huenisys/start

starter package for Laravel 5.5

huenisys/start

This package guides you in getting your Laravel 5.5 site started, _(*1)

Installation

• $ composer require "huenisys/start"
• For development, use autoload-dev instead

"autoload-dev": {
    "psr-4": {
        "Tests\\": "tests/",
        "Huenisys\\Start\\": "../laravel-packages/huenisys/start/src"
    }
},

• add provider: Huenisys\Start\StartServiceProvider::class,

Steps

• Clone the laravel repo. Consider using the provided binary: $ laravel new l55.site
• Create per project Homestead:
• $ composer require "laravel/homestead"
• $ php vendor/bin/homestead make or $ vendor\\bin\\homestead make
• Setup the dev machine like what's shown in resources/Homestead.yaml
• Install composer packages: $ composer install

Notes

• laravel-packages directory is used to ease up package development
• During development, we just do autoload them. Take for example huenisys/tpl entry below. All we're doing is using relative paths to keep the package accessible without cluttering the git history

"autoload-dev": {
    "psr-4": {
        "Tests\\": "tests/",
        "Huenisys\\Tpl\\": "../laravel-packages/huenisys/tpl/src"
    }
},
