Adding Column using sqlite caused error 'Cannot add a NOT NULL column with default value NULL'

After the security update I had to add a remember_token to my user table. security update

Since I am using sqllite locally I ended up with this error

>php artisan migrate

  [Illuminate\Database\QueryException]
  SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1 Cannot add a NOT NULL column with default value NULL (SQL: alter table "users" add column "remember_token" text not null)

Finally this post made it clear I had to make this nullable

//migration file
	/**
	 * Run the migrations.
	 *
	 * @return void
	 */
	public function up()
	{
		Schema::table('users', function(Blueprint $table)
		{
			$table->text('remember_token')->nullable();
		});
	}
