php artisan world:install is failing silently

[vishalmandora]

Bug Report

Describe the Bug

The php artisan world:install command is not working, even though no errors are shown. It seems like the seeder is failing silently.

Steps to Reproduce

Environment

• Herd: 1.15.0 (MacOS)
• PHP: 8.4
• Laravel: 11.9
• Package Installation: composer require nnjeim/world

Reproduction Steps

1. Run the following command:

   php artisan world:install

   • Expected: The tables should be populated with data.
   • Actual: No data is inserted, and no error messages are displayed.

Alternative Steps

Instead of php artisan world:install, I also tried manually running the following:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=world
php artisan migrate
php artisan db:seed --class=WorldSeeder

But the seeder still does not populate the tables.

Expected Behavior

If the seeder runs successfully, the relevant database tables should contain the expected data.

Additional Context

This was working fine when I initially installed the package a few months ago. However, after running composer update to upgrade all dependencies to their latest versions, the issue started occurring.

Any guidance on how to resolve this would be appreciated.

[vishalmandora]

The rest of my application relies heavily on this package. @nnjeim, I’d really appreciate your help in resolving this as soon as possible, as I need to deploy the application to the server once the issue is fixed.

@vishalmandora please try
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=world --force

let me know if this works

@nnjeim I'm using

Composer version 2.8.5

PHP version 8.3.17

• As I mentioned earlier, everything was working perfectly without any issues. However, after running composer update I’m encountering an issue with this package which is preventing me from deploying the application to production.

@nnjeim Any updates on this?
