in databases config

    'PhysicalExamItem' => [
            'driver' => 'pgsql',
            'host' => env('DB_HOST', 'localhost'),
            'port' => env('DB_PORT', '5432'),

I hope migrate to PhysicalExamItem

[acodercat]

I don't want to use Schema::connection('PhysicalExamItem')

[staudenmeir]

Judging from the description of $connection, this should work.

But after looking at the implementation, I'm not sure this is possible to fix. AFAICS, Schema::create() doesn't know which connection its migration uses.

[X-Coder264]

@acodercat You can change the schema connection by using $schema = Schema::connection('PhysicalExamItem'); and then $schema->create() like usual.

Ah sorry, I just saw that you don't wanna use that. Why not?

I don't want to use Schema::connection('PhysicalExamItem')

I'm not sure what else can be done. If you dont want to use the support functions there's not much else we can do?
