Query Builder
If you want to do this manually then it would be the same as if you ran the query in raw SQL:
$note = Note::join('NoteType','Note.NoteType_id','NoteType.id')
->select('Note.*','NoteType.Name as NoteName')
->first();
Now you can get all the info from $note
Note id = $note->id
NoteType Name = $note->NoteName
Obviously adjust this to your code but this should help you build your knowledge enough to work it out.

Answer 2

Assume that Your model name is Note.php
assume in your notes table has note_status_id and note_type_id foreign key
Add Relationship in your main model Note.php
public function status()
{
return $this->belongsTo(NoteStatus::class);
}
public function notes()
{
return $this->belongsTo(NoteType::class);
}
You can retrieve data with relationship something like that
Note::with('status','notes')
->get()
