Installion

To get started with Workbench, add to your composer.json file as a dependency:

composer require larastarscn/workbench

Then type the composer install command to the cli.

Configure

After installing the Workbench libary, register the Larastarscn\Workbench\WorkbenchServiceProvider in your config/app.php configuration file:

'providers' => [
    // Other service providers...

    Larastarscn\Workbench\WorkbenchServiceProvider::class,
]

Also, add the WorkbenchMakeCommand command class to the commands array in your app/Console/Kernel.php file:

protected $commands = [
    \Larastarscn\Workbench\Console\WorkbenchMakeCommand::class,
];

Then, you will need to publish the workbench.php configuration file to the config directory:

php artisan vendor:publish

Also, you will need register the author infomation within config/workbench.php.

Usage

Next, you are ready to create a new package via Workbench! Simple type fllowing command to the cli:

php artisan workbench vendor/package

Just it! For example, if you want make a package that the name is larastarscn/test. Just run command like this:

php artisan workbench larastarscn/test

Then the workbench will ask you that "What directories do you want?", if you don't want any sub-directory in your package, just type value that one of null，no, n, false.

Also, you can create multiple directories at once, just split those via comma symbol.

Even you can create the nested directories using "dot" notation:

> What directories do you want?
> config,resource.view,resource.lang,test

Once the package structure is generated. Workbench will automatically map the namespace of the package within the root composer.json file for you.
