Laravel-medialibrary: Declaration of App\Models\Task::registerMediaConversions(?App\Models\Media $media = NULL) must be compatible with Spatie\MediaLibrary\HasMedia\HasMedia::registerMediaConversions(?Spatie\MediaLibrary\Models\Media $media = NULL)

[fsaravi]

I set my Media Model in config file that is extend of Spatie\MediaLibrary\Models\Media and it is in App\Models namespace.

when I try to add registerMediaConversions method to my model that has some media, raise this error:

Declaration of App\Models\Task::registerMediaConversions(?App\Models\Media $media = NULL) must be compatible with Spatie\MediaLibrary\HasMedia\HasMedia::registerMediaConversions(?Spatie\MediaLibrary\Models\Media $media = NULL)

this error is completely clear. the method should completely compatible with method that declares in interface HasMedia.

This is worked for me. (php7.3, laravel6.4)

• from this in my Model:

public function registerMediaConversions() { }

• to this in my Model:

public function registerMediaConversions(Media $media = null) { }

In case someone else has this error... don't forget to add this at the beginning of your model:
use Spatie\MediaLibrary\MediaCollections\Models\Media;

[priceluke]

public function registerMediaConversions(Media $media = null) : void

Just add the void part to the end of the function

worked for me @priceluke, thanks
otherwise I would get:

_Method 'App\Channel::registerMediaConversions()' is not compatible with method 'Spatie\MediaLibrary\HasMedia::registerMediaConversions()'._

But what if I use a custom Media model? I still get this error..

@cerw hi, do you find a solution at this problem please?

@valh1996 not really I had to use the Media that comes from the Package. So far no real problem but you do all the custom relationship method from the custom model.
