Call to undefined method CzProject\GitPhp\Git::fetch()

[Lexian-droid]

Hello, I'm experimenting with this tool and I'm kind of having problems, I'm unable to figure out why, but I'm unable to do a Git::Fetch() in my codebase. I am running Laravel 10, Php 8.1, and I have the latest version of CzProject\GitPhp.

The error is

   Error

  Call to undefined method CzProject\GitPhp\Git::fetch()

  at app\Console\Commands\utility_update_packages.php:40
     36▕         foreach ($repositories as $repository) {
     37▕             // Create a new GitPhp instance

     39▕             // Fetch the repository

  2   vendor\laravel\framework\src\Illuminate\Container\Util.php:41
      Illuminate\Container\BoundMethod::Illuminate\Container\{closure}()

and the code is:

<?php

namespace App\Console\Commands;

use Illuminate\Console\Command;
use App\Models\repository;
use CzProject\GitPhp\Git;

class utility_update_packages extends Command
{
    /**
     * The name and signature of the console command.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $signature = 'swu:update_packages';

    /**
     * The console command description.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $description = '';

    /**
     * Execute the console command.
     */
    public function handle()
    {
        $git = new Git;

        // Collect Repositories
        $repositories = repository::all();

        // Fetch each repository
        foreach ($repositories as $repository) {
            // Create a new GitPhp instance

            // Fetch the repository
            $git->fetch();

            // echo it out
            echo "Updated " . $repository->name . "\n";
        }
    }
}

Again I am just experimenting with it, so maybe it's wrong, I'm trying to figure it out for a larger project. Does anyone know what's going on?

Hi, this is correct error, there is no method CzProject\GitPhp\Git::fetch() - you must call this method on CzProject\GitPhp\GitRepository instance, for example:

$git = new Git;

// Collect Repositories
$repositories = repository::all();

// Fetch each repository
foreach ($repositories as $repository) {
    // Create a new GitPhp instance
    $repo = $git->open($pathToRepository);

    // Fetch the repository
    $repo->fetch();

    // echo it out
    echo "Updated " . $repository->name . "\n";
}

Ahh okay thanks for your help, I get a little confused sometimes as I don't know which method the "use" statement should reference.
