README

pingpong/modules is a laravel package which created to manage your large laravel app using modules. Module is like a laravel package, it have some views, controllers or models. This package is supported and tested in both Laravel 4 and Laravel 5.

Upgrade Guide

To 2.0.18

If you have been updated to version 2.0.18, please read this release note.

To 2.0.10

Previously, we add two service provider from this package. In version 2.0.5, we just need register one service provider. Now, we can remove Pingpong\Modules\Providers\BootstrapServiceProvider from providers array, because now it service provider is registered automatically by Pingpong\Modules\ModulesServiceProvider.

From Laravel 4 to Laravel 5

If upgrade your Laravel app from Laravel 4 to Laravel 5, there is a few things to do if you are using this package. You will receive some kind errors about config not loaded. To fix this issue, please follow this instruction.

  • If you publish the package's configuration file, you need to move the config file from app/config/packages/pingpong/modules/config.php to app/config/modules.php.
  • If you are not publish the package's configuration file and you want to publish the config file, just run php artisan vendor:publish command and you are done.

From 1.1.* to 1.2.0

New configuration file. This breaking change affected if you publish the configuration file from this package. To fix this issue, create new config file called config.php in your app/config/packages/pingpong/modules/ directory. Next move the array contents from paths.php file to paths array in new configuration file. Your config file will looks like this.

Installation

To install through composer, simply put the following in your composer.json file:

{
    "require": {
        "pingpong/modules": "~2.1"
    }
}

And then run composer install to fetch the package.

Quick Installation

You could also simplify the above code by using the following command:

composer require "pingpong/modules:~2.1"

Add Service Provider

Next add the following service provider in config/app.php.

'providers' => array(
  'Pingpong\Modules\ModulesServiceProvider',
),

Next, add the following aliases to aliases array in the same file.

'aliases' => array(
  'Module' => 'Pingpong\Modules\Facades\Module',
),

Next publish the package's configuration file by run :

php artisan vendor:publish

Autoloading

By default controllers, entities or repositories not loaded automatically. You can autoload all that stuff using psr-4. For example :

{
  "autoload": {
    "psr-4": {
      "App\\": "app/",
      "Modules\\": "modules/"
    }
  }
}

Configuration

  • modules - Used for save the generated modules.
  • assets - Used for save the modules's assets from each modules.
  • migration - Used for save the modules's migrations if you publish the modules's migrations.
  • generator - Used for generate modules folders.
  • scan - Used for allow to scan other folders.
  • enabled - If true, the package will scan other paths. By default the value is false
  • paths - The list of path which can scanned automatically by the package.
  • composer
    • vendor - Composer vendor name.
    • author.name - Composer author name.
    • author.email - Composer author email.
  • cache
    • enabled - If true, the scanned modules (all modules) will cached automatically. By default the value is false
    • key - The name of cache.
    • lifetime - Lifetime of cache.

Creating A Module

To create a new module you can simply run :

php artisan module:make <module-name>
  • <module-name> - Required. The name of module will be created.

Create a new module

php artisan module:make Blog

Create multiple modules

php artisan module:make Blog User Auth

By default if you create a new module, that will add some resources like controller, seed class or provider automatically. If you don't want these, you can add --plain flag, to generate a plain module.

php artisan module:make Blog --plain
#OR
php artisan module:make Blog -p

Naming Convension

Because we are autoloading the modules using psr-4, we strongly recommend using StudlyCase convension.

Custom Namespaces

When you create a new module it also registers new custom namespace for Lang, View and Config. For example, if you create a new module named blog, it will also register new namespace/hint blog for that module. Then, you can use that namespace for calling Lang, View or Config. Following are some examples of its usage:

Calling Lang:

Lang::get('blog::group.name');

Calling View:

View::make('blog::index')

View::make('blog::partials.sidebar')

Calling Config:

Config::get('blog.name')

Publishing Modules

Have you created a laravel modules? Yes, I've. Then, I want to publish my modules. Where do I publish it? That's the question. What's the answer ? The answer is Packagist. In pingpong/modules version >= 1.2.0, when you generate a module, you will see there is a new file generated called composer.json.

Auto Scan Vendor Directory

By default the vendor directory is not scanned automatically, you need to update the configuration file to allow that. Set scan.enabled value to true. For example :

// file config/modules.php

return [
  //...
  'scan' => [
    'enabled' => true
  ]
  //...
]

You can verify the module has been installed using module:list command:

php artisan module:list

Publishing Modules

After creating a module and you are sure your module module will be used by other developers. You can push your module to github or bitbucket and after that you can submit your module to the packagist website.

You can follow this step to publish your module.

  1. Create A Module.
  2. Push the module to github.
  3. Submit your module to the packagist website. Submit to packagist is very easy, just give your github repository, click submit and you done.
