Framework: Laravel 8 factories missing afterCreatingState

Created on 10 Sep 2020 · 4Comments · Source: laravel/framework

Laravel Version: 8.0.0
PHP Version: 7.3.21
Database Driver & Version:

Description:

While converting my old tests to the new Factory class, I'm unable to find how to reproduce the afterCreatingState function.

Steps To Reproduce:

I tried the following:

public function admin() {
  $this->afterCreating(function (User $user) {
    $user->admin_user()->save(new AdminUser);
  }
  return $this->state([]);
}

but the afterCreating callback never fires. I don't know where else to put the block. Is this an oversight or am I missing something?

Read the docs a little more thoroughly, I missed that the callback must be returned:

public function admin() {
  return $this->afterCreating(function (User $user) {
    $user->admin_user()->save(new AdminUser);
  });
}

You are missing ); at the fourth line but thanks anyway, it solved my problem :)
