Summer Sale! All accounts are 50% off this week.
I am trying to create tests and to do so I need to make factories. This is no problem. But one thing I can't get working is creating factories for my polymorph relationship.
Our app has the following:
Party model with this relation
public function partyable(): MorphTo
{
return $this->morphTo();
}
Then we have a directory called Parties. In this directory we have the main class called PartyDefault. This has a relation back to the Party.
public function party(): MorphOne
{
return $this->morphOne(Party::class, 'partyable');
}
So the Party model stores the polymorph fields and the PartyDefault stores the party detail fields. In the parties folder we have more files with a class per party those classes extend the PartyDefault class and they contain the fields used per party.
How can I create a factory which fills both tables (parties and party_details) with fake data and keep them related?
Would something like this work?
TypeA and TypeB would be PartyDefault sub-classes and would write to their own tables.
$typeAParties = Party::factory()->count(3)->for(
TypeA::factory(), 'partyable'
)->create();
$typeBParties = Party::factory()->count(3)->for(
TypeB::factory(), 'partyable'
)->create();

Thanks I got it to work. Only I needed to add a enforceMorphMap as well to get it to work.
Relation::enforceMorphMap([
'App\Models\Parties\PartyPolicyHolder' => 'App\Models\Parties\PartyPolicyHolder',
'App\Models\Parties\PartyIntermediary' => 'App\Models\Parties\PartyIntermediary',
]);
Party::factory()->for(
PartyPolicyHolder::factory(), 'partyable',
)->create(['claim_id' => $claim->id, 'entity_type' => 'policyHolder']);
Party::factory()->for(
PartyIntermediary::factory(), 'partyable'
)->create(['claim_id' => $claim->id, 'entity_type' => 'intermediary']);
Great to know! Have a nice day =)
