:information_source: Laravel 11 no longer requires you to maintain the default configuration files. Your configuration now merges with framework defaults.
Shift streamlined your configuration files by removing options that matched the Laravel defaults and preserving your true customizations. These are values which are not changeable through ENV
variables.
If you wish to keep the full set of configuration files, Shift recommends running artisan config:publish --all --force
to get the latest configuration files from Laravel 11, then reapplying the customizations Shift streamlined.
:information_source: Shift detected customized options within your configuration files which may be set with an ENV
variable. To help keep your configuration files streamlined, you may set the following variables. Be sure adjust any values per environment.
BCRYPT_ROUNDS=10
CACHE_STORE=file
DB_CONNECTION=mysql
MAIL_MAILER=smtp
QUEUE_CONNECTION=sync
SESSION_DRIVER=file
Note: some of these may simply be values which changed between Laravel 10 and Laravel 11. You may ignore any ENV
variables you do not need to customize.
:warning: The BROADCAST_DRIVER
, CACHE_DRIVER
, and DATABASE_URL
environment variables were renamed in Laravel 11 to BROADCAST_CONNECTION
, CACHE_STORE
, and DB_URL
, respectively.
Shift automated this change for your committed files, but you should review any additional locations where your environment is configured and update to the new variable names.
:information_source: Laravel 11 now updates the timestamp when publishing vendor migrations. This may cause problems in existing applications when these migrations were previously published and ran with their default timestamp.
To preserve the original behavior, Shift disabled this feature in your database.php
configuration file. If you do not have any vendor migrations or have squashed all of your existing migrations, you may re-enable the update_date_on_publish
option. If this is the only customization within database.php
, you may remove this configuration file.
:warning: Previously, Laravel would append a colon (:
) to any cache key prefix for DynamoDB, Memcache, or Redis. Laravel 11 no longer appends a colon to your cache key prefix. If you are using one of these stores, you should append a colon to your prefix to avoid invalidating your cache.
:warning: Many of the default drivers changed in Laravel 11. For example, the default database driver is sqlite
and the default cache store is database
. If you experience errors setting up your environment, be sure you have properly set your ENV
variables for these drivers. If you wish to adopt the new defaults, you may follow the documentation to set them up for your application.
