[lukashovancik]

After update composer , shows me "Call to undefined method Jenssegers\Mongodb\Query\Builder::getName()" after php artisan db:seed .

Laravel version: 5.4.21 - error
Laravel version: 5.4.15 - ok

I'm also getting this error in laravel 5.4.21.

It pops up when i'm using factory()->create().

A workaround is to use factory()->make() and then save all the models in a loop.
Dosen't work with factory states thought..

Quick dirty fix to get your tests to work before a proper solution is in place;

in Jenssegers\Mongodb\Eloquent\Builder.php

add

    public function getName() {
        return "mongodb";
    }

The break happend from Laravel version 5.4.19 => 5.4.20. Unfortunately I couldn't find a quick sophisticated fix.

A better temporal solution (which doesn't involve modifying vendor files), is loading a macro into the builder.

This can be done in a service provider such as app\Providers\AppServiceProvider.php:

use Jenssegers\Mongodb\Eloquent\Builder;

...

public function register() {
    Builder::macro('getName', function() {
        return 'mongodb';
    });
}

If you are using multiple mongo connections (eg: for different models), or use a different name for the mongo connection then the above fix needs a bit of tweaking. Try the following instead (it uses the builder's model's connection, as it should):

use Jenssegers\Mongodb\Eloquent\Builder;

...

public function register() {
    Builder::macro('getName', function() {
        return $this->getModel()->getConnectionName();
    });
}

I believe this was fixed by #1300. Can anyone confirm?

In Lumen this problem still happening, I fixed it switching to version v3.3.0-alpha.
