In Laravel, you can somehow delete the model, but with the removal of all linking records?

Question

Laravel

For example, I want to delete a user $user->delete(), but in several other places there is a user_id key. So that it deletes the entries with these keys. And those, in turn, can pull something else. To remove all of this. Tried
->forceDelete(), doesn't help.

Answer 1

If foreign keys are installed, then it will drop everything by itself. If not set, then first delete the related entities, then the user itself.

Answer 2

in migrations, you need to add a cascade delete to the keys https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/migrations#foreign-ke...
or delete the deleted event in the model observer
