Laravel 8 Team::factory() not found

factory(App\Models\Team::class)->create()->id instead?

Well, the more I look at this it's somewhat circular. Teams asks for a user_id, so we'd need to commit the user first. THEN, users has a current_team_id that we'd need to update after the team is committed.

So, I'm not sure:

1. How important this personal team stuff is to jetstream
2. How to code around the circular reference. Guess I could simply skip the factory and simply put a loop around using the model classes and deal with the circular references.

The current_team_id is nullable, Laravel will only update it only after you have login successfully. If you have previously selected Team and stored in the database, the team will be the default selected. You will need to create a team after the user is created.

1. It's up to you. An example use case will be you have multiple projects which including different members, you will need it.

2. Maybe you don't need the team module at all?

Thanks for your thoughts. I do want a group & permissions feature and was going to attempt to use teams for that. I don't have current plans to allow for switching teams.

For now, I'm happy enough just to get some sample users in there. I'll move on for now.

Same error here, and my use-case is a lot simpler with no circular reference.

<?php

namespace Database\Seeders;

use App\Role;
use App\User;
use Illuminate\Database\Seeder;
use Faker\Generator as Faker;

// Call using command: php artisan db:seed --class=AdminUsersTableSeeder
class AdminUsersTableSeeder extends Seeder
{
    public function run(Faker $faker)
    {
        $adminRole = Role::where([
            'title' => 'Admin',
        ])->firstOrFail();

        User::factory()->create([
            'id'                => 1,
            'email'             => env('ADMIN_EMAIL'),
            'username'          => env('ADMIN_USERNAME'),
            'password'          => Hash::make(env('ADMIN_PASSWORD')),
            'email_verified_at' => now(),
            'remember_token'    => Str::random(10),
            'created_at'        => now(),
            'updated_at'        => now(),
        ]);
    }
}

This is the output

$ php artisan db:seed --class=AdminUsersTableSeeder
