Setp's to create a new laravel package

->Command Line your sites Dir

  composer create-project laravel/laravel=4.2.11 your-project-name
 
  OR 

  composer.json
  "require": {
     "laravel/laravel": "v4.2.11",
},

->this will install laravel

->Now Create a database table and config to respective DB file. If you have set up an Env make sure that the DB config is in the right folder.

Steps on how to install this for your workbench along with creating a new workbench package :

For Building a new package ; - go to

    config/workbench.php  
    name ='jai'  email = 'your choice of email ' 

Run form root folder

 php artisan workbench Jai/new_Package_name

TO Install ACL:

On command line navigate to workbench/jai

run this :

   git clone  https://github.com/jaiwalker/dms_backend.git laravel-authentication-acl
   git clone  https://github.com/jaiwalker/dms_backend_lib.git  laravel-library

this should create 2 new folders in jai folder

  jai/
  --- -/laravel-library
  --- -/laravel-authentication-acl

Now move to laravel-authentication-acl folder :

Run :

 composer update  
 and
 composer dump-autoload

This should load all composer dependencies to vendor folder. Do the same for workbench/jai/laravel-library/ folder run

 composer update   
 and 
 composer dump-autoload 

Now Go to file app/config/app.php add to the 'providers' add the following in the array :

'Jai\Authentication\AuthenticationServiceProvider',

Now navigate to root folder
run

    php artisan dump-autload  
    and
    composer dump-autoload 

Now run

       php artisan 

Now you have to see two new artisan command : authentication:prepare or authentication:install in the list

Tips: if you encounter any error when you run this move this above 'Illuminate\Workbench\WorkbenchServiceProvider', laravel bug i suppose.

New Feature added now ( Artisan Command files ) : http://ryantablada.com/post/creating-an-installer-script

php artisan authentication:prepare  

• this will publish the config to app/packages/jai/laravel-authentication-acl folder

  php artisan authentication:install

• this will do all migrations , DB seeding and assets Tips : if you find any DB error you have forgot to run " php artisan dump-autoload" if you encounter db.permission unable to locate error .- it means that the folder name ( vendor name ) must be wrong
  - case sensitive - if you want to alter file names : workbench/jai/laravel-authentication-acl/src/commands/installCommand.php - fire method

Alternate Solutions : you can run these command individually

 php artisan config:publish --path="workbench/jai/laravel-authentication-acl/src/config" jai/laravel-authentication-acl
 
 php artisan migrate --bench='jai/laravel-authentication-acl'  // folder name jai/Jai 
 
 php artisan asset:publish --bench="jai/laravel-authentication-acl"
 
  I am unable to seed db using this 

Now ready to go : laravel/admin -

http://url_of_your_application/login the client login page (after logging in will redirect you to the home page) [ username:admin@admin.com password:password ]
http://url_of_your_application/admin/login the admin login page (after logging in will redirect you to the admin panel) [ username:admin@admin.com password:password ]
http://url_of_your_application/user/signup the new user signup form (to register a new user)
http://url_of_your_application/user/logout the logout page

OLD WAY OF PUBLISHING THINGS

Now publish assets out :

Command Line : navigate to main forlder ( project name) and run 
php artisan asset:publish --bench="jai/laravel-authentication-acl"

will create an assets folders in pulic folders - puclic/packages/jai/laravel-authentication-acl  

Now config Migrations :

Note: make sure that db Config is specified in you ENV folder

go back to root folder i.e  Package name/

php artisan config:publish --path="workbench/jai/laravel-authentication-acl/src/config" jai/laravel-authentication-acl
 this  should  puclish the workbech package config  to  project folder app foler.

 # Migrations 

 php artisan migrate --bench="vendor/package"  this will do   all the migrations for us

 # DB seeds
