Differences (and errors) upon different notations

[francescverdu]

Very confused about this, it really seems an internal bug.

This notation works in crud controller:
$this->crud->addField([ 'name' => 'descripcion', 'type' => 'text', ]);

but his alternative notation fails:
CRUD::field('descripcion')->type('text');

The error thrown with the second notation is (very crazy):
Unknown database type bit requested, Doctrine\DBAL\Platforms\MySQL80Platform may not support it.

I don't have any bit field on the table, nor on the whole database. The table has an unsigned bigint as id and a string as "descripcion".

The backpack documentation (v6), on fluent-syntax section, says you must use he CRUD:

use Backpack\CRUD\app\Library\CrudPanel\CrudPanel as CRUD;

but on the generated controllers the use is another one:

use Backpack\CRUD\app\Library\CrudPanel\CrudPanelFacade as CRUD;

maybe the problem is related to this. Did someone experienced this behaviour?

Starting to get the same ugly error using the first notation:

Unknown database type bit requested, Doctrine\DBAL\Platforms\MySQL80Platform may not support it.

when adding a field 'type' => 'select', withou bit database fields involved.

Are you sure there is no issue with your database connection?

Can you open a tinker session with php artisan tinker and do a \App\Models\SomeModel::all()?

Of course, in fact the List operation works with no problem, the table content is shown perfect, the issue appear when click to "edit" on a row.

Sorry for the question, I just never got that error.

I found this in stack overflow, maybe this helps you? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46174131/doctrine-unknown-database-type-bit-requested-but-i-dont-use-bit

Try searching your project, including the vendor folder for something related with the bit type column, AFAIK we don't use it anywhere in Backpack.
