laravel-require


This Laravel 5 package provides a require:package artisan command, which first installs a package via composer, then attempts to automatically register its service provider(s) and facades.

This makes it even easier to install a Laravel package!

Written and tested with Laravel 5.4.


Installation

You may install this package using composer: composer require patinthehat/laravel-require

Once it's installed, you must add the service provider to the 'providers' section in your config/app.php file:

LaravelRequire\LaravelRequireServiceProvider::class,

You will now have a require:package {package-name} command available in artisan. It will attempt to automatically register the service provider for a package after installation, and will let you know if it is unable to do so. If this happens, you will have to register the package manually.


Requirements

In order for laravel-require to work properly, you must either have composer.phar in your project's base directory or have the composer command available in your environment's PATH variable.


Example Usage

$ php artisan require:package laracasts/flash

This installs and registers the flash package from laracasts.

$ php artisan require:package laracasts/flash --register-only

This will skip running the composer require command entirely, and only attempt to register the package's Service Providers and Facades.


How it works

laravel-require first creates a list of files in the package that might contain a Service Provider or Facade. It first attempts to locate Service Providers/Facades through matching filenames. If this fails, the contents of the files are scanned to locate the Service Providers and Facades.
