Install

1. Run in your terminal:

$ composer require backpack/base

2. Add the service providers in config/app.php:

Backpack\Base\BaseServiceProvider::class,
'Prologue\Alerts\AlertsServiceProvider',

3. Add the alias to the list of aliases in config/app.php:

'Alert' => 'Prologue\Alerts\Facades\Alert',

4. Then run a few commands in the terminal:

$ rm -rf app/Http/Controllers/Auth #deletes laravel's demo auth controllers
$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Backpack\Base\BaseServiceProvider" #publishes configs, langs, views and AdminLTE files
$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Prologue\Alerts\AlertsServiceProvider" # publish config for notifications - prologue/alerts
$ php artisan migrate #generates users table (using Laravel's default migrations)

5. [optional] Change values in config/backpack/base.php to make the admin panel your own. Change menu color, project name, developer name etc.

6. [optional] If you want to be able to use the Reset Password functionality, you need to specify to Laravel to use the Backpack email for this. At the end of your \config\auth.php file, change:

'passwords' => [
        'users' => [
            'provider' => 'users',
            'email' => 'backpack::auth.emails.password', // <--- change is here
            'table' => 'password_resets',
            'expire' => 60,
        ],
    ],

Usage

1. Register a new user at yourappname/admin/register
2. Your admin panel will be available at yourappname/admin or yourappname/login
3. [optional] If you're building an admin panel, you should close the registration. In config/backpack/base.php look for "registration_open" and change it to false.
