In this short article, I will teach you how to use model casts() method in laravel 11 framework.
In Laravel 11, you can define casts as a method in a model. Laravel 11 supports both as a property and as a method. You can now use the `casts()` method to easily define casting in Laravel 11.
Let's see a simple example code of it.
app/Models/Product.php

<?php
namespace App\Models;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use App\Enums\ProductStatus;
class Product extends Model
{
use HasFactory;
/**
* Write code on Method
*
* @return response()
*/
protected $fillable = [
'name', 'body', 'status'
];
/**
* casts define as Property
*/
protected $casts = [
'status' => ProductStatus::class
];
/**
* casts define as method (Right way in Laravel 11)
*/
protected function casts(): array
{
return [
'status' => ProductStatus::class,
];
}
}
I hope it can help you...
