Firebird database driver for the Laravel Framework

Firebird for Laravel

This package adds support for the Firebird PDO driver in Laravel applications. Support for Laravel 5.5 to 8.x with PHP 7.1+ and Firebird 1.5 or 2.5

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require harrygulliford/laravel-firebird

The package will automatically register itself.

Declare the connection within your config/database.php file, using firebird as the driver:

'connections' => [

    'firebird' => [
        'driver'   => 'firebird',
        'host'     => env('DB_HOST', 'localhost'),
        'database' => env('DB_DATABASE', '/path_to/database.fdb'),
        'username' => env('DB_USERNAME', 'sysdba'),
        'password' => env('DB_PASSWORD', 'masterkey'),
        'charset'  => env('DB_CHARSET', 'UTF8'),
        'version'  => env('DB_VERSION', '2.5'), // Supported versions: 2.5, 1.5
        'role'     => null,
    ],

],

To register this package in Lumen, you'll also need to add the following line to the service providers in your config/app.php file: $app->register(\Firebird\FirebirdServiceProvider::class);

Limitations

This package does not support database migrations and it should not be used for this use case.
