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.

Voyager Frontend

The Missing Frontend for The Missing Laravel Admin.

This Laravel package adds frontend views, routes and assets to a Voyager project.

It comes with a basic structure for frontend layouts (eg. header, footer, etc) and theme assets using the Foundation framework.

Built by Pivotal Agency.

Prerequisites

Installation

1. Install Laravel + Voyager (Replace the $VARs with your own values)

2. Install Voyager Frontend

Any issues? See the troubleshooting section below.

'Got Cron'?

This is a just a reminder to setup the standard Laravel cron on your server. The Voyager Frontend package has a few scheduled tasks, so relies on the cron running.

Theme Development

SCSS & JS

When you're ready to start styling your frontend, you can use the following commands after making updates to SCSS and/or JS files:

Command Description
npm run watch Watches your /resources/assets for any changes and builds immediately
npm run dev Builds SCSS/JS on demand
npm run prod Builds SCSS/JS on demand, but this time, outputs minified results

Overriding Views

Let's say you want to update the layout of the frontend header:

  1. Create the directory resources/views/vendor/voyager-frontend
    • Any files you place in here will replace the default views that comes with this package
  2. Copy the respective file from vendor/pvtl/voyager-frontend/resources/views/ (in this case, the partials/header.blade.php) into the matching file structure and update

So now you'll have:

And any changes made to header.blade.php reflect automatically on the site.

Thumbnails / Image Resizing

This package comes with an automatic image resize function. When you reference an image in your front-end blade templates, simply call something like:

"CDN" your images

The function will output an absolute URL, where the hostname will be APP_URL - however you can add a ASSET_URL variable to your .env file to use a different hostname.

Search

Generating Indices

This module contains a scheduled job to regenerate indices which will run automatically once you setup jobs for Laravel. If you need to test and re-generate search indices you can manually run the command php artisan voyager-frontend:generate-search-indices.

Configuring Search (Using Laravel Scout)

By default this module includes "searching" the "Pages" and "Posts" Models out-of-the-box once you have defined the following variable in your .env file - check out the Laravel Scout documentation:

You can however extend and define your own "Searchable" Models to include in your search results by attaching the "Searchable" trait to them.

Then you'll be able to hook into the search config and merge your "Searchable" Models in with the config key (preferably using a Servie Provider): scout.tntsearch.searchableModels.

Your configuration file should contain values similar to this modules scout.php configuration:

Testing

You can test the Pvtl/Test package switching to the packages directory and running tests via composer scripts:
