It would be a good idea to add a Forge installation guide with SSL to make this a more practical real world solution.

Local set up is fine, but users need to see how to set these things up in the wild as well.

Thanks as always for your hard work.

Either run as http or if you are already running as http, run valet secure site_name

In valet you can set up a proxy that will map a secure domain to a specific local port.

Let's say your Laravel site domain is example.test, you can create a proxy like so:

1valet proxy socket.example http://127.0.0.1:6001 --secure

Then you should be able to change your PUSHER_HOST setting to https://socket.example.test

You may need to play around with the env, broadcast.config, and echo settings to get it working perfectly.

{"event":"pusher:error","data":{"code":4001,"message":"App key local does not exist."}}

Yes, now it works. I have had few challenges with it, but it works now. Soketi is better than laravel websockets package.
