Warning about DB::listen

[decadence]

I noticed a limitation: inside DB::listen you cannot use data insertion into the database, because in this case the insertion from the Eloquent side breaks due to the fact that LAST_INSERT_ID returns the ID not for the original record, but for the one that is inserted inside DB::listen.

For example if you want to log slow queries:

DB::listen(function (QueryExecuted $query) {
    if($query->time > 500) {
        SlowQuery::create([
            "sql" => $query->sql
        ]);
    }
});

$post = Post::create(...); // if this takes more than 500 ms
$post->getKey(); // ID will be from SlowQuery model, not from Post

Not so easy to detect this immediately.

Looks like this should be obvious for any Laravel programmer 🤷
So good luck for those who will use insertion in DB::listen 🫡
