RealTime Chat Application using Laravel 5.5

Learn how to build a real-time chat application using Laravel 5.5. In this series, I am going to use Laravel echo, Pusher js, Vue js and Bulma (optional). In the last video of this series, I am using Loadash for finding whether a user is online or not. So make sure you have not removed Loadash while creating a new project if you are going to do the same way as I did. There is always a GitHub repository for my series and for this series click here to go that page.

 You should refer to Laravel Documentation for better understanding, for more examples and for finding different ways of doing something other than from what I have taught you.

 Refer here for a better understanding of broadcasting and using of channels. Also, you can find the difference between a private channel and a presence channel with few examples.

This series includes following videos

  1. Introduction
  2. Installation
  3. Friends
  4. Chat with Friends
  5. Broadcast
  6. Online Users

Correcting Common Mistakes made by Users

  1. Inside .env file, check whether you have changed BROADCAST_DRIVER=log to BROADCAST_DRIVER=pusher 
  2. Inside app.php file inside the config folder, check whether you have uncommented App\Providers\BroadcastServiceProvider::class,
  3. Don't forget to run php artisan config:cache once you have edited your .env file or made changes to any files inside your config folder.

Let’s begin by generating the required Model and Migration file. php artisan make:model VerifyUser -m The make:model command will create a new Model VerifyUser   in the \App directory and -m  flag will create a new migration file associated with the  VerifyUser  model with the table name verify_users.
