Laravel Packager

Latest Version on Packagist Total Downloads Build Status StyleCI

This package provides you with a simple tool to set up a new package and it will let you focus on the development of the package instead of the boilerplate. If you like a visual explanation check out this video by Jeffrey Way on Laracasts.

Installation

Via Composer

composer require jeroen-g/laravel-packager --dev

If you do not run Laravel 5.5 (or higher), then add the service provider in config/app.php:

JeroenG\Packager\PackagerServiceProvider::class,

If you do run the package on Laravel 5.5+, package auto-discovery takes care of the magic of adding the service provider. Be aware that the auto-discovery also means that this package is loaded in your production environment. Therefore you may disable auto-discovery and instead put in your AppServiceProvider something like this:

if ($this->app->environment('local')) {
    $this->app->register('JeroenG\Packager\PackagerServiceProvider');
}

Optional you can publish the configuration to provide a different service provider stub. The default is here.

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="JeroenG\Packager\PackagerServiceProvider"

Available commands

New

Command:

php artisan packager:new my-vendor my-package

Result: The command will handle practically everything for you. It will create a packages directory, creates the vendor and package directory in it, pulls in a skeleton package, sets up composer.json and creates a service provider.

Options:

php artisan packager:new my-vendor my-package --i
php artisan packager:new --i

The package will be created interactively, allowing to configure everything in the package's composer.json, such as the license and package description.

php artisan packager:new my-vendor/my-package

Alternatively you may also define your vendor and name with a forward slash instead of a space.

Remarks: The new package will be based on this custom skeleton. If you want to use a different package skeleton, you can either:

  • (A) publish the configuration file and change the default skeleton that will be used by all packager:new calls.
  • (B) use the flag --skeleton="http://github.com/path/to/archive/master.zip" with your own skeleton to use the given skeleton for this one run instead of the one in the configuration.

Get & Git

Command:

php artisan packager:get https://github.com/author/repository
php artisan packager:git https://github.com/author/repository

Result: This will register the package in the app's composer.json file. If the packager:git command is used, the entire Git repository is cloned. If packager:get is used, the package will be downloaded, without a repository. This also works with Bitbucket repositories, but you have to provide the flag --host=bitbucket for the packager:get command.

Options:

php artisan packager:get https://github.com/author/repository --branch=develop
php artisan packager:get https://github.com/author/repository my-vendor my-package
php artisan packager:git https://github.com/author/repository my-vendor my-package

It is possible to specify a branch with the --branch option. If you specify a vendor and name directly after the url, those will be used instead of the pieces of the url.

Tests

Command:

php artisan packager:tests

Result: Packager will go through all maintaining packages (in packages/) and publish their tests to tests/packages. Add the following to phpunit.xml (under the other testsuites) in order to run the tests from the packages:

<testsuite name="Packages">
    <directory suffix="Test.php">./tests/packages</directory>
</testsuite>

Options:

php artisan packager:tests my-vendor my-package

Remarks: If a tests folder exists, the files will be copied to a dedicated folder in the Laravel App tests folder. This allows you to use all of Laravel's own testing functions without any hassle.

List

Command:

php artisan packager:list

Result: An overview of all packages in the /packages directory.

Options:

php artisan packager:list --git

The packages are displayed with information on the git status (branch, commit difference with origin) if it is a git repository.

Remove

Command:

php artisan packager:remove my-vendor my-package

Result: The my-vendor\my-package package is deleted, including its references in composer.json and config/app.php.

Publish

Command:

php artisan packager:publish my-vendor my-package https://github.com/my-vendor/my-package

Result: The my-vendor\my-package package will be published to Github using the provided url.

Check

Command:

php artisan packager:check my-vendor my-package

Result: The my-vendor\my-package package will be checked for security vulnerabilities using SensioLabs security checker.

Remarks You first need to run

composer require sensiolabs/security-checker

Issues with cURL SSL certificate

It turns out that, especially on Windows, there might arise some problems with the downloading of the skeleton, due to a file regarding SSL certificates missing on the OS. This can be solved by opening up your .env file and putting this in it:

CURL_VERIFY=false

Of course this means it will be less secure, but then again you are not supposed to run this package anywhere near a production environment.

Issues with timeout

If you are having problems with timeouts when creating new packages, you can now change the config variable timeout in config/packager.php to fix this.
