README

A template to use for development of UCRM Plugins.

Installation

IMPORTANT: The recommended way to use the template is to fork the repo, so that you can later merge any upstream changes to the template.

If this method is chosen, then you will obviously need to clone your forked repo to your development machine and then run:

composer update

OR

If you simply want a one-off project ready for development and are not concerned with upstream changes, then run the following:

composer create-project ucrm-plugins/plugin-template-vue <project_name> 

NOTES:

  • Either of the above two methods will provide a fully functional plugin template, ready for immediate use.
  • Included in the template is a pre-bundled example `plugin-template-vue.zip` of what you get out-of-the-box.

Folder Structure

The template folder structure is as follows:
