Laravel 8 factory state afterCreating

Question

Laravel 7 factories had method afterCreatingState() where you could define what should happen after Model with specific state was saved into database.

$factory->afterCreatingState(App\User::class, 'active', function ($user, $faker) {
    // ...
});

Laravel 8 factories don't have this method, instead there is only general afterCreating().

public function configure()
{
    return $this->afterCreating(function (User $user) {
        //
    });
}

How to achieve this behavior?

Answer 1

It is possible to define this behavior right in the state definition method.

public function active()
{
    return $this->state(function (array $attributes) {
        return [
            'active' => true,
        ];
    })->afterCreating(function (User $user) {
        // ...
    });
}
