Turso Database / libSQL Support

[darkterminal]

Hi @mpociot, How can I support Turso Database / libSQL Support in Laravel Herd?

Turso Client PHP - libSQL for PHP this is new extension that build using Rust.

Laravel is huge community so I create Turso Driver Laravel but it's require the native Turso Client PHP - libSQL for PHP extension to work with.

Hey!
I also checked out the repository but I was unable to find the extension for arm64 / x86 on macOS.
The download only gave me a dylib file, not a so file.

I am still in testing for Laravel Herd, if it's work, what can I do next?

[mpociot]

I would need to know how I can either compile or download pre-compiled extensions, then I can bundle them in Herd.

[darkterminal]

You can download and compiled from source: clone the turso-client-php and run cargo build --release

If you can help to build .so file and .dll files it will really helpful for the community.

And someone said, just rename .dylib to .so file Compile dynamic library crate to .dylib vs .so

I am not using Mac and I am build from Linux (I don't have Mac 🤣).

I can't wait

Figure - Herd php.ini

Warning: PHP Startup: libsql_php unable to initialize module

My big question is why Laravel Herd can't read liblibsql_php.so. But in another side, when I just rename/copy .dylib to .so file it's just work in standalone PHP 8.3 that installed using brew

Figure - Standalone PHP php.ini

When I run command php -m my extension is loaded and work.

I just tried this again with the latest release of the extension and it's working fine for me 🎉

Can we also compile the extension for older PHP versions?

[darkterminal]

I will create build for PHP 8.2 also... Wait for the latest version, I will inform here

[darkterminal]

@mpociot it's done!

[darkterminal]

...It's still a bit rough around the edges...

@mpociot Did you need to tweak something in Laravel Herd?

A fresh Laravel project can't find the driver when using Turso Driver Laravel in Laravel Herd (MacOS)

But when I try in Linux, it's just work. In Windows? I don't have a Windows 😞 .

Dear lovely people involved, I am also eager to start using Turso on my Laravel app, which is served by Herd! Thank you for your work!

[darkterminal]

I haven't been able to try it yet, since I don't use MacOS and Windows is not my priority.

@mpociot I hope this message finds you well! Herd paying customer here! The inability to install Turso dependencies when serving my project through Herd is preventing me to make use of Turso services, which would tremendously enhance the security and stability of my SaaS. I am wondering if this integration is on your roadmap for the near future! Thank you for this great tool that is Herd.
