Factory method pattern as type guard for classes with trait












0












$begingroup$


I want to accept an eloquent model with a trait in some method. I can't type hint it, so I created guard class with factory method and using it for type checking. Is there code smell?



class SearchableModel extends Model
{
use Searchable;

public static function from(Searchable $searchable) :IlluminateDatabaseEloquentModel
{
return $searchable;
}

}

public function someMethod(Searchable $model) {
$model = SearchableModel::from($model);
$model->search('term');
}


P.S. My motivation is using static analysis
