Laravel-ide-helper: :meta & spark.laravel.com?

Created on 23 Apr 2016 · 8Comments · Source: barryvdh/laravel-ide-helper

When I run

artisan ide-helper:meta

I get the following output:

PHP Fatal error:  Call to a member function make() on a non-object in …/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Foundation/Http/FormRequest.php on line 77


  [Symfony\Component\Debug\Exception\FatalErrorException]
  Call to a member function make() on a non-object

FormRequest.php:77

   use Illuminate\Contracts\Validation\Factory as ValidationFactory;
   # # #
   $factory = $this->container->make(ValidationFactory::class);

Since I am ignorant, I tried this w artisan tinker:

   app()->make(Illuminate\Contracts\Validation\Factory::class);

which gives

   => Illuminate\Validation\Factory {#216}

Then, I changed FormRequest.php:76-77 to

   dd($this);
   $factory = $this->container->make(ValidationFactory::class);

and ran artisan ide-helper:meta...

Any suggestions on what to try next?

Having (almost) the same issue.

Put a var_dump on line 84 in /spark/vendor/barryvdh/laravel-ide-helper/src/Console/MetaCommand.php

This i what I'm getting when doing: php artisan ide-helper:meta

``` ......
/spark/vendor/barryvdh/laravel-ide-helper/src/Console/MetaCommand.php:84:
string(4) "view"
/spark/vendor/barryvdh/laravel-ide-helper/src/Console/MetaCommand.php:97:
/spark/vendor/barryvdh/laravel-ide-helper/src/Console/MetaCommand.php:84:
string(35) "Laravel\Spark\Providers\ImageManger"
spark/vendor/barryvdh/laravel-ide-helper/src/Console/MetaCommand.php:97:

[Symfony\Component\Debug\Exception\FatalThrowableError]
Fatal error: Call to a member function make() on null`

```

Sorry I don't have Spark. You could try to narrow down what instance gives problems, so I can ignore them in the configuration.
Or if someone sponsors a licence for Spark, I'll see if I can reproduce ;)

Having the same issue as well.

Currently we can't share Spark licenses, due to the terms of service. However I don't see why @taylorotwell https://github.com/taylorotwell can't give you one for free so you can fix the issue.

Hi all,

I managed to get the command to run by temporarily commenting out this line that is within the 'providers' array in the config/app.php file:
Illuminate\Foundation\Providers\FoundationServiceProvider::class

OR even better, to include the problematic instances in the meta command, I added a constructor to the _vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Foundation/Http/FormRequest.php_ file as follows, to inject the container instance:

    public function __construct(array $query, array $request, array $attributes, array $cookies, array $files, array $server, $content, Container $container)
    {
        parent::__construct($query, $request, $attributes, $cookies, $files, $server, $content);
        $this->container = $container;
    }

Add the above constructor method and then run the command and it shouldn't fail, at least not for the same reason. It seems that the $container property is supposed to be manually set using the setContainer() method when this class is used. Not sure why dependency injection was not used, but I'm sure there is a good reason.

_Please note: These are just temporary workarounds. These changes should be reverted after successfully running the command as they will be overwritten when composer updates this file to a new version in any case, and will probably break something in the normal usage of the Spark application._

_I also assume that this would only ever be done in a local/dev ENV, but just in case, I take no responsibility if doing the above breaks anything, and please don't do it in production!_ ;-)

@barryvdh - I'm not sure if this helps you in fixing the problem?

Hi everyone,

I think having a similar issue related to laravel/spark:

PHP Fatal error:  Call to a member function ownsTeam() on null in $pathToProject/spark/src/Http/Requests/Settings/Teams/Subscription/CreateSubscriptionRequest.php on line 22

Commenting out temporally SparkServiceProvider in config/app.php resolved the command as suggested by @garethlawson

Any idea on this issue?
