HI!
I have a test database that I want to use with codeception and I need to run the migrations for it. I've created a .env.testing file and set up the configuration and then tried running:
php artisan migrate --env=testing
But it still seems to use the normal .env configuration instead of my test config, any ideas where I might be going wrong?
Thanks!
Hi @jackpopp - I'm having the same issue.
I'm not certain why the env is ignored, but it looks as though it's expected behaviour... https://github.com/laravel/framework/issues/8844
@mabasic came up with a workaround... https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/general-discussion/how-to-migrate-a-testing-database-in-laravel-5
I'll post back if I can find an answer!
Hey, thanks thats a nice little work around. I'm glad it wasn't just me doing something wrong!
