-
Install Laravel 8, If you are installing Chatter in an existing project skip this step.
-
Include the package in your project and publish the package views, configs, etc:
-
Run the

command and follow the instructions:If you are installing Chatter in an existing project, include the --plugin option when you call the install command:
The installation command will take care of all that you need to install the forum: migrations, js components, tailwind, composer packages, node packages, etc.
The app must be connected to a running mysql instance to run the migrations, on a development environment Laravel Sail can be run
-
Add the CanDiscuss and HasApiTokens trait to your User model. If you have Laravel Passport already installed on your project you probably already have the HasApiTokens trait in your User model:
- Chatter installation command already installs Laravel Passport but you need to add the CreateFreshApiToken middleware to your
web
middleware group in your app/Http/Kernel.php file:
If you are installing Chatter on a fresh Laravel instalation, go straight to step 9
- Make sure you have Tailwind CSS configured with Laravel Mix
-
Include the Chatter JS app into your resources/js/app.js:
-
Populate the categories of your forum. You can create a new seed for your project.
