Silverstripe CMS supported module skeleton

A useful skeleton to more easily create a Silverstripe CMS Module that conform to the Module Standard.

This README contains descriptions of the parts of this module base you should customise to meet you own module needs. For example, the module name in the H1 above should be you own module name, and the description text you are reading now is where you should provide a good short explanation of what your module does.

Where possible we have included default text that can be included as is into your module and indicated in other places where you need to customise it

Below is a template of the sections of your README.md you should ideally include to met the Module Standard and help others make use of your modules.

Steps to prepare this module for your own use

Ensure you read the 'publishing a module' guide and update your module's composer.json to designate your code as a Silversripe CMS module.

  • Clone this repository into a folder
  • Add your name/organisation to LICENSE.md
  • Update this README with information about your module. Ensure sections that aren't relevant are deleted and placeholders are edited where relevant
  • Review the README files in the various provided directories. You should ultimately delete these README files when you have added your code
  • Update the module's composer.json with your requirements and package name
  • Update (or remove) package.json with your requirements and package name. Run yarn install (or remove yarn.lock) to ensure dependencies resolve correctly
  • Clear the git history by running rm -rf .git && git init
  • Add and push to a VCS repository
  • Either publish the module on packagist.org, or add a custom repository to your main composer.json
  • Require the module in your main composer.json
  • If you need to build your css or js and are using components, injector, scss variables, etc from silverstripe/admin:
    • Ensure that silverstripe/admin is installed with composer install --prefer-source instead of the default --prefer-dist (you can use composer reinstall silverstripe/admin --prefer-source if you already installed it)
    • If you are relying on additional dependencies from silverstripe/admin instead of adding them as dependencies in your package.json file, you need to install third party dependencies in silverstripe/admin by running yarn install in the vendor/silverstripe/admin/ directory.
  • Start developing your module!

License

See License

This module template defaults to using the "BSD-3-Clause" license. The BSD-3 license is one of the most permissive open-source license and is used by most Silverstripe CMS module.

To publish your module under a different license:

  • update the license.md file
  • update the license' key in your [composer.json`](composer.json).

You can use choosealicense.com to help you pick a suitable license for your project.

You do not need to keep this section in your README file - the LICENSE.md file is sufficient.

Installation

Replace silverstripe-module/skeleton in the command below with the composer name of your module.

composer require silverstripe-module/skeleton

Note: When you have completed your module, submit it to Packagist or add it as a VCS repository to your project's composer.json, pointing to the private repository URL.

Documentation

Add links into your docs/<language> folder here unless your module only requires minimal documentation in that case, add here and remove the docs folder. You might use this as a quick table of content if you mhave multiple documentation pages.

Example configuration

If your module makes use of the config API in Silverstripe CMS it's a good idea to provide an example config here that will get the module working out of the box and expose the user to the possible configuration options. Though note that in many cases simply linking to the documentation is enough.

Provide a syntax-highlighted code examples where possible.
