could not find driver for postgresql database in lumen 5.6

Question

I am getting could not find driver for postgre database in lumen 5.6. But when I try this in my core php it's working.

And this is my .env configuration data for postgre database:-

  DB_CONNECTION=pgsql
  DB_HOST=localhost
  DB_PORT=5432
  DB_DATABASE=test
  DB_USERNAME=xxxx
  DB_PASSWORD=xxxxxx

And this is my bootstrap.php

    <?php

    require_once __DIR__.'/../vendor/autoload.php';

    try {
        (new Dotenv\Dotenv(__DIR__.'/../'))->load();
    } catch (Dotenv\Exception\InvalidPathException $e) {
        //
    }

    $app = new Laravel\Lumen\Application(
        realpath(__DIR__.'/../')
    );


    $app->singleton(
        Illuminate\Contracts\Debug\ExceptionHandler::class,
        App\Exceptions\Handler::class
    );

    $app->singleton(
        Illuminate\Contracts\Console\Kernel::class,
        App\Console\Kernel::class
    );

    $app->router->group([
        'namespace' => 'App\Http\Controllers',
    ], function ($router) {
        require __DIR__.'/../routes/web.php';
    });

    return $app;

I have used the same configuration tried in the laravel 5.6 and it works there.

ya because laravel has configuration files in which driver configurations are declared but in lumen you need to enable it first. — Parth Pandya, May 17 '18 at 10:44
@parthu_panther i am new to both laravel and lumen. So can i tell me or give some link about how to enable driver configurations? — Sivabalan, May 17 '18 at 10:48
change `DB_HOST=localhost` to `DB_HOST=127.0.0.1` and see if it connects or not. — Parth Pandya, May 17 '18 at 11:00
I suggest first of all you go through the [laravel](https://laravel.com/docs/5.6) documentation. After that a quick go through [lumen](https://lumen.laravel.com/docs/5.6) documentation as most of lumen things comes from laravel. Afterwards have a look at [this](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37215265/lumen-create-database-connection-at-runtime) answer. — Parth Pandya, May 17 '18 at 11:07
have you tried the answer linked in previous comment? if so and still the error remains same than lets hope some expert answers it. wait for 2 days and if still the problem persists than do apply a bounty to attract expert users. — Parth Pandya, May 17 '18 at 11:34
