Fatal error during composer update - Illuminate\Http\Request::toArray()

[LeVadim]

• Laravel Version: 8.7.1
• PHP Version: 7.3.17
• Database Driver & Version: NA

Description:

Hello! During the composer update or composer dumpautoload I am receiving the following error message:

PHP Fatal error: Declaration of Illuminate\Http\Request::toArray() must be compatible with Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request::toArray(): array in vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Http/Request.php on line 20

In Request.php line 20:

Declaration of Illuminate\Http\Request::toArray() must be compatible with S
ymfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request::toArray(): array

Script @php artisan package:discover handling the post-autoload-dump event returned with error code 255

After I added ": array" to toArray function, the error messaged disappeared.

public function toArray():array
{
    return $this->all();
}

Can you please look into this? Thanks!

Steps To Reproduce:

composer update or composer dumpautoload

Seems like this commit https://github.com/symfony/http-foundation/commit/af8a5353c61d7d656768cba750e35d846228ea32 was the one to raise this issue. That Symphony added "public function toArray(): array" and now Laravel might need to add it too.

Thanks!!

It seems like that change to http-foundation isn't released yet, as the latest tagged version is from a week ago. How'd you get composer to update to that version?

[LeVadim]

I wouldn't know, I have just run composer update and it updated. This crash was confirmed on 3 different projects. I have tried re-installing whole vendor package too. Perhaps you or someone could try if same issue is coming up on their end?

Thank you!

[AegirLeet]

Can you post the output of composer show symfony/http-foundation?

[LeVadim]

Sure

Well that's interesting.

Could you post the output of composer why symfony/http-foundation too?

[LeVadim]

Sure

symfony/http-kernel dev-master requires symfony/http-foundation (^4.4|^5.0)

[ahinkle]

What's the output of composer show -i? Looks like you are requiring many developmental versions of packages.

[LeVadim]

It looks like so, perhaps I can clear dev-master packages if they are impacting?

You should definitely stick to stable versions instead of dev-*. That should solve the issue for now.

Still, I think Laravel will have to restrict symfony/http-foundation to <5.2.0 for now to prevent this from becoming a problem once they release this change as 5.2.0. I'll submit a PR.

[LeVadim]

How can i clear dev-*?

Thank you

[AegirLeet]

I'm not sure how you got those into your project in the first place. Generally speaking, you can use composer why <package name> to figure out why a package is being pulled in. So when you do composer why symfony/http-foundation and it shows you package foo/bar is pulling in dev-*, you can then do composer why foo/bar to figure out why that is being pulled in etc. - until you've found the root cause.

Try composer why -r symfony/http-foundation too. Haven't tested it, but that might show you the root cause directly.

[GrahamCampbell]

Please open an issue with symfony to let them know of this accidental breaking change they have made.

[LeVadim]

Adding dependency in composer.json fixes the problem. "symfony/http-foundation": "5.1.0"

Thank you for prompt responses!

[GrahamCampbell]

Will be fixed by https://github.com/symfony/symfony/pull/38403. :)

[LeVadim]

Perfect, thank you!
