Go to .env file and change Broadcast drive to pusher

BROADCAST_DRIVER=pusher

and also give credentials of your pusher on .env file

PUSHER_APP_ID=xxxxxx
PUSHER_APP_KEY=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
PUSHER_APP_SECRET=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
PUSHER_APP_CLUSTER=xxx

open bootstrap.js file and provide pusher key there also.

window.Echo = new Echo({
    broadcaster: 'pusher',
    key: "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
    cluster: "xxx",
    encrypted: true,
    ...

As this project uses queue so we need to settings related to that also.

Now make changes for queue driver on .env file

QUEUE_DRIVER=database

Generate jobs table and migrate it

php artisan queue:table
php artisan migrate

Now we have jobs table, and to make system real time, we need to dispatch queued events.

So lets start queue worker for that.

php artisan queue:work

keep this running.
