Perch Runway and Laravel Valet Setup (Nginx)

Seems I was mistaken - apparently this is just for Perch not Perch Runway? See here: https://github.com/andocobo/perch-valet-driver/issues/2

So for Runway what would the correct config details be? I'm making wild guesses as what I should be doing in the local driver set up that can be placed in the root...

This seems to load up the page but not load in my assets and not allow me to get access to the admin... throws up the following warnings too...

Warning: include(/assets/img/icons/icon-sprite.svg): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /Users/danlee/Sites/Work/armstrong/login/templates/layouts/global/header.php on line 44

Local Driver placed in Root

<?php
class LocalValetDriver extends LaravelValetDriver
{
    /**
     * Determine if the driver serves the request.
     *
     * @param  string  $sitePath
     * @param  string  $siteName
     * @param  string  $uri
     * @return bool
     */
     public function serves($sitePath, $siteName, $uri)
     {
         return is_dir($sitePath.'/');
     }

    /**
     * Determine if the incoming request is for a static file.
     *
     * @param  string  $sitePath
     * @param  string  $siteName
     * @param  string  $uri
     * @return string|false
     */
    public function isStaticFile($sitePath, $siteName, $uri)
    {
        if (file_exists($staticFilePath = $sitePath.'/assets/'.$uri)) {
            return $staticFilePath;
        }

        return false;
    }


    /**
     * Get the fully resolved path to the application's front controller.
     *
     * @param  string  $sitePath
     * @param  string  $siteName
     * @param  string  $uri
     * @return string
     */
    public function frontControllerPath($sitePath, $siteName, $uri)
    {
        return $sitePath.'/login/core/runway/start.php';
    }
}

The example they give is /public/ so I assumed this needed to be /assets/ which lives in the root of my site and contains all the css, js, and images for templates.

If still of interest, this works well for me atleast.

<?php class LocalValetDriver extends LaravelValetDriver
{
/**
* Determine if the driver serves the request.
*
* @param string $sitePath
* @param string $siteName
* @param string $uri
* @return bool
*/
public function serves($sitePath, $siteName, $uri)
{
    if (strpos($uri, 'perch') == false) {
        return is_dir($sitePath.'/');
    }
}

/**
* Determine if the incoming request is for a static file.
*
* @param string $sitePath
* @param string $siteName
* @param string $uri
* @return string|false
*/
public function isStaticFile($sitePath, $siteName, $uri)
{
if (file_exists($staticFilePath = $sitePath.$uri)) {
    return $staticFilePath;
}

return false;
}


/**
* Get the fully resolved path to the application's front controller.
*
* @param string $sitePath
* @param string $siteName
* @param string $uri
* @return string
*/
public function frontControllerPath($sitePath, $siteName, $uri)
{
    return $sitePath.'/perch/core/runway/start.php';
}
}

Okay I thought Eddie's solution worked, but it turns out it doesn't. I'd love it if this could work Perch is the only reason I have mamp running on my machine.

Drew, if it helps, a list of other drivers is available at https://github.com/laravel/valet/tree/master/cli/drivers

What problems are you experiencing, Phil? I don't have any issues, and run multiple runway-projects locally with this setup.

Non-runway projects would of course be different, but I don't believe you would need any drivers for that?

A few issues....

1) Perch doesn't like a blank db password which is how Valet work out of the box, so the initial install doesn't complete until you delete $db_password from the config file and re-do the install process.

2) When setup is complete a couple of paths are incorrectly defined:

• in config.php the login path is stored as: define('PERCH_LOGINPATH', '/admin/setup/account/');

• In config.mylocal_url.php the sitepath is stored as: define('PERCH_SITEPATH', '/Users/philsmith/code/goldenballs/admin/setup/account');

Thus all requests for assets get a 404 response. If I manually change them, stuff seems to work.

3) The front end doesn't work. I get lots of errors like: Notice: Use of undefined constant PERCH_DB_PREFIX - assumed 'PERCH_DB_PREFIX' in myperchdirectory/core/runway/lib/PerchRouter.class.php on line 57

This is because the switch statement in config.php doesn't work because Valet doesn't set the server name

To fix this I amended the last bit of your config to read:

public function frontControllerPath($sitePath, $siteName, $uri)
{
    $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
    return $sitePath.'/admin/core/runway/start.php';
}

Hey all,

I mentioned in the Perchology Slack chat about looking to upgrade from MAMP Pro, as it'd become quite slow and just a pain to work with. So, I created two drivers for both Perch and Runway, and added both to Github, if anyone's interested. They work locally with me, but if anyone finds any issues, feel free to add an issue.

Hi Ryan, Thanks for this, yeah I've just looked at the setup script and it refernece PHP_SELF so this looks like it should help. Thanks!
