# Configure environment and secrets for Laravel

Configuration and secrets for a Laravel app on Ample. Verified on Laravel: an --env value delivered encrypted and reported as present without being echoed (secret=set). Build and start: composer install --no-dev from composer.lock, then FrankenPHP serving public/ (php-server with the index.php fallback) reading PORT on the php-8.5 template.

## Prerequisites
- A Laravel project (composer install --no-dev from composer.lock, then FrankenPHP serving public/ (php-server with the index.php fallback) reading PORT on the php-8.5 template)
- An Ample account token with servers:write

## Workload
Configure environment and secrets

## Framework
Laravel

## Tested Configuration
- **Template:** php-8.5
- **Runtime:** php
- **Size:** s-1vcpu-1gb
- **Install:** composer install --no-dev --prefer-dist --no-interaction --no-progress --optimize-autoloader
- **Start:** frankenphp php-server --listen :$PORT --root public

## Workflow Steps
1. **Build and start**  
   composer install --no-dev from composer.lock, then FrankenPHP serving public/ (php-server with the index.php fallback) reading PORT on the php-8.5 template; the server must bind 0.0.0.0 on PORT.
2. **Pass values on deploy**  
   Use --env KEY=value (repeatable) or --env-file; values are encrypted at rest and reused on redeploys. Declare names only in ample.toml.  
   **Command:** ample deploy . --name  --public --env MY_SECRET=...
3. **Verify**  
   Fetch the live URL and /p/configuration-secrets on the example; on failure read the build and runtime logs.  
   **Command:** ample logs  --kind build

## Examples
- **Laravel pattern fixture**: Verified configuration and secrets on Laravel.  
   Source Reference: tests/deploy-canaries/laravel-patterns

## Success Checks
- **App responds on its public URL**  
   **Kind:** http_get  
   **Path:** /  
   **Expect:** ample canary laravel patterns
- **Configuration-secrets check from the example**  
   **Kind:** http_get  
   **Path:** /p/configuration-secrets  
   **Expect:** see the pattern fixture checks

## Limitations
- Verified on the php-8.5 template at s-1vcpu-1gb; other sizes and Laravel major versions are not verified.
- Region, compliance attestations and request-duration limits are unknown and not claimed.

- **Monthly Amount:** 5.0
- **Authoritative:** true
