This pull request includes the changes for upgrading to Laravel 6.x. Feel free to commit any additional changes to the shift-108428 branch.

Before merging, you need to:

  • Checkout the shift-108428 branch
  • Review all pull request comments for additional changes
  • Run composer update (if the scripts fail, add --no-scripts)
  • Clear any config, route, or view cache
  • Thoroughly test your application (no tests?, no CI?)

If you need help with your upgrade, check out the Human Shifts.

Shift automatically applies the Laravel coding style - which uses the PSR-12 coding style as a base with some minor additions.

You may customize the code style applied by configuring [Pint](https://laravel.com/docs/pint), [PHP CS Fixer](https://github.com/FriendsOfPHP/PHP-CS-Fixer), or [PHP CodeSniffer](https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer) for your project root.

For more information on customizing the code style applied by Shift, [watch this short video](https://laravelshift.com/videos/shift-code-style).
PHP 5.5.9 adds the new static `class` property which provides the fully qualified class name. This is preferred over using strings for class names since the `class` property references are checked by PHP.
Laravel recommends using the `Str` and `Arr` class methods directly instead of the respective helper functions. These helper functions are deprecated in Laravel 5.8 and removed in Laravel 6.

❌ Shift could not upgrade the following files since they differed from the default Laravel version. You will need to compare these files against the default Laravel 6 versions and merge any changes:

  • app/Http/Controllers/Auth/ForgotPasswordController.php
  • app/Http/Controllers/Auth/ResetPasswordController.php
  • app/Http/Kernel.php

⚠️ Laravel 6.x consolidated references to /home as a constant within the RouteServiceProvider. This makes it easier to maintain and change in a single place.

Shift automated this change, but could not upgrade the following files since they differed from the default Laravel version. You should compare these files against the default Laravel 6 versions and merge this change:

  • app/Http/Controllers/Auth/LoginController.php
  • app/Http/Controllers/Auth/RegisterController.php
  • app/Http/Middleware/RedirectIfAuthenticated.php

ℹ️ Laravel 6 changed the default Redis client from predis to phpredis. You may keep using predis by setting REDIS_CLIENT=predis for your environment.

ℹ️ Shift updated your dependencies for Laravel 6. While many of the popular packages are reviewed, you may have to update additional packages in order for your application to be compatible with Laravel 6. Watch dealing with dependencies for tips on handling any Composer issues.

The following dependencies were updated by a major version and may have their own changes. You may check their changelog for any additional upgrade steps.

ℹ️ Laravel 6 now requires Carbon 2. While Shift reviewed your application for common breaking changes, you may want to review the Carbon 2 migration notes for additional changes.

⚠️ The elixir helper was deprecated in Laravel 6.0 and removed in Laravel 8.0. You are encouraged to upgrade to Laravel Mix or another build tool.

Shift found potential uses of the elixir helper in the following files:

  • ./vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Foundation/helpers.php

ℹ️ Laravel 6 made performance optimizations for integer key types. If you are using a string as your model's primary key, you may set the $keyType property on your model.

/**
 * The "type" of the primary key ID.
 *
 * @var string
 */
protected $keyType = 'string';

ℹ️ The mandrill and sparkpost mail drivers, as well as the rackspace storage driver were removed in Laravel 6. If you were using these drivers, you may adopt a community maintained package which provides the driver.

ℹ️ Previous versions of Laravel would retry jobs indefinitely. Beginning with Laravel 6, the php artisan queue:work now tries a job one time by default. If you want to force jobs to be tried indefinitely, you may pass the --tries=0 option.

⚠️ Laravel 6.x has reached end of life. It no longer receives bug fixes or security updates. Shift recommends continuing to upgrade to the latest version (Laravel 10.x).

For tips on running multiple Shifts effectively, watch upgrading old Laravel applications.
