Error Identifier: attribute.deprecatedEnum

Every error reported by PHPStan has an error identifier. Here’s a list of all error identifiers. In PHPStan Pro you can see the error identifier next to each error and filter errors by their identifiers.

Code example #

<?php declare(strict_types = 1);

/** @deprecated Use NewStatus instead */
enum OldStatus
{
	case Active;
	case Inactive;
}

#[\Attribute]
class StatusAttribute
{
	public function __construct(public string $status)
	{
	}
}

// Somewhere using OldStatus in an attribute context:
// Attribute references deprecated enum OldStatus.

Why is it reported? #

This error is reported by the phpstan-deprecation-rules extension.

An attribute references an enum that has been marked as @deprecated. Deprecated enums are planned for removal in a future version, and attributes should not rely on them.

How to fix it #

Replace the usage of the deprecated enum with its recommended replacement.

How to ignore this error #

You can use the identifier attribute.deprecatedEnum to ignore this error using a comment:

// @phpstan-ignore attribute.deprecatedEnum
codeThatProducesTheError();

You can also use only the identifier key to ignore all errors of the same type in your configuration file in the ignoreErrors parameter:

parameters:
	ignoreErrors:
		-
			identifier: attribute.deprecatedEnum
