Load Blade assets with https in Laravel

I had a problem with asset function when it’s loaded resources through HTTP protocol when the website was using HTTPS, which is caused the “Mixed content” problem.

To fix that you need to add \URL::forceScheme('https') into your AppServiceProvider file.

So mine looks like this (Laravel 5.4):

<?php

namespace App\Providers;

use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;

class AppServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    /**
     * Bootstrap any application services.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function boot()
    {
        if(config('app.env') === 'production') {
            \URL::forceScheme('https');
        }
    }

    /**
     * Register any application services.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function register()
    {
        //
    }
}

This is helpful when you need https only on server (config('app.env') === 'production') and not locally, so don’t need to force asset function to use https.
