Cannot use "Polygon" type correctly

[andresrex]

I have an array of coordinates, which I am passing to the controller and then parse it into an "array of Points" as follows:

            Log::info($request->polygon);
            $arrayOfPoints = [];
            foreach( $request->polygon as $point ){
                $arrayOfPoints[] = new Point($point[0], $point[1]);
            }
            Log::info(new Polygon($arrayOfPoints)); // Line 28

And immediately I get the following error:

Polygon extends MultiLineString, so you need to pass an array of LineString to instantiate it.

$arrayOfPoints = [];
foreach($request->polygon as $point) {
    $arrayOfPoints[] = new Point($point[0], $point[1]);
}
$lineString = new LineString($arrayOfPoints);
$polygon = new Polygon([$lineString]);

MySQL POLYGON supports both the exterior and interior boundaries.
