I have provisioned Heroku Postgres Hobby Dev as database on heroku dashboard and have DATABASE_URL set on my config. In my laravel database.php file i have this on top of the file;

$host = env('DB_HOST', '127.0.0.1');
$database = env('DB_DATABASE', '');
$username = env('DB_USERNAME', 'forge');
$password = env('DB_PASSWORD', 'forge');

if($databaseUrl = getenv('DATABASE_URL')) {
    $url = parse_url($databaseUrl);

    $host = $url['host'];
    $username = $url['user'];
    $password = $url['pass'];
    $database = ltrim($url['path'], '/');
}

And my default database connection set as:

'default' => 'pgsql'

Then in my connections array:

'pgsql' => [
    'driver' => 'pgsql',
    'url' => $url,
    'host' => $host,
    'database' => $database,
    'username' => $username,
    'password' => $password,
    'charset' => 'utf8',
    'prefix' => '',
    'prefix_indexes' => true,
    'schema' => 'public',
    'sslmode' => 'prefer',
    'port' => env('DB_PORT', '5432'),
],

I have tried googling for a solution but no luck. What do i need to do to fix this please?

$url is an array; parse_url is returning an associative array. The url key in the configuration should be a string representing a URL, not an array. You are assigning 'url' => $url,, so 'url' is an array, not a string.

If you want to use the url you only need to set that key, it will parse the rest of the information from that URL you are given for you.

"Some managed database providers such as Heroku provide a single database "URL" that contains all of the connection information for the database in a single string."

"For convenience, Laravel supports these URLs as an alternative to configuring your database with multiple configuration options. If the url (or corresponding DATABASE_URL environment variable) configuration option is present, it will be used to extract the database connection and credential information."
