Class "Redis" Not Found laravel 8, using phpredis

I am using laravel 8, and it is throwing error, when ever I tried to run:

php artsian config:clear

On laravel, this is my config value (because I am trying to use phpredis):

'client' => env('REDIS_CLIENT', 'phpredis'),

I could use redis-cli and ping at the moment. Not, just that I could hit the following endpoint successfully.

    public function testRedis()
    {
        Redis::set('ping','pong');
        $ping = Redis::get('ping');
        dd($ping);
    }

It prints out pong successfully.

but I am receiving class Redis not found. Whenever I tried to run, php artisan config:clear

Full error looks like this:

  Class "Redis" not found

      Illuminate\Support\Facades\Facade::__callStatic()

  12  app/Providers/AppServiceProvider.php:37
      App\Models\Setting::getCachedValue()

and my App\Models\Setting looks like:

<?php

namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Cache;

class Setting extends Model
{
    use HasFactory;
    
    protected $table = 'settings';
    protected $guarded = ['id'];
    protected $dates = ['created_at','updated_at'];

    /**
     * The attributes that should be cast to native types.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $casts = [
        'created_at' => 'datetime:Y-m-d', // Change your format
        'updated_at' => 'datetime:Y-m-d',
    ];

    const STRIPE_ENVIRONMENT = ['test', 'live'];

    public static function getCachedValue(){
        return Cache::rememberForever('settings', function () {
            return Setting::pluck('key_value', 'key_name');
        });
    }

    public static function updateCachedSettingsData(){
        Cache::forget('settings');
        self::getCachedValue();
    }
}

What, I might be doing wrong here. #PS: This line on my config/app is commented.

// 'Redis' => Illuminate\Support\Facades\Redis::class,

you must specify "REDIS CLIENT" in your .env file after installation

npm install predis/predis

in your .env file add this lines

REDIS_HOST=127.0.0.1
REDIS_PASSWORD=null
REDIS_PORT=6379
REDIS_CLIENT=predis

I had the same issue, and I was able to resolve it by installing Redis and Redis Server. Follow these steps:

Install Redis for PHP:

sudo apt-get install php8.3-redis

Check your PHP version using php -v and substitute 8.3 with your actual PHP version.

Install Redis Server:

sudo apt install redis-server

add this to app.php file

  'aliases' => Facade::defaultAliases()->merge([
        'Redis' => Illuminate\Support\Facades\Redis::class,
    ])->toArray(),

Okay, I found the issue, there was updated pushed to ubuntu, and with this update looks like default php was updated to php8.0, previously it was 7.4. So, running following command fix the issue.

sudo apt-get install php8.0-redis

It looks like it was missing redis extension for php 8.0
