Using with datatable

[kovilevi98]

I am using the laravel-model-states on my Model class like:

class Order extends Model
{
    use HasFactory, HasStates;

    protected $casts = [
        'state' => OrderState::class,
    ];
}

Where the OrderState is my abstract class:

abstract class OrderState extends State
{
    abstract public function color(): string;
    abstract public function title(): string;
    
    public static function config(): StateConfig
    {
        return parent::config()
            ->default(Process::class)
            ->allowTransition(Process::class, Confirmed::class)
        ;
    }
}

I would like to use my Order model at my DataTable render function.

    public function query(Order $model)
    {
        $query = $model->newQuery();
        return $query;
    }

All in all, during this render function it is going out of memory because of circular references.

Have you had any luck?

Have a workaround

on runtime override the cast before passing it to laravel-datatables

// override state , in this case just a string
Model::withCasts(['state' => 'string']) 
...

if needed access methods on states on each row, is bit hacky but better then nothing

AbstractState::make($model->state, $model);
