Starter Template Usage

This starter template is designed to get you up and going with Laravel 4 as quickly as possible. Laravel 4 has removed certain functionality that was available in Laravel 3. The reason was due to duplication of work.

This package includes these "missing features".

Now that Laravel 4 is using Composer (php equivalent of node's NPM or Ruby's RVM), you can add any required functionality to your app via Composer packages (Laravel itself is a Composer package and so are its dependencies).

#####Clone the Laravel 4 Starter Template wherever you want to start your project.

	git clone https://github.com/niallobrien/laravel4-template.git name-of-project
	cd name-of-project

This is a good starting point for Laravel 4 projects.

#####Install Composer inside your project directory. curl -s http://getcomposer.org/installer | php

#####Install all required packages. php composer.phar install

#####Git to work! :)

Added Packages

  1. raveren/kint
  2. PHPunit

dd() is no longer available in L4, so I've included Kint which is a great debugging helper.

For running tests, PHPunit is required, so I've added it to dev. To install, run:

	php composer.phar install --dev

Then within your project directory, run 'phpunit' (without quotes) to run the example tests included with L4. See the Unit testing L4 docs for more info.
