I've been trying to find a way to retrieve the attributes passed to a factory within the definition method but have no luck, I first attempted to access the $this->states property (within the definition method) which returns a closure and then attempted to retrieve the attributes from there but have had no luck with this.
I am currently using the factories below:-
<?php
namespace Database\Factories;
use App\Models\Developer;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\Factory;
/**
* @extends \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\Factory<\App\Models\Developer>
*/
class DeveloperFactory extends Factory
{
/**
* Specify the corresponding model for the factory
*
* @var string $model
*/
protected $model = Developer::class;
/**
* Define the model's default state.
*
* @return array<string, mixed>
*/
public function definition()
{
return [
'name' => $this->faker->firstName
];
}
public function configure()
{
$this->afterCreating(function (Developer $developer) {
User::factory()->create([
'userable_type' => $developer->getMorphClass(),
'userable_id' => $developer->id
]);
});
}
}
<?php
namespace Database\Factories;
use App\Models\User;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\Factory;
use Illuminate\Support\Str;
class UserFactory extends Factory
{
/**
* The name of the factory's corresponding model.
*
* @var string
*/
protected $model = User::class;
/**
* Define the model's default state.
*
* @return array
*/
public function definition()
{
/**
* TODO: get any attributes that are passed into this factory
* e.g.userable_type, userable_id
*
* If these attributes are passed into the factory, stop the faker randomly generating a
* factory for a random user type and use the one passed into the factory
*/
$userableModel = (new $this->faker->userTypeModel)->factory()->create();
return [
'userable_type' => $userableModel->getMorphClass(),
'userable_id' => $userableModel->id,
'name' => $this->faker->name(),
'email' => $this->faker->unique()->safeEmail(),
'email_verified_at' => now(),
'password' => bcrypt('admin1234'), // password
'remember_token' => Str::random(10)
];
}
/**
* Indicate that the model's email address should be unverified.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\Factory
*/
public function unverified()
{
return $this->state(function (array $attributes) {
return [
'email_verified_at' => null,
];
});
}
}
