Introduction
------------

[](#introduction)

Valet+ is a development environment for macOS. No Vagrant, no Docker, no `/etc/hosts` file. This project uses [laravel/valet](https://github.com/laravel/valet) as a dependency.

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

[](#installation)

> ⚠️ Valet+ requires macOS and [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/). Before installation, you should make sure that no other programs such as Apache or Nginx are binding to your local machine's port 80.

> ⚠️ Valet+ requires [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) to be installed.

To get started, you first need to ensure that Homebrew is up-to-date using the update command:

```
brew update
```

Next, you should use Homebrew to install PHP 8.1 (using `shivammathur/php`):

```
brew tap shivammathur/php
brew install shivammathur/php/php@8.1
brew link php@8.1 --force
brew services restart php@8.1
```

Make sure your sure the `$HOME/.composer/vendor/bin` directory is in your system's "PATH".

Install Valet+ 3.x with composer:

```
composer global require weprovide/valet-plus
```

Finally, you may execute the Valet+ `install` command. This will install and configure Valet+, Nginx, DnsMasq and other services. In addition, use `--help` to see all installation options.

```
valet-plus install
```

The daemons Valet+ depends on will be configured to launch when your system starts. Once Valet+ is installed, try pinging any `*.test` domain on your terminal using a command such as `ping foobar.test`. If Valet+ is installed correctly you should see this domain responding on `127.0.0.1`.

Valet+ features
---------------

[](#valet-features)

Here are a few key differences compared to the original Valet:

- Nginx config optimization
- PHP extensions (mcrypt, intl, opcache, yaml, apcu, ds, imagick)
- MySQL (mysql@5.7, mysql@8.0, mysql@8.1, mariadb)
    - DB commands (list, create, drop, reset, (re)import, export, open)
- Mailhog (on/off mode)
- Varnish (on/off mode)
- Redis (on/off mode)
- Rabbitmq (on/off mode)
- Xdebug (on/off mode)
- Memcache (on/off mode)
- Elasticsearch v6, v7, v8 (on/off mode) using Docker
- Opensearch v2 (on/off mode) using Docker
- Ioncube
- Rewrite/unrewrite public domain to local environment
- DevTools
- Binaries (magerun, magerun2, drush, wp-cli, shopware-cli)

### Changes vs Valet+ 2

[](#changes-vs-valet-2)

- Use command `valet-plus` instead of `valet`.
- Rename `.env.valet` to `.valet-env.php`.
- Use command `valet-plus elasticsearch|es use ` instead of `valet-plus use elasticsearch|es `.
- Use `127.0.0.1` as Redis host instead of `/tmp/redis.sock`.
- Choose which binaries to install (default all) and self-update on `valet-plus install` command.
- Adds dependency on Docker for Elasticsearch, see
