The trait Idable provides a method equalsId that in turn relies on the
method getId(). If this method does not exist on a class mixing in this
trait, the method will fail.
Adding the getId() as an abstract method to the trait will make sure it
is available.
The method user does only exist in Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\Guard, but not in Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\Factory.
It seems like the method you are trying to call exists only in some of the
possible types.
Let’s take a look at an example:
classA{publicfunctionfoo(){}}classBextendsA{publicfunctionbar(){}}/** * @param A|B $x */functionsomeFunction($x){$x->foo();// This call is fine as the method exists in A and B.$x->bar();// This method only exists in B and might cause an error.}

This check looks for methods that are used by a trait but not required by it.
To illustrate, let’s look at the following code example
The trait
Idable
provides a methodequalsId
that in turn relies on the methodgetId()
. If this method does not exist on a class mixing in this trait, the method will fail.Adding the
getId()
as an abstract method to the trait will make sure it is available.
