Eloquent Instance
=================

[](#eloquent-instance)

[![Actions Status](https://github.com/railken/eloquent-instance/workflows/Test/badge.svg)](https://github.com/railken/eloquent-instance/actions)

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

You can install it via [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) by typing the following command:

```
composer require railken/eloquent-instance
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Simple include `Railken\EloquentInstance\HasRelationships` in your model and start using

```
namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Railken\EloquentInstance\HasRelationships;

class Author extends Model
{
    use HasRelationships;

    public function books()
    {
        $book = new Book();
        $book->setTable('book_custom');

        return $this->hasMany($book);
