DB facade alias support

[mzur]

This failing test highlights the issue that the DB alias for Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB is not properly handled by this plugin.

It could be solved with a new src/Stubs/DBFacadeAlias.stubphp:

<?php

class DB extends Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB
{}

However, I wanted to hear if there is a better solution.

Any progress?

I'm still waiting on feedback from the maintainers.

Sorry but I don't use facades so I don't have much motivation to make them work with this plugin -- however I will happily merge any PRs that fix the issue!

[mzur]

IIRC in my initial test the additional stub fixed the issue. But now somehow it doesn't. I'll take this up again when I have more time. Meanwhile if anyone is interested in this, please feel free to suggest a solution.

[mzur]

I had another look: Does anything speak against making the facade stub function static? Since it's a facade, the function should be called statically anyway. This resolves my failing test case but I don't know about any other possible implications.

thanks @mzur !
