php manifester build /var/www/myNewPackage /var/www/myModifiedInstance
A command line tool for automatically generating a manifest file and copying the files into a folder, ready to zip.
Clone this repository and run composer update.
- Make changes in your SuiteCRM instance, commit them to git.
- Run the
manifester buildcommand. - Zip the folder!
The build command runs the entire process of new, update and fulfill. This will
overwrite any existing manifest, so if you want to update a package you should use
the suitable commands below.
php manifester build <target directory> <SCRM instance directory> <commit (optional)>
The commit argument is optional and defaults to master
The new command takes a folder path, creates it if it doesn't exist, and copies over a boilerplate manifest and license.
php manifester new <directory>
The update command does a git diff and parses the list of files into our manifest file.
php manifester update <manifest.php directory> <SCRM instance directory> <commit>
The git diff will return a list of changed files since commit and incorporate
this list into the manifest.php
The commit argument is optional and defaults to master
The fulfill command reads the contents of a manifest file, and tries to copy all the required files from the specified instance to the same folder structure relative to the manifest.php location.
php manifester fulfill <manifest.php directory> <SCRM instance directory>
If your manifest is in /var/www/MyModuleToExport and your SCRM instance in /var/www/SuiteCRM
Then your command would look like
php manifester fulfill /var/www/MyModuleToExport /var/www/SuiteCRM
Leaving you with a folder ready to compress and export the module.
