Laravel CMS Package

A Webflow-like inline content management system for Laravel applications.

Installation

1. Install via Composer

composer require webook/laravel-cms

2. Publish Configuration

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Webook\LaravelCMS\CMSServiceProvider" --tag=cms-config

3. Publish and Run Migrations

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Webook\LaravelCMS\CMSServiceProvider" --tag=cms-migrations
php artisan migrate

4. Create Storage Link

For image uploads to work properly, you need to create a symbolic link:

php artisan storage:link

5. Publish Assets (Optional)

If you want to customize the CMS assets:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Webook\LaravelCMS\CMSServiceProvider" --tag=cms-assets

Configuration

The configuration file will be published to config/cms.php. You can customize:

• Toolbar settings: Position (top/bottom), theme (dark/light), auto-injection
• Storage settings: Disk and path for media uploads
• Cache settings: Enable/disable caching, TTL
• Editor settings: Toolbar buttons available in the rich text editor
• Media settings: Upload disk, path, max file size, allowed file types

Usage

Basic Usage

Once installed, the CMS toolbar will automatically be injected into your pages when enabled.

1. Navigate to any page in your application
2. Click "Edit" in the toolbar to enter edit mode
3. Hover over any content to see editable areas
4. Click to edit text inline
5. For images, hover to see the gear icon for changing images
6. Click "Save" to persist changes

Permissions

By default, the CMS is available without authentication. To restrict access, add your own middleware to the configuration:

// config/cms.php
'middleware' => [
    'web',
    'auth',  // Add authentication
    'can:edit-content', // Add authorization
],

Excluding Content

To prevent content from being editable, add the data-cms-ignore attribute:

<div data-cms-ignore="true">
    This content won't be editable
</div>

Database Content

Content fetched from database models will automatically be marked as "coming soon" and won't be editable yet.

Troubleshooting
