• schema prefix support in published config

Requirements

• PHP 8.0+

Laravel package discovery will register these service providers automatically:

• Duorenwei\LaravelDm8\Dm8\Dm8ServiceProvider
• Duorenwei\LaravelDm8\Dm8\Dm8ValidationServiceProvider

Local Path Development

When this package is developed inside another project repository, it can be consumed through a Composer path repository:

{
  "repositories": [
    {
      "type": "path",
      "url": "packages/duorenwei/laravel-dm8",
      "options": {
        "symlink": false

  ]
}
