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.

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.

Introduction

Laravel Homestead is an official, pre-packaged Vagrant box that provides you a wonderful development environment without requiring you to install PHP, a web server, or any other server software on your local machine. No more worrying about messing up your operating system! Vagrant boxes are completely disposable. If something goes wrong, you can destroy and re-create the box in minutes!

Homestead runs on any Windows, Mac, or Linux system, and includes the Nginx web server, PHP, MySQL, Postgres, Redis, Memcached, Node, and all of the other goodies you need to develop amazing Laravel applications.

Official documentation is located here.

Components

Homestead is made up of 2 different projects. The first is this repo which is the Homestead application itself. The application is a wrapper around Vagrant which is an API consumer of a virtualization hypervisor, or provider such as Virtualbox, Hyper-V, VMware, Or Parallels. The second part of Homestead is Settler, which is essentially JSON & Bash scripts to turn a minimalistic Ubuntu OS into what we call Homestead base box. Homestead and Settler (AKA Homestead Base / Base Box) combined give you the Homestead development environment.

When you run vagrant up for the first time Vagrant will download the large base box from Vagrant cloud. The base box is the output from Settler. The base box will be stored at ~/.vagrant.d/ and copied to the folder you ran vagrant up command from in a hidden folder named .vagrant. This is what allows vagrant to create a VM and destroy it quickly and without having to download the large base box again.

Current versions
Ubuntu LTS Settler Version Homestead Version Branch Status

Developing Homestead

To keep any in-development changes separate from other Homestead installations, create a new project and install Homestead from composer, forcing it to use a git checkout.

After it's complete, vendor/laravel/homestead will be a git checkout and can be used normally.
