Download the PHP
package mercuryseries/laravel-helpers without Composer
On this page you can find all versions of the php package
mercuryseries/laravel-helpers. It is possible to download/install
these versions without Composer. Possible dependencies are resolved
automatically.
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.
Before using Laravel I was a big fan of Ruby on Rails and the feature that I loved the most about Ruby on Rails was the ability to create a helper method (in a module) and being able to call it like a global method.
Pretty cool isn't it?
Now as you might guess I want to have the same thing in Laravel.
Oh I should have said I have the same thing now with Laravel :)
Disclaimer: Of course you can create a folder with many files helpers or just one global file helper and autoload it with Composer but I rather prefer to create a class and it's much more clear when testing. So everyone may not like it!
Here are the steps if you also want it:
Install the package through Composer
Register the package service provider in by adding:
Create a directory in your folder.
Now you can create a directory in your folder.
Add some classes with your helper methods
PS: All helper methods need to be static.
Have fun now as me by using your helper methods
You can also call it with:
Don't forget to change accordingly to your application's root namespace. But that is exactly what I want to avoid (that long stuff).
More Configuration?
The folder name and the namespace can be easily changed via the configuration file. Just publish it and edit it as you want:
Requiresphp Version
>=7.0.0 illuminate/support Version
~5.0|~6.0|~7.0|~8.0

Before you can download the PHP files, the dependencies should be resolved. This can take some minutes. Please be patient.
