Error could not find driver

[gbast0s]

So I have run this command composer require io238/laravel-iso-countries and after that I just tried to call

Country::find("pt"), and I got could not find driver (Connection: iso-countries, SQL: select * from \"countries\")

I have a connection to MySQL database on .env, Am I missing something?

Also when I publish the config and I do not change anything and I try to run the command php artisan db:seed countries:build I got

php artisan db:seed countries:build

   INFO  Seeding database.

So I found it was a missing PHP extension

extension=pdo_sqlite

[io238]

Thanks for reporting this. I think it will make sense to show better error reporting, if Sqlite is not installed/enabled.

I just want to come back on this, but for this part :

"Also when I publish the config and I do not change anything and I try to run the command php artisan db:seed countries:build I got"

That error is not related to a missing extension ( Target class [Database\Seeders\countries:build] does not exist. ), but to the fact that the command in README is not valid :

Artisan just thinks countries:build is the seeder, instead of correctly running this as a second command !

Doing php artisan db:seed && php artisan countries:build would solve the

@io238 could you change the README please 🥺
