Laravel Sail integration

[JakubSzczesniak]

Currently, the solution does not work with the standard Laravel Sail setup because Sail uses the Artisan server instead of Nginx. It would be beneficial if the sail up command could set up both a web server and a WebSocket server with Reverb.

Thanks. Right now we don't have plans for this, sorry.

wait what? reverb is literally the next item under sail in the laravel docs, but it doesn't work together?

Hey all!

Reverb works perfectly well with sail. You just need some added config for ports: in your docker-compose.yml:

        ports:
            - '${APP_PORT:-80}:80'
            - '${VITE_PORT:-5173}:${VITE_PORT:-5173}'
            - '${REVERB_PORT:-8080}:${REVERB_PORT:-8080}'

Just be sure to stop and start sail again to apply the new config. As for the other requirements you can set supervisor to monitor the reverb server, and create your own start arguments too. Hope that helps.

Thanks Tyler yeah I misunderstood this, it sounded like this thread implied sail doesn't work with reverb full stop. I got it working, but the reverb documentation is shockingly bad and makes a lot of assumptions about previous knowledge I think. In my case I found what I needed to make reverb work (Authorizing private broadcast channels) hidden in the sanctum documentation.
