php artisan migrate throw exception

[Extarys]

Hey!

Trying Laravel for the first time (and installed rethinkDB yesterday, it's amazing!) php artisan make:rethink-migration users --create=users

• the use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint; call is still in the file, and rethinkdb is not there
  • the following error occur even if I replace the line with use brunojk\LaravelRethinkdb\Schema\Blueprint;

Also, calling php artisan migrate throw the following error:

$ php artisan migrate
  [Symfony\Component\Debug\Exception\FatalThrowableError]         
  Call to a member function supportsSchemaTransactions() on null

The file:

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
use brunojk\LaravelRethinkdb\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;

class CreateUsersTable extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
          //$table->increments('hero_id');
          $table->string('name');
          //$table->timestamps();
        });
    }

    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        Schema::dropIfExists('users');
    }
}

What should I do? :(

@Extarys rethinkdb dont have increments ids, try use the index method instead. Like this:

public function up()
{
    Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
        // if really is a primary key, change in rethinkdb config of that table 
        // (r.table('users').info() you see) or use the default 'id' field
        $table->index('hero_id'); 

        //that line is not necessary, the fields are dinamically created
        //on inserts and updates operations
        $table->string('name'); 

        // that line too, NoSQL dont need a structure like mysql
        // with the columns created previously
        $table->timestamps(); 
    });
}

Laravel Migrations I only used for index purpouses.

I had (and handle) many errors like this and anothers, the Rethink documentation is very good and help a lot. I copied from the Laravel for MongoDB link some codes to resolve some errors.

I really liked RethinkDB, mostly the realtime feature (is amazing), but for continue safety with that DB, check this link.

Thanks! Yes I do know they "shut down", thanks for the info (you never know) The Linux foundation took over the project. They are suppose to release a new version soon (2.4 I think) May I ask what are you using now? :)

[brunojk]

I did not know about The Linux Foundation, thanks! Is a DB I really like. I really hope it works and they succeed.

I have using RethinkDB yet, in a realtime app, but with nodejs, koajs, rethinkdbdash and socket.io, is very powerfull the changesfeed and I have a proxy (nginx) to get the websockets connection from that server in nodejs.

[Extarys]

Cool! I installed koa a moment ago, may I ask if you use a controller/model middleware and which one if so? The one I found logged that it will be discontinued in the next koa verison :(

I found Koa-socket-2, build over socketio, I will give it a try. koa-router, koa-views with twig and rethinkdbdash.

[brunojk]

Sorry, but the app is very simple and I did not have to use anything like that.

[Extarys]

Dont worry.

Was nice talking to you :P :D
