📝 Introduction

One thing we at Nodes have been missing in Laravel is a fast implemented backend which is easy to build on top of

📦 Installation

To install this package you will need:

  • Laravel 5.1+
  • PHP 5.5.9+

You must then modify your composer.json file and run composer update to include the latest version of the package in your project.

"require": {
    "nodes/backend": "3.1.*",
}

Or you can run the composer require command from your terminal.

composer require nodes/backend

🔧 Setup

Setup service providers in config/app.php

Nodes\Backend\ServiceProvider::class,
Nodes\Assets\ServiceProvider::class,
Nodes\Validation\ServiceProvider::class,
Nodes\Cache\ServiceProvider::class,
Collective\Html\HtmlServiceProvider::class,
Nodes\ServiceProvider::class,

Setup alias in config/app.php

'Backend'        => Nodes\Backend\Support\Facades\Backend::class,
'Form'           => Collective\Html\FormFacade::class,
'Html'           => Collective\Html\HtmlFacade::class,

Publish config file all config files at once, we need to use force on backend, since we override gulp. The regular vendor:publish is for the 3 other packages

php artisan vendor:publish && php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Nodes\Backend\ServiceProvider" --force

Publish config file for backend plugin only

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Nodes\Backend\ServiceProvider"

Overwrite config file for backend plugin only

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Nodes\Backend\ServiceProvider" --force

Add following to your /database/seeds/DatabaseSeeder.php

$this->call('NodesBackendSeeder');

Dump

composer dump-autoload

Now you can call php artisan migrate --seed Which will add the new tables and seed the roles/users to get going

Add to config/nodes/autoload.php

'project/Routes/Backend/',

Run bower, npm & gulp to build css & js

bower install && npm install && gulp build

Set up CSRF by pass in App\Http\Middleware\VerifyCsrfToken.php

protected $except = [
    'admin/manager_auth',
];

Make TokenMismatch exceptions more user friendly, add following to App\Exceptions\Handler.php

public function render($request, Exception $e)
{
    // Just redirect back to previous route if there is any, else all the way back to dashboard
    // Instead of a ugly whoops error!
    if ($exception instanceof TokenMismatchException) {
        try {
            return redirect()->back()->with('error', 'Token mismatch, try again')->send();
        } catch (\Throwable $e) {}
    }
    ....
}
