Can't extends orginal Model class

[agence86]

Hi,

when i follow your readme.md, il loaded with composer, i included the service provider in app.php but when i create a new model object it doesn't execute the uuid generation. By the way the closure is loaded in the core laravel Model object but it doesn't affect this class...

Even when i try to call

$user= new User(); $user->generateNewUuid(); it throw undefined method in user (and it try to search the method in query builder)

any idea?

Thanks in advance

Can you post a code example? Check that it's actually including the traits as required.

Your model has to extend the Eloquence model. If it's not doing that - you won't see those methods.

Do i have to include the trait in each Models?

User Model

<?php namespace App;

use Illuminate\Auth\Authenticatable;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Illuminate\Auth\Passwords\CanResetPassword;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\Authenticatable as AuthenticatableContract;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\CanResetPassword as CanResetPasswordContract;

class User extends Model implements AuthenticatableContract, CanResetPasswordContract {

    use Authenticatable, CanResetPassword;

    /**
     * The database table used by the model.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $table = 'users';

    /**
     * The attributes that are mass assignable.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $fillable = ['email', 'password'];

    /**
     * The attributes excluded from the model's JSON form.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $hidden = ['password', 'remember_token'];

    public function addresses()
    {
        return $this->belongsToMany('YetismailApi\Models\Moderator');
    }
}

IN a controller

$user = new User();
var_dump($user->generateNewUuid());

throws undefined method generateNewUuid in Builder class

Thanks

No, just extending the Eloquence model is enough (which you're not doing).

[agence86]

so i need to use use Eloquence\Database\Model; insted of use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

So i dont understand the bind effect in service provider. I would think it will include extended methods in the core Model class

[kirkbushell]

Correct.

[agence86]

Right thank you i'll try this way.

[agence86]

Last question btw what is the effect of the bind in service provider so?

[kirkbushell]

The reason for the service provider, is to re-bind the model to the Eloquence implementation. This is necessary for things like pivot tables and camel-casing, ensuring they also abide by the same rules :)

[kirkbushell]

Without it, you end up with snake_case fields in pivot models, but camelCase everywhere else.

ho ok!

Thank you very much! Have a nice day

[kirkbushell]

You too :)
