Continue If

[ProgrammerZ]

Not sure if Laravel has any similar functionality. But I found below a nice alternative to if statements.

trait Continuable
{
    public function if(bool $condition): ?static
    {
        return $condition ? $this : null;
    }

    public function ifNot(bool $condition): ?static
    {
        return !$condition ? $this : null;
    }
}

And use like this.

$model->if(true)?->update([
     'attribute' => now()
]);
