FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Customization

Publish the package config:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider='Chencha\Share\ShareServiceProvider'

Add a new service in config/social-share.php:

'mynewservice' => [ 'view' => 'share.mynewservice' ]

Add Blade templating code in share.mynewservice view file to generate a URL for mynewservice. You have access to:

Example:

https://mynewservice.example.com?url={{ rawurlencode($url) }}title={{ rawurlencode("Check this out! $title. See it here: $url") }}

Another example for the email service. Change the service config to be [ 'view' => 'whatever' ] and put this in the view file:

mailto:?subject={{ rawurlencode("Wow, check this: $title") }}body={{ rawurlencode("Check this out! $title. See it here: $url") }}

Localizing? Easy, use Laravel's trans() call:

mailto:?subject={{ rawurlencode(trans('share.email-subject', compact('url', 'title', 'media'))) }}body={{ rawurlencode(trans('share.email-body', compact('url', 'title', 'media'))) }}

Create a file at resources/lang/en/share.php with your choice of subject and body. URLs arguably have a maximum length of 2000 characters.

Notice the use of **. It's the only way to print out an unencoded ampersand (if configured that way).

Upgrades

When the package is upgraded, changes to the config and views should be republished into your project:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider='Chencha\Share\ShareServiceProvider'

Use source control to work out what has changed if you have customized the files.
