Synopsis

This package lets you easily bootstrap data, objects, or whatever from an xml configuration file. The xml configuration file however must validate against a provided xsd schema.

Installation

Add thapp/xmlconf as a requirement to composer.json:

{
    "require": {
        "thapp/xmlconf": "1.0.*"
    }
}

Then run composer update or composer install

Next step is to tell laravel to load the serviceprovider. In app/config/app.php add

  // ...
  'Thapp\XmlConf\XmlConfServiceProvider' 
  // ...

to the providers array.

Publish configuration

php artisan config:publish thapp/xmlconfig

Examples

This package provides an example directory that should get you started quickly.

For a first glimpse you may copy the storage/sections/config.xml that is included with this package to app/storage/sections/config.xml.

Next, create a new route. Somethig like this should do:

Route::get('/examples', function () use ($app) {
    $SectionRepository = new Thapp\XmlConf\Examples\Sections\Repository($app['xmlconf.sections']);
    var_dump($SectionRepository);
});
