Instantiatable
Models that inherit from the Instantiatable interface, allow creating new instances statically and accept a database connection, via the make() method. The Instance concern trait offers a default implementation.
How to use
use Aedart\Contracts\Database\Models\Instantiatable;
use Aedart\Database\Models\Concerns;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class Post extends Model implements Instantiatable
{
use Concerns\Instance;
}
// ... later in your application
$post = Post::make(); // Creates a new instance
Attributes
The make() method accepts an array of attributes.
$post = Post::make([
'author' => 'Christina Stein',
'content' => 'When one avoids totality and attitude, one is able to hurt harmony.'
]);
Connection
Lastly, you may also specify which connection should be used by the model.
$post = Post::make([], 'my-db-connection');
