I wanted to add some pusher stuff on my app with laravel broadcasting however using broadcast() or event() helpers doesn't do anything and I have no errors.

Added my pusher info to env, changed broadcasting driver from log to pusher and neither worked. Created test event with channel name 'my-channel' and event name 'my-event'. Some dummy data in event and tried to call broadcast/event helpers with that event.

Also started PHP artisan queue:work --tries=3

And added composer require pusher/pusher-php-server

Nothing works, not even calling event(new TestEvent()) from tinker.

Only thing that works is using Pusher class directly:

$P = NEW Pusher\Pusher('KEY','SECRET','ID', ['cluster' => 'eu']); 

$P->trigger('my-channel', 'my-event', ['message' => 'test']);

'us']);
$P->trigger('my-channel', 'my-event', ['message' => 'hello world']);
