Using different config for seeds in Laravel

Question

When I seed my database, I would like to use the null BROADCAST_DRIVER. I tried setting the config var config('broadcasting.default', null); in DatabaseSeeder.php. However, the seeders are still using the driver defined in .env.

How do I use a different BROADCAST_DRIVER for my seeds?

Answer 1

You're using the wrong syntax. Set it with:

config(['broadcasting.default' => 'null'])
