Run laravel project locally

##Windows users:

cmder will be refered as console

##Mac Os, Ubuntu and windows users continue here:

  • Create a database locally named homestead utf8_general_ci
  • Download composer https://getcomposer.org/download/
  • Pull Laravel/php project from git provider.
  • Rename .env.example file to .envinside your project root and fill the database information. (windows wont let you do it, so you have to open your console cd your project root directory and run mv .env.example .env )
  • Open the console and cd your project root directory
  • Run composer install or php composer.phar install
  • Run php artisan key:generate
  • Run php artisan migrate
  • Run php artisan db:seed to run seeders, if any.
  • Run php artisan serve

#####You can now access your project at localhost:8000 :)

If for some reason your project stop working do these:

  • composer install
  • php artisan migrate

Thank you. Also if you guys have images in the public folder, and your image functionality is not working, do not forget to use the artisan command storage:link for it to work again.

Great, it still works, although I had to upgrade my laravel installation and other dependencies first.

@rajucs
You need to use a PHP version like 7.1 or more.

If you are using Windows, download composer and select the php version that you need. After that, restart Windows.

Some one can help.

If this is a new installation, you need to run composer install

If it's an existing installation (vendor folder exists) run composer update

Just use another directory and use any terminal to. Laravel can be installed into any directory after you create it, using the command below.

Download composer using this link: https://getcomposer.org/Composer-Setup.exe

It will install the composer for global usage. Then use command prompt or cmd.exe to execute below commands

composer create-project laravel/laravel projectname

It will install dependencies and you'd be able to run the server by going to the root directory of this project.

cd root directory which you just created

php artisan serv
