[6.x] Add 'setRawAttribute' method

[gdebrauwer]

// Set attribute to value.
$model->setRawAttribute('key', $value);

// Set attribute to value and also sync to original attribute.
$model->setRawAttribute('key', $value, true);

Currently it's not possible to skip a mutator of one specific attribute.
The setRawAttributes method exists, but that requires you to provide values for all attributes.

I did not add any tests, because I could not find one for setRawAttributes. Let me know if I should add one.

@taylorotwell I believe this creates a clash: If there is an attribute named 'raw', and the developer wanted to set its value with a mutator using $model->raw = 'value', that mutator method would be named setRawAttribute(...), with a different signature to this new one.

I don't see why this was needed anyway. If someone wants to bypass the framework to set the actual value, they can... the attributes are a public property.

We've reverted this. See #30884

[GrahamCampbell]

I know, that's what lead to my comment, to help anyone who wants this feature. :)

[driesvints]

@GrahamCampbell think we cross-posted at the same time

[gdebrauwer]

@GrahamCampbell the attributes is a protected property.
But I completely agree it should be reverted in its current form, maybe a setRaw function could be better?

[GrahamCampbell]

Heh, well, it can still be set from within the model.

[gdebrauwer]

Oh you mean ‘public’ in that way 😄 I added the ‘setRawAttribute’ because I wanted to set an attribute without created dedicated method in my model

[GrahamCampbell]

Oh you mean ‘public’ in that way

Nah, I meant it in the real way, but was wrong. :P

[GrahamCampbell]

But the premise is the same.
