#Set up a connection to ArangoDB

1. Add a new database connection to config/database.php

        'arangodb' => [
            'name'       => 'arangodb',
            'driver'     => 'arangodb',
            'endpoint'   => env('DB_ENDPOINT', 'http://localhost:8529'),
            'database' => env('DB_DATABASE'),
            'username' => env('DB_USERNAME'),
            'password' => env('DB_PASSWORD')
        ],

Provide an array of endpoints to handle failover if you have a replication set up.

2. Set your default connection DB_CONNECTION=arangodb in your .env file.

Connect to docker

To connect to the default ArangoDB docker image you need to set your DB_ENDPOINT to 'tcp://arangodb:8529'.
