Override some methods, best way?

[wondergitluda]

I need to override the method

Builder.php -> mergeStatic

switching in $attrs and $old like

$attrs['class'] = self::formatGroupClass($old, $attrs);

because I need to "add" class values after the blade template inserted one, but I can't realise how to do it. I create a new MyBuilder class that extends the Builder.php one, but how can I say that the app to use myBuilder instead of the old one.

How can i do this?

Hi @ItsLhoudini sorry for the delay.

I've reviewed the code, but I don't think I can come up with a clever way to work around this. One option would be to:

1. Extend MyBuilder as you have done.
2. Create your own Blade::extend(...) similar to the one in lm-attrs.php but use a different matcher pattern. Like my-endattrs and use MyBuilder in the replacement call.
3. Copy and edit the bootstrap-navbar-items.blade.php to use your new blade extensions like @my-endattrs

But, this is not very elegant or user friendly.

I think I will need to update the blade extension to allow extending the MyBuilder class, so that you would only need to replace the single function.

Do you still need this?
