This pull request includes the changes for upgrading to Laravel 9.x. Feel free to commit any additional changes to the shift-101902 branch.

Before merging, you need to:

  • Checkout the shift-101902 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. You may also join the Shifty Coders Slack workspace to level-up your Laravel skills.

Laravel 8 adopts the tuple syntax for controller actions. Since the old options array is incompatible with this syntax, Shift converted them to use modern, fluent methods.
In an effort to make upgrading the constantly changing config files
easier, Shift defaulted them and merged your true customizations -
where ENV variables may not be used.
`<env>` tags have a lower precedence than system environment variables making it easier to overwrite PHPUnit configuration values in additional environments, such a CI.

Review this blog post for more details on configuration precedence when testing Laravel: https://jasonmccreary.me/articles/laravel-testing-configuration-precedence/
From the [PHPUnit 8 release notes][1], the `TestCase` methods below now declare a `void` return type:

- `setUpBeforeClass()`
- `setUp()`
- `assertPreConditions()`
- `assertPostConditions()`
- `tearDown()`
- `tearDownAfterClass()`
- `onNotSuccessfulTest()`

ℹ️ Shift noticed you have additional namespaces in your application. You may use the Consolidate Namespaces Shift to simplify your namespaces into the default Laravel App namespace.

ℹ️ Laravel 9 moved the resources/lang folder to the top level of the project. While Shift moved and replaced references to this folder, you may have additional references to this folder which need to be updated.

⚠️ Laravel 9 transitioned from SwiftMailer to Symfony Mailer. While this transition should be relatively seamless and Shift automates any tedious changes, some changes may not reliably be automated.

Dependencies
Some mail providers may require an additional dependency. For example, if you are using Mailgun, then you will need to install the symfony/mailgun-mailer package:

composer require symfony/mailgun-mailer symfony/http-client

For more details on what has changed you may review the Symfony Mailer section of the Upgrade Guide.

⚠️ The FILESYSTEM_DRIVER environment variable was renamed to FILESYSTEM_DISK in Laravel 9. Shift did not find this variable referenced in your committed files, but you should review any additional environment configuration and rename this variable.

⚠️ Shift upgraded your configuration files by defaulting them and merging your true customizations. These include values which are not changeable through core ENV variables.

You should review this commit for additional customizations or opportunities to use new ENV variables. If you have a lot of customizations, you may undo this commit with git revert 4a519db1 and make the config file changes manually.

ℹ️ The FILESYSTEM_CLOUD environment variable was removed in a later release of Laravel 8. While you may still use the cloud disk, you are encouraged to configure your own disks.

⚠️ The token driver for API authentication is no longer available. This driver was not very robust and was removed from the documentation. Laravel now recommends using Sanctum.

If you were using the token driver, you may re-add it within your auth.php configuration file then migrate to Sanctum at your convenience.

ℹ️ Shift updated your dependencies for Laravel 9. 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 9. Watch dealing with dependencies for tips on handling any Composer issues.

ℹ️ Laravel 9 adopted anonymous migrations. Shift automated this change to align with modern Laravel conventions and avoid naming migrations.

ℹ️ All of the underlying Symfony components used by Laravel have been upgraded to Symfony 6. If you are directly interacting with any Symfony component, you should review the Symfony change log for additional changes.

ℹ️ The HTTP client has been updated to have a default timeout of 30 seconds. Previously there was no default. The underlying request would wait indefinitely. Now an exception is thrown after 30 seconds.

If you find your requests need longer, you may prefix your request to specify a timeout:

Http::timeout(60)->get("https://laravelshift.com");

ℹ️ Laravel 9 now uses Vite to build frontend assets. While you may continue to use Laravel Mix, it is no longer the default. If you wish to modernize your application to use Vite, you may run the Vite Converter for free.
