I have problems with Scout and Algolia. Need help.
Hello. I am developing Intranet system on Laravel 5.6. I have installed Scout and Algolia as described in official documentation. Registered account on Algolia and put both Application ID and Admin API Key to scout.php. Scout engine is set to Algolia. But Algolia does not work. Even Batch Import (php artisan scout:import “App\MyModel”) tells that data is imported, but no changes on server affected. While trying to find the reason I discovered, that Scout is using NullEngine. Trying to backup settings I got 'exception: algoliasearch requires an applicationid'. What should I do to fix the problem? Thank you.

I didn't find any help in video. Maybe I need to enable some php extension? While trying to backup settings I got exception that I need curl. I enabled it. After that I receive exception about algoliasearch requires an applicationid. When trying to import data no error is displayed. Everything is OK, he tells. But no data is sync.

@Cronix Yes I have account on Algolia. Every time I try to sync my data I check it in browser. And I put both Application ID and Admin API Key in config/scout.php. I also tried to put Keys in .env file, and in vendor\laravel\scout\config\scout.php. And even directly to __construct function of vendor\algolia\algoliasearch-client-php\src\AlgoliaSearch\Client.php. Still the same result.
When I go step-by-step in scout process I found that NullEngine is involved. If I comment update() function of AlgoliaEngine nothing happens, not the single error.
Level 1
My \vendor\algolia\algoliasearch-client-php\src\AlgoliaSearch\Client.php file does not receive ApplicationId as far as all variables needed to __constract().
Where can be the reason?
Level 1
In Laravel 5.6 Api Keys are stored in config\scout.php. Am I right? They are there.
When I try to var_damp (config('scout.algolia.id')) it returns NULL.
Or should I re-view the video you proposed me? It is old enought, for some older version.
Level 50
yes @demiurgich config('scout.algolia.id') it shouldn't return null
'algolia' => [
'id' => env('ALGOLIA_APP_ID', ''),
'secret' => env('ALGOLIA_SECRET', ''),
],
.env file
ALGOLIA_APP_ID=MGXIQSZE70
ALGOLIA_SECRET=c372f98f94323428b8234ffde38d53624

Here is my config\scout.php:
'algolia' => [
'id' => env('ALGOLIA_APP_ID', '-----------'),
'secret' => env('ALGOLIA_SECRET', '----------------------------lkjhh'),
],
And here is .env
SCOUT_ENGINE=algolia,
ALGOLIA_APP_ID=---------kjbjhbj,
ALGOLIA_SECRET=--------------kjnbiubuyg,
Looks like they are normal.
Level 67
To keep it simple, remove that.
then create /config/algolia.php
return [
'id' => env('ALGOLIA_APP_ID'),
'secret' => env('ALGOLIA_SECRET'),
];
Then to use:
config('algolia.id');
config('algolia.secret');
PS - in your .env, remove the trailing commas. There should be no commas at the end of the lines unless it's actually a part of the value that you are setting the key for.
key=value
key=value
NOT
key=value,
key=value,
PSS - You should remove the actual app key and id from your last few posts, otherwise anyone who is reading this can use them and charge to your account!

@demiurgich yes remove them . my keys are hard coded ;)
Level 1
Those Keys are modificated.
My hugs to you, guys. You are awesome. I am stupid. My problem was in cache. I needed to clear it. All changes I did were helpless because settings saved in cache were unchanged.

@demiurgich I'm happy for you:) Mark please your reply as best :)
