Problem
You want to use SQLite as your database.
You know SQLite is a "server-less" database and don't want to bother with setting up a database server.
Solution
Edit the app/config/database.php configuration.
<?php
return array(
'default' => 'sqlite',
'connections' => array(
'sqlite' => array(
'driver' => 'sqlite',
'database' => __DIR__.'/../database/production.sqlite',
'prefix' => '',
),
),
);
?>
Discussion
You must have the PHP Driver installed. See Installing SQLite for setting up the PHP driver.
In the above configuration example, line #7 points to your database. You may want to change this to your app/storage directory.
'database' => storage_path('production.sqlite'),
Or even create a folder within the storage directory.
$ mkdir app/storage/databases
Be sure to update your configuration to the new location.
'database' => storage_path('databases/production.sqlite'),
