You don't need this:
use Auth;
It is helpful to think of this as aliasing rather than importing.

the use statement with non-compound name 'Auth' has no effect laravel
I am unable to use Auth in my seeder class. I need to use tenant_id for my saas application. Here's my seeder class.
use Illuminate\Database\Seeder; use App\AccountType; use Auth;
class AccountTypeTableSeeder extends Seeder {
public function run()
{
$accountType = new AccountType;
$accountType->name = 'Travel Agent';
$accountType->description = 'It is the description of the Travel Agent, so you write in detaisl about the account type.';
$accountType->tenant_id = Auth::user()->tenant_id;
$accountType->save();
}
}

@wangchen Yeah, you don’t need to import Auth because it’s in the global namespace, and seeders also live in the global namespace, so the import is redundant.

@tykus and @martinbean if i don't import then m getting the error, "Trying to get the property of non-object". Since i needed the tenand_id, i did it with the last inserted id of the user and got the tenant_id when seeding programmatically.
Artisan::call('db:seed');
i used instead the User model
User::latest()->first()->tenant_id;

@wangchen You’re not going to have an authenticated user in a seeder class. A user doesn’t “log in” when you running seeds.

@martinbean I guess so.And thanks for the info.
