README

This package is a part of the Lartificer project, based on the Laravel Framework. Only to use inside a Laravel project.

Installation

The whole project is available as Packagist Lartificer project to use with Composer.

To use the news package in your Laravel project, first add it to the composer.json in your project's root directory. To enable custom install paths for your Composer packages, it is also necessary to require the composer-custom-directory-installer. To seed your dummy database, use fzaninotto/Faker.

How to use?

• Your Website must contain a login functionality in order to be able to login and edit/create/delete news entries
• Multi language feature:
  As there can be seen in the NewsController class of the news module, change the $languages variable to fit your needs. Add the corresponding language files in the src/lang directory. The files in this directory determine the displayed texts and the routes.
• Add the link to the news overview page to a page of your choice:
  <a href="{{ trans("news::links.overview") }}">Link to the news overview page</a>
• After you made your changes, the files have to be published like so:
  php artisan vendor:publish --provider="vendor/lartificer/contactform/src/Lartificer/News/NewsServiceProvider" --tag="public" Use accordingly for your migrations. See the the publish methods in the NewsServiceProvider.

To create your database, you can use the migrations in the src/database/migrations folder.

Composer

"require": {
		"laravel/framework": "5.0.*",
		...
        "mnsami/composer-custom-directory-installer": "1.0.*",
        "lartificer/news": "dev-master"
	},

Make the PSR-0 namespace fit, and add the extra option to install the package at a custom path.

    "autoload": {
        ...
	    "psr-0": {
		  "Lartificer\\News": "path/to/lartificer/news/src/"
		}
	},
    "extra": {
      "installer-paths": {
        "./path/to/lartificer/news/": ["lartificer/news"]
      }
    }

App.php

Now you have to register the NewsServiceProvider in your app.php file.

'providers' => [

		...
		
		/*
		 * Lartificer
		 */ 
		'Lartificer\News\NewsServiceProvider',

	],
