FAQ
Example:
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 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.

Laravel Scenarios
This little package helps you set your Laravel application into a given state/scenario.
Let's say that you want to finally fix that pesky edge case bug and for that you need to have your application in a very specific state. Example:
- you need to have a user with role X
- your user needs to have bought two products
- the payment for the second product needs to have status Y
- Another condition
- Extra condition
- Last condition
With this package you can create a new Scenario, write the code needed to have the application in the state above, and run the command to set the scenario.
Voilá! Now you have a nice file descriptive file that sets your application into the right state so you can easily develop against and reset everytime you need it.
Not only that, but it also makes it easy for other people to quickly check which scenarios are available, and use them.
Installation
You can install the package via composer:
Go to you composer.json and add the following:
Usage
To create a new scenario:
Be descriptive with your names. Do not be afraid of long names.
The file will be created at ./database/scenarios/
Set an alias and a nice description for it. Then on the execute method add the necessary code to place your
application into the desired state. Usually you do that by running factories, seeders, etc...
The output method allows you to output information to the console once the scenario has been set. This is useful to
display information that you might need, like a user login, or an url that you might need to visit.
All the Laravel Output IO commands are available apart from the
progress bar.
You can also use Termwind for a prettier output.
To set a scenario
More often than not, you want to clean your database. If that's the case, you can use the --fresh option:
Questions
- Why not just use seeders?
- IMHO seeders are nice to put your application into a default state not specific ones.
- Why not use commands?
- You can definitely use commands. I've certainly done so. Nonetheless, I like to see commands as business logic, whereas scenarios is something you need while developing/debugging. This way I can keep my commands folder clean, and my scenarios neatly organized in their own folder.
