Configuration instructions

The framework has been downloaded, but we still need to know something to use. This is the configuration. Project-related configuration is in the app/config folder, but there are some other configurations that may be needed here. As a basic tutorial, I will not introduce it one by one. I just want to explain it in some scenarios where you have many configurations.

Configuration instructions in app/config

In the app/config folder, two files are often configured: app. php and database. php. One of them is the configuration item miscellaneous, and the other is the configuration database. Below I will explain the common configurations below:

First, the app. php file

// App/config/app. php file return array (/* | release | Laravel debug module | enabled | enable when set to 'true' (the following settings are default and enabled) | 'false' is disabled. When the program is enabled, an error message will be displayed when an error occurs. | when the program is closed, the page will jump to the error page (usually 404 pages) */'debug' => true,/* | used | application address | used | this address is used only when the Artisan command is used and must be set as the application root directory. | Yes. If you still don't know what I'm talking about, set it to null like below. */'Url' => '',/* | runtime | time zone of the application | runtime | this is the time zone operation. If you have not set PHP, the time zone is the United States time zone, | that is, 'utc'. Do you want to write a website targeting China's tianchao website? Set it to 'Asia/Shanghai. */'Timezone '=> 'Asia/Shanghai',/* | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | application localization | generally, you can set multiple language settings, the default value is 'en'. If you do not have your own language pack, you should leave this value alone. | You can see the Language Pack in the app/lang folder. If you don't have any multilingual idea, you don't need to worry about it. */'Locale' => 'en',/* | secret | application key | secret | this is the key used when Laravel's built-in encryption function is applied, to ensure encryption security. | If your file is not a random 32-bit string, you can use 'php artisan key: generate' | the command generates a 32-bit random string, remember to do this before you write a webpage. | Once you change this string, the contents encrypted with the previous string cannot be found !! */'Key' => '',);

In fact, there is still some content behind app. php, But it basically does not need to be modified. (This is only required when a third-party package is added. We will talk about it later)

Next we will introduce the database. php file

// App/config/database. php file return array (/* | bytes | PDO type | bytes | by default, Laravel databases are operated by PDO, which greatly improves database compatibility. | By default, the returned type is an object, that is, the following default settings. | If you want to return an array, you can set it to 'pdo: FETCH_ASSOC '*/'fetch' => PDO: FETCH_CLASS, /* | connections | default database connection name | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | the name here corresponds to the name in the following 'connections, instead of the database you are using | for your better understanding, I changed a name here */'default' => 'meinv ', /* | database connection name | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | the configuration of various databases is set here, the 'driver 'in each array indicates the type of the database you want to use | you can set multiple configurations for the same database type, just name them separately, like the following 'mysql' and 'meinv' | others, I don't think I need to explain them. It is literal. I believe your English skills (in fact, my English is poor) */'connections' => array ('sqlite '=> array ('driver' => 'sqlite ', 'database' => _ DIR __. '/.. /database/production. sqlite ', 'prefix' => '',), 'mysql' => array ('driver' => 'mysql', 'host' => 'localhost ', 'database' => 'database', 'username' => 'root', 'Password' => '', 'charset' => 'utf8 ', 'colation' => 'utf8 _ unicode_ci ', 'prefix' => '',), 'meinv' => array (// here is the default Connection database name in the above example. It is actually the mysql database 'driver '=> 'mysql ', 'host' => 'localhost', 'database' => 'database', 'username' => 'root', 'Password' => '', 'charset' => 'utf8', 'colation' => 'utf8 _ unicode_ci ', 'prefix' => '',), 'pgsql' => array ('driver '=> 'pgsql', 'host' => 'localhost', 'database' => 'database ', 'username' => 'root', 'Password' => '', 'charset' => 'utf8', 'prefix' => '', 'scheme' => 'public',), 'sqlsrv' => array ('driver '=> 'sqlsrv', 'host' => 'localhost ', 'database' => 'database', 'username' => 'root', 'Password' => '', 'prefix' => '',),),);

Amount ~, You know, I certainly won't even finish it all. for you at the beginning, it is enough to know about database settings.
