To compare 2 pivot tables in Laravel, you can first retrieve the pivot tables as collections and then compare them using Laravel's Collection methods. Here is an example of how you can compare two pivot tables in Laravel:

  1. Retrieve the pivot tables as collections:
1
2
$firstPivotTable = User::find(1)->roles()->get();
$secondPivotTable = User::find(2)->roles()->get();


  1. Compare the two collections using Laravel's Collection methods:
1
2
3
4
5
if ($firstPivotTable->diff($secondPivotTable)->isEmpty()) {
    echo "The two pivot tables are the same";
} else {
    echo "The two pivot tables are different";
}


In the above example, we first retrieve the pivot tables for two different users as collections. We then use the diff() method provided by Laravel's Collection class to compare the two collections. If the diff() method returns an empty collection, it means that the two collections are the same, otherwise, they are different.


You can adapt this example to your specific requirements and customize it as needed for comparing your pivot tables in Laravel.
