What This Extension Adds

Blog is an Available, Schema-owning Capell package in the Capell Publishing Pro product group. It ships as capell-app/blog and extends these surfaces: admin, frontend, console.

Blog adds premium article publishing, archive pages, tag pages, article widgets, optional discovery and analytics bridges, and frontend Livewire page components to Capell.

After install, admins get package-owned management surfaces and public users may see package-owned frontend output or routes.

Why It Matters

For developers: The package gives developers package-owned service providers, Actions, Data objects, models, Filament classes, and Blade views instead of pushing this behaviour into core or application code.

For teams: Publish articles, archives, tag pages, and related-article widgets with multilingual, multi-site output and optional growth bridges.

Data Model

  • Models: Article.
  • Migration files: 2026_05_10_190842_01_create_articles_table.php.
  • Migration impact: run host migrations through the package install flow before opening package surfaces.
  • Deletion/retention behaviour: Docs gap unless the package has an explicit pruning command, retention setting, or tested cascade path.

Install Impact

  • Admin navigation: adds package-owned Filament classes when registered.
  • Permissions: article.view, article.create, article.update, article.delete, article.restore, article.force_delete, tag.view, tag.create, tag.update, tag.delete, tag.restore, tag.force_delete.
  • Public routes: none detected in package route files.
  • Database changes: package migrations are declared.
  • Settings: no package settings declared.
  • Queues or schedules: none detected in standard package paths.
  • Cache tags: blog.
  • Commands: capell:blog-demo, capell:blog-install, capell:blog-setup.

Common Pitfalls

  • Run migrations before opening package resources or public routes.
  • Keep public Blade and cached HTML free of authoring markers, model IDs, permissions, signed editor URLs, and lazy database queries.
  • Run package commands from the host app; in this repository use vendor/bin/pest for package tests.
  • Keep composer.json, composer.local.json, capell.json, docs, screenshots, and tests aligned when the package surface changes.

Troubleshooting

Symptom Likely cause Check Fix
Package surface is missing after install Provider or manifest is not loaded Confirm capell.json, package composer.json, and provider registration Reinstall the package, refresh Composer autoload, and clear host caches
Admin screen or command fails on missing table Package migrations have not run Check the tables listed in Data Model Run host migrations and rerun the focused package test
Background work does not run Queue worker or scheduled command is not active Check package jobs, commands, and host scheduler configuration Start the queue or scheduler, then run the focused command or package test
Public output leaks unexpected state Render data, cache variation, or authoring boundary has regressed Check public Blade, cache tags, and public-output safety tests Move data loading out of Blade and rerun the package public-output tests

Quick Start

  1. Install the package: composer require capell-app/blog.
  2. Run the required setup: php artisan capell:blog-setup.
