I have following table layouts:

functions:
- id
- name
- category_id

categories:
- id
- name

versions:
- id
- name

function_version
- function_id
- version_id

I would like to call the following relationships

From version model $version->categories

From category model $category->versions

Thanks for your help!

As laravel explain Laravel Relationships in their docs, for many to many you can use this code

public function 'function name'()
    {
        return $this->belongsToMany(App Model Name::class);
    }

try below code:

1. From version model:

   $version = Version::with('functions' => function($query) {
       $query->withCount('category');
   })->firstOrFail();
   return $version->functions->category_count;
   

2. From category model:

   $category = Category::with('functions' => functions($query) {
       $query->withCount('versions');
   })->firstOrFail();
   return $category->functions->versions_count;
   

for above code you have below relationship in particular model:

class Category extends Model
{
    public function functions()
    {
        return $this->hasMany(Function::class);
    }
}

class Function extends Model
{
    public function Category()
    {
        return $this->belongsTo(Category::class);
    }

    public function versions()
    {
        return $this->belongsToMany(Version::class);
    }
}

class Version extends Model
{
    public function functions()
    {
        return $this->belongsToMany(Function::class);
    }
}
