Laravel force https for Heroku

.htaccess

#add this on public/.htaccess for Laravel
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https 
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

Procfile

web: vendor/bin/heroku-php-apache2 public/

Thanks.

+1 this is in line with the official docs which point to this SO

Emphasis:
.htaccess => public/.htaccess

Also you can add RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !=localhost so that this doesn't apply to localhost dev :).

It's work to redirect and good at local, but when i deploy to heroku always force to index.php i'm not recomended to use it, have an idea ? @danielrob

@ilhamsj did you add the Procfile on your app directory?

@brickgale yes i added

This was ages ago, but https://laravel.com/docs/5.8/requests#configuring-trusted-proxies (protected $proxies = '*';) was the breakthrough I remember when I was working in this area. Perhaps I used this to force https, but let the trusted proxies declaration sort out the problems with heroku request forwarding.

thanks i get the solution https://gist.github.com/ilhamsj/819369a56bb983eac018c5f4e04cda50

Nice one!

ahh, okay. i was working with lower version of laravel (5.1-5.3) when i made this. Good catch! It was just a middleware problem. Thanks @danielrob!

This is gold. Thanks @brickgale. You saved my weekend!
