Relationships

​
Watchlists

Polymorphic one-to-many relationship with the Watchlist model. 
public function watchlists(): MorphMany
Returns all watchlist entries for this VOD stream. Usage: 
$vod = VodStream::find(123);
$watchlists = $vod->watchlists;
The VodStream model uses Laravel Scout for full-text search. Only the name field is indexed. Example: 
$results = VodStream::search('Inception')->get();

​
Data Transfer Object

The model integrates with VodStreamData DTO class: 
protected $dataClass = VodStreamData::class;

​
Adult Content Filtering

Use the is_adult flag to filter mature content: 
// Get non-adult content only
$familyFriendly = VodStream::where('is_adult', false)->get();

// Get adult content
$matureContent = VodStream::where('is_adult', true)->get();
