Laravel-ide-helper: Flysystem\Local error back on Lumen 8

[simon-4c]

Versions:

• ide-helper Version: 2.8.x-dev
• Lumen Version: 8.2.1
• PHP Version: 7.4.4

Description:

Generate fails due to a dependency on League\Flysystem\Local. league/flysystem is installed but the class doesn't seem to exist.

Steps To Reproduce:

php artisan ide-helper:generate

Error shown:

In FilesystemManager.php line 164:

  Class 'League\Flysystem\Adapter\Local' not found

Looks like league/flysystem 2.0 changed its structure, so now this is in here:

• File: vendor/league/flysystem/src/Local/LocalFilesystemAdapter.php
• Class path: League\Flysystem\Local\LocalFilesystemAdapter

Version 1.x is the one that fixes this error: composer require --dev league/flysystem=^1.1 but exhibits bug #1042 instead

[Uplink03]

The workaround I have now is:

1. composer require --dev league/flysystem=^1.1

2. Edit _vendor/barryvdh/laravel-ide-helper/src/IdeHelperServiceProvider.php_

   Remove or comment out this code (search for Application, lines 119-121 in mine):

           if ((int) Application::VERSION < 8) {
               return new PhpEngine();
           }
   

Of course, this doesn't help that much if you want to commit everything in git and have it work later.
