README

Dead-simple setup for Laravel apps. Environmentalist is a collection of handy tools for making setup scripts with Artisan. Easily create an environment file, prompt the user for values (with smart defaults & autocomplete), and run commands - all without needing to write out or follow lengthy directions.

Installation

To install this package simply add it to your Laravel project using composer:

$ composer require dfurnes/environmentalist

Usage

Environmentalist is essentially a PHP trait that provides a collection of helpful methods that you can use within your console commands for setting up a project.

To begin using it, you need to create a console command in your Laravel project. As an exmaple, let's create a new SetupCommand for our project:

$ php artisan make:command SetupCommand

In the app/Console/Commands directory, you should have a new SetupCommand.php file.

Now

Now, within this file, you can use the ConfiguresApplication trait in the class and import the file:

namespace App\Console\Commands;

use DFurnes\Environmentalist\ConfiguresApplication;
use Illuminate\Console\Command;

class SetupCommand extends Command
{
    use ConfiguresApplication;

    /**
     * The name and signature of the console command.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $signature = 'setup';

    /**
     * The console command description.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $description = 'Configure your application.';

    /**
     * Create a new command instance.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function __construct()
    {
        parent::__construct();
    }

    /**
     * Execute the console command.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function handle()
    {
        // Setup code and environmentalist configuration methods used here!
    }

}

Be sure to set a $signature to define the name of the command to run, and a $description that describes what it does.
