Hey. I believe the Typehints on these methods are incorrect.
The return type currently reads as
If a non null default is specified, then the return type will be the default. Otherwise, the return type will be null
This doesn't take into account whether a value for this key is present. See a (very) minimal reproduction in PHPStan.
My understanding is that the dumped type here should not be
5
, as this expression would return'bar'
. As such, a typehint more than mixed cannot be offered here.It may be worth noting that this was not an issue interrupting any actual code - I noticed it whilst investigating an issue I was having with Laravel Idea.
For reference - the Cache facade only offers a return type of mixed
