For Sqlite, foreign key constraints need to be explicitly enabled for every database connection. So enabling them in the migrations (as suggestednby the documentation) does not work.
This PR enables the contraints for every connection to an sqlite database that has the config option
foreign_key_constraints
set totrue
.If the option is not set, nothing changes, so no breaking change is introduced.
As foreign key constraints are the default behavior for all other databases I suggest switching this around for the next release and enable foreign keys unless this is set to
false
.If this is accepted I'll submit two more PRs for documentation and laravel/laravel.
