About

With this package you can use Eloquent and QueryBuilder with a Firebird database. 🔥

Compability

Support for Laravel 5.5 to 8.x with PHP 7.1+ and Firebird 1.5, 2.5, 3.0.

Installation

1. Install/enable the Firebird PDO driver for PHP (pdo_firebird);
2. Install the package with composer:

composer require ejetar/laravel-firebird

1. As of Laravel 5.5, it is not necessary to inform service providers in config/app.php. But if you want to inform, enter the file config/app.php and include the class below in the section providers:

Ejetar\LaravelFirebird\FirebirdServiceProvider::class

1. Declare your connection in section connections in file config/database.php, using firebird driver:

'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', //it will be discovered automatically
]

If you do not enter engine_version, it will be discovered automatically.
