Error on php artisan:optimize
I get the following error when running php artisan:optimize in production.
TypeError: Livewire\Volt\FragmentAlias::encode(): Argument #2 ($path) must be of type string, null given, called in /home/deployer/claimzap.app/releases/3/vendor/livewire/volt/src/Precompilers/ExtractFragments.php on line 96
Anyone else experiencing this?
Hi there,
I've not seen this before. The only reference that I can find after a quick Google search is this thread here:
Are you using the spatie/laravel-csp package?
After more searching I found this thread: https://github.com/livewire/volt/issues/118#issuecomment-2405898921
The user said he solved it when he says "issue was caused by other package during updates when variable was not used in template: imanghafoori1/laravel-microscope"
On that page it links to using the php artisan check:views command in Laravel microscope. When I run that command I get:
Checking views...

Do you think this could be causing the problem? These missing blade templates?
Hey!
I think that those controllers can just be deleted, they are not used in Wave v3.
I've prepared a PR for that:
https://github.com/thedevdojo/wave/pull/237
But you can just delete them locally.
On a fresh new Wave install the optimize command works and those controllers are present so it is likely that this is not the issue but maybe some of the packages that you've installed.
When I try to run it locally I get a little more info on the error:

What could be going on with the media.blade.php that could cause this? I have not edited it.
Hey!
The media file is there on a default install and it does not cause issues so sounds like it might be something else. You could try temporary removing that media file and testing again to see if it is indeed the issue.
One thing that you could also check is the Livewire, and Volt versions are compatible. This might be fixed in newer versions of Volt or maybe a bug in newer versions:
composer show livewire/livewire
composer show livewire/volt
Run those and share the output so I can compare them with mine and see if this is the case!

Ugh what the heck. Maybe another package I have is causing an issue. Here is my entire composer file, can you try these additional packages?
