Mango Nova v1.0.0 ("Next Summer" edition)

Intruduction

Mango Nova package provides Nova's functionality for a given project. Basic functionality, like Menus and Content are provided by the Nova package, this package is just a bridge to bind Nova to Mango based project.

Install

First we have to install Mango Nova:

composer require brightly/mango-nova:"dev-feature/next-summer"

Mango Nova provides a lot of stuff, by default, like a Laravel Nova package. So, after yous installed Mango Nova, you have to publish some different part of that:

artisan vendor:publish --tag=mango-nova-dev
artisan vendor:publish --tag=mango-nova-views
artisan vendor:publish --tag=mango-nova-migrations

...and then you just should add to your composer.json the next lines:

require-dev: {
    ...
    "laravel/nova": "*"
},
repositories:
[
    ...
    {
        "type": "path",
        "url": "./nova"
    }
]

...and of course, run:

composer update

This is a bigger update: This will install the full Laravel Nova package. So, now we have to set up Nova with the pre-built Mango classes to get everything work well together. To have everything installed well, first you'll have to install Nova after composer update:

php artisan nova:install

Next step:

composer require anaseqal/nova-sidebar-icons:"^0.0.3"

...and then...

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Anaseqal\\NovaSidebarIcons\\ToolServiceProvider" --force

use Anaseqal\NovaSidebarIcons\NovaSidebarIcons;
...

public function tools()
{
    return [
        new NovaSidebarIcons,
        ...
    ];
}

We also need some composer packages:

composer require benjaminhirsch/nova-slug-field:"^1.2"
composer require michielkempen/nova-order-field:"^2.0"
composer require ebess/advanced-nova-media-library:"2.9.1"

...and at least, some other settings already:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=nova-media-library
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Spatie\MediaLibrary\MediaLibraryServiceProvider" --tag="migrations"
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=mango-nova-providers
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=mango-nova-config

Migrations

Migrations added by default right after installed by the Composer. >>> :warning:

Migrations are very important!: The Mango uses UUID as primary key for all models under \Brightly\Mango\Models namespace. This means, this is not compatible with the integer type IDs, so we also have to change Nova's field. >>>

artisan migrate

Usage

return [

        // new \Brightly\MangoNovaMenu\MangoNovaMenu(),
        new NovaSidebarIcons,
    ];2013

brightly / mango-nova
