Hello,

if you check CustomFieldTrait there is a relation that can be used to join the models with their custom fields values


    /**
     * Return custom field relation for specified field name.
     *
     * @param $fieldName
     * @return mixed
     */
    public function customFieldRelation($fieldName)
    {
        return $this->morphOne(CustomField::class, 'parent', 'parent_type')
            ->where('field_name', $fieldName);
    }

ao I assume you can use it with Model queries.
