README

Magegen is a build system for Magento extensions.

We couldn't found a simple way to build Magento extensions, so we made our own. This tool works well with (and requires) modman. Learn more about modman here. Your extensions modman file is parsed to create the directory and file listing for your package.xml.

Installation

We install this tool as a composer dependency in our extensions.

{
    "require-dev": {
        "delegator/magegen": "*"
    }
}

Usage

Before you can use magegen, you should have a working .modman directory with a project deployed. In your project's repo directory, add the magegen dependency and update composer with composer update.

magegen requires that you have a correct modman file AND a package.template.xml file.

To generate a package.template.xml file, run vendor/bin/magegen init.

Make sure you edit the package.template.xml file to match your extension's information. Leave the following nodes empty, magegen will fill them in when building your extension:

• date
• time
• contents

When you are ready to build your extension (generate a .tgz file), navigate to the root of your modman repo directory and run vendor/bin/magegen build

Hooks

For some projects, you may need to compile assets or move files before building. To accommodate this, a simple hook system executes your code for the following events.

Hook Name	When the hook is executed
pre_build	Before the 'build' command executes
post_build	After the 'build' command executes
pre_check	Before the 'check' command executes
post_check	After the 'check' command executes
pre_clean	Before the 'clean' command executes
post_clean	After the 'clean' command executes
pre_init	Before the 'init' command executes
post_init	After the 'init' command executes

To execute your code for each of these hooks, create a directory at magegen/[hook_name]/. In that directory, add PHP files that will be executed as the hook fires.
