Automatic insertion of settings required for front-end integration

[seito-developer]

Dear Laravel Breeze Team,

Hi, let me send my PR here.

What I did

Fixed to automatically append the code needed for API integration with the frontend.
When the command php artisan breeze:install is executed, 'frontend_url' => env('FRONTEND_URL ', 'http://localhost:3000 '), is appended to the end of config/app.php.

Benefit for developers

In the current version, FRONTEND_URL is appended to the .env file when the php artisan breeze:install command is executed, but the code to read it 'frontend_url' => env('FRONTEND_URL ', 'http://localhost:3000'), must be added manually to config/app.php.
This is not clearly stated in the tutorial in the official documentation (https://laravel.com/docs/11.x/starter-kits) and is kind for developers.

This fix solves them automatically, so developers can implement user and email authentication without hesitation.

Best regards,
Seito Hriguchi

It already exists in the base framework app config?

Hi,
Is the base framework app config you mean is this one?
https://github.com/laravel/laravel

I couldn't find that code in config/app/.php.

framework app config is this:
https://github.com/laravel/framework/blob/0e9053da9d709c544200260cc0be5e223ea8ff93/config/app.php#L60

If your laravel app cannot find 'frontend_url' => env('FRONTEND_URL ', 'http://localhost:3000') in condig/app.php then it will look for vendor/laravel/framework/config/app.php.

So you don't need to add 'frontend_url' => env('FRONTEND_URL ', 'http://localhost:3000') to condig/app.php.

You can actually test this. Just create new laravel app without breeze.

laravel new testproj
cd testproj
php artisan tinker

> config('app.frontend_url')

Then it outputs

= "http://localhost:3000"

Thank you, I got it.
But the official Web page says that we can start to command composer create-project laravel/laravel example-app.
Should it be fixed to composer create-project laravel/framework example-app ?

I use laravel installer (less typing).

If you look official documents throughly it also mention laravel installer

Or, you may create new Laravel projects by globally installing the Laravel installer via Composer:

composer global require laravel/installer
 
laravel new example-app

There is no problem if you create a project by composer create-project laravel/laravel, because laravel/framework will be installed automatically when the command is executed.
Therefore, I think there is no need to fix the documentation.👍

Test these commands.

composer create-project laravel/laravel example-app
cd example-app
php artisan tinker
> config('app.frontend_url')

Output:

= "http://localhost:3000"

Thank you!
I understand that Laravel loads ./config/app.php and also loads config/app.php in vendor/ to compensate for the lack of settings after that.
