================

[](#laravel-firebird)

To use this package:

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install the Firebird PDO driver for PHP.

Mariuz's Blog has a very good step by step on this:

Install using composer:

```
composer require rsfera/laravel-firebird

```

Update the `app/config/app.php`, add the service provider:

```
'Firebird\FirebirdServiceProvider'.

```

For Laravel 6.0 and later:

```
Firebird\FirebirdServiceProvider::class,

```

You can remove the original DatabaseServiceProvider, as the original connection factory has also been extended.

Declare your connection in the database config, using 'firebird' as the connecion type. Other keys that are needed:

```
'firebird' => [
    'driver'   => 'firebird',
    'host'     => env('DB_HOST', 'localhost'),
    'database' => env('DB_DATABASE','/storage/firebird/APPLICATION.FDB'),
    'username' => env('DB_USERNAME', 'sysdba'),
    'password' => env('DB_PASSWORD', 'masterkey'),
    'charset'  => env('DB_CHARSET', 'UTF8'),
    'role'     => 'RDB$ADMIN',
    'engine_version' => '3.0.4',
],

```

And add to your .env

```
DB_CHARSET=UTF8

```

If necessary, change the UTF8 to any other charset

This package is a branch jacquestvanzuydam/laravel-firebird package and extends its functionality. Tested on Laravel-6.0.
