Dusk: Cannot update dusk w/ new chromedriver in Laravel 5.4 app

Created on 16 Mar 2018 · 7Comments · Source: laravel/dusk

I realize we're behind on Laravel 5.4, but we cannot update laravel/dusk in our app any more without illuminate/console constraint error. I -think- we just need updated chromedriver, nothing new in the code itself?

I've heard talks of an artisan command to update dusk's chromedriver, regardless of laravel version or dusk version. Thoughts?

PS. Not complaining. Maybe this will push us to finally upgrade to 5.6 🙈

I created an Artisan command for updating the ChromeDriver binaries on all Dusk versions: https://github.com/staudenmeir/dusk-updater

You can download the latest ChromeDriver here:
https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html?path=2.36/

The files are located here: vendor/laravel/dusk/bin

I've done that already, but should users have to manually mess with vendor files?

Only if they use unsupported Laravel versions ;-) Does it work?

Heya, really sorry about this but unfortunately we cannot provide support for Laravel 5.4 anymore. Please try upgrading or the solution proposed by @staudenmeir.
