You can't define rels using constants in FK definitions like
'foreign.admin' => 1. You have to define just the 'all_users' rel with
{ 'foreign.company_id' => 'self.company_id' } and create result class
methods for 'users' and 'admins' like:
sub users_rs {
my $self = shift;
return $self->all_users_rs({ admin => '0' });
}
sub users {
my $self = shift;
my $rs = $self->users_rs;
return wantarray ? $rs->all : $rs;
}
sub admins_rs {
my $self = shift;
return $self->all_users_rs({ admin => '1' });
}
sub admins {
my $self = shift;
my $rs = $self->admins_rs;
return wantarray ? $rs->all : $rs;
}
Or you can create a base result class called Person, then Admin and
User classes as a views (CREATE VIEW) over Person, thus you can define
the rels like:
__PACKAGE__->has_many('admins', 'My::Schema::Result::User::Admin',
{ 'foreign.company_id' => 'self.company_id' });
__PACKAGE__->has_many('users', 'My::Schema::Result::User',
{ 'foreign.company_id' => 'self.company_id' });
__PACKAGE__->has_many('all_users', 'My::Schema::Result::Person',
{ 'foreign.company_id' => 'self.company_id' });

Just in User should be enough.
