After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

Cast Eloquent Model Instances

This package allows you to cast entire Eloquent models. Just like Eloquent's built-in feature for casting attributes but for Model instances.

Cast a base Eloquent model into class model which will share all its attributes but may have a different configuration or relationships. The casting occurs automatically when fetching from database. Here is a very basic example of how this may work:

Installation

Usage

You need at least 2 classes for this to work, a generic class which will be the base Model class with all common attributes and the specific casted class which will be resolved using those attributes.

Let's use cars in our example. Car will be our generic model and TeslaCar and FordCar the more specific classes the cars will be resolved to.

The base model should just use the CastsModel trait and implement the getCastedModelClass method which will be responsible of resolving which class should be this model be casted to based on its attributes data.

That's all to do. The underlying logic will be casting our Car instances to TeslaCar or FordCar when retrieving models:

It will also work right when creating a model using the create method:

Eloquent collections will be casted too:
