Call to a member function compileColumnExists()

[kevin olson]

Setup is the latest version of Lumen with mongodb.

I'm 99% sure I have everything setup right from your example and I get:

Fatal error: Call to a member function compileColumnExists() on null in /Users/k/opsis/vendor/illuminate/database/Schema/Builder.php on line 116

With this data it is impossible for me to determine what's wrong or if this is even an issue related to this library. I need context.

Some code + laravel-mongodb version + laravel5-jsonapi version, please?

[kevin olson]

Apologies,

laravel-mongodb version is v3.0
laravel5-jsonapi version is v2.4

Doing some research it seems as if null is being passed instead of a Grammar instance?

More details:

Lumen service provider include:

$app->register(\NilPortugues\Laravel5\JsonApi\Laravel5JsonApiServiceProvider::class);
$app->configure('jsonapi');

jsonapi configuration file

<?php

use App\Transformers\ItemTransformer;
return [ ItemTransformer::class, ];

routes.php

$app->get('/', ['as' => 'home', 'uses' => 'Home@index']);

$app->group(
  ['namespace' => 'App\Http\Controllers'], function($app) {
    $app->get(
      'items', [
      'as' => 'item.index',
      'uses' =>'ItemController@index'
    ]);
    $app->get(
      'item/{item_id}', [
      'as' => 'item.show', 
      'uses' =>'ItemController@show'
    ]);
  }
);

Transformer

<?php

namespace App\Transformers;

use App\Models\Item;
use NilPortugues\Api\Mappings\JsonApiMapping;

class ItemTransformer implements JsonApiMapping
{

  public function getClass() {
    return Item::class;
  }

  public function getAlias() {
    return 'item';
  }

  public function getAliasedProperties() {
    return [];
  }

  public function getHideProperties() {
    return [];
  }

  public function getIdProperties() {
    return ['id'];
  }

  public function getUrls() {
    return [
      'self' => ['name' => 'item.show', 'as_id' => 'id'],
      'items' => ['name' => 'item.index'],
      ];
  }

  public function getRelationships() {
    return [];
  }

}

Controller

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use App\Models\Item;
use NilPortugues\Laravel5\JsonApi\Controller\LumenJsonApiController;

class ItemController extends LumenJsonAPiController
{

  public function index() {
  }

  public function getdataModel() {
    return new Item();
  }

}

and my model

namespace App\Models;

use Jenssegers\Mongodb\Eloquent\Model as Eloquent;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Validation\ValidatesRequests;

class Item extends Eloquent
{

  public $timestamps = false;
  protected $collection = 'item';
  protected $primaryKey = 'id';
  protected $appends = [];

  protected $dates = [
    'dates.created',
    'dates.updated'
  ];

  protected $fillable = [
    'title',
    'image',
    'creator',
    'subjects',
    'dates',
  ];
}

@acidjazz does this happen if you turn off or default non-dot field names for $dates?

I believe the problem on the lib is there from the code you posted. Just to make sure.
