Returning always true in laravel user model for positive integer

class User extends .....
{
protected $casts = [
        'email_verified_at' => 'datetime',
    'enabled' => 'boolean',
    ];



public function isEnabled(): bool
    {
        return $this->enabled == 1 ? true : false;
    }

}

in MySQL Table

enabled is tinyint unsigned

in controller

$user->isEnabled() //Returning always true in laravel user model for positive integer

>Solution :

You have set enabled feld as tinyint and you have said true for all positve integer ; so rewrite as below

protected $casts = [
        'email_verified_at' => 'datetime',
    'enabled' => 'boolean', // remove this line  as you casting enabled as boolen which returns true on positive integer
    ];
