planetscale

Read the Bref Laravel documentation and make sure you have everything to get started first.

Setup

First, install the dependencies:

composer install --optimize-autoloader

Next, create a PlanetScale account and create a new database.

Finally, set up the database settings in .env:

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=<host url>
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=<database name>
DB_USERNAME=<user>
DB_PASSWORD=<password>

Deployment

The application can be deployed on AWS by running:

php artisan config:clear

serverless deploy

Now that Laravel is deployed, we can run php artisan migrate in AWS Lambda to set up our tables:

serverless bref:cli --args="migrate --force"

For our demo, we can also seed the database with fake users:

serverless bref:cli --args="migrate:fresh --seed --force"
