Deploy Larabook without Forge
Been trying to deploy my costum Larabook app though fortrabbit but the app is too huge already. I got a package on DO and I want to use Dokku to deploy.
Just followed these guides here: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tags/dokku
But I still can't push it to DO. Maybe I'm stupid :{
Level 2
Considering reading https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-use-the-dokku-one-click-install-image-to-deploy-your-app I created a Droplet as described, then I redirected my domain to the Ip adress of the droplet, checked virtual host naming and pasted my public key.
Right after I cd'ed in my local directory
git init
echo vendor > .gitignore
git add .
git remote add remote_name dokku@your_domain.com:name_to_give_your_app
git push remote_name master
Result:
error: src refspec master does not match any.
error: failed to push some refs to 'dokku@domain.com:remote_name'
What did I miss?

Just moved on using LEMP, I just don't get it to work.

When I visit http://robert-richter.com/public I get a blank white page. Been trying to figure it out a day. It has so be something in the Larabook application, because info.php gets displayed.
Just gave all directories chmod 777, I know this is retarded, but I just want to see my application in the browser T_T.

@steve228uk has created a handy tool you might favour https://ftploy.com/
Level 18
@step1step2 have you run composer install on your server too?
Level 2
No I didn't. Getting 404 Not Found now instead. And SQLSTATE[28000] [1045] Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using pas sword: NO) when I try ti migrate the database.
Level 18
Looking at the repo, it looks like database.php is using some environment variables for the database. Have you set these up?
Level 2
Yes.
<?php
return [
'DB_HOST' => 'localhost',
'DB_USERNAME' => 'root',
'DB_PASSWORD' => 'secret',
'DB_NAME' => 'larabook_testing'
];
Level 65
In routes file, try
return getenv('DB_PASSWORD');
Level 2
That didn't do anything, wondering why you want me to use it at routes.php file. I remember one part of the tutorial where I changed the something at terminal that it uses .env.testing.php instead of .env.local.php. Do I need to set this?
Level 65
Well you can test it anywhere, just routes.php is easy since it's a place the app will always check.
.env.local.php (testing would mean you need to set your environment to testing).
Level 2
Do you know the command to set the environment to testing? Maybe I need to do that on the server.
Level 65
L4.2 or L5?
L4.2: bootstrap/start.php (I think) L5: bootstrap/environment.php
Set the hostname and name of it (local is easy to stick with). Create or rename your file to .env.local.php and it should return local with this command
» artisan env
Current application environment: local
