Download the PHP package thanosalexander/activity without Composer

Activities tracking for Laravel

Tracks activities fired when specific types happened.

Installation

To get the latest version of Activities simply require it in your composer.json file.

"thanosalexander/activity":"~1.0"

You'll then need to run composer install to download it and have the autoloader updated.

Once Activities is installed you need to register the service provider with the application. Open up config/app.php and find the providers key.

'providers' => array(
    ...
    ...
    \Thanosalexander\Activity\ActivityServiceProvider::class,

)

Activities also ships with two facades which provides the static syntax for creating activities. You can register the facade in the aliases key of your config/app.php file.

'aliases' => array(

    ...
    ..

    'Activity' => \Thanosalexander\Activity\Facades\Activity::class,
    'Type' => \Thanosalexander\Activity\Facades\Type::class

)

Publish the configurations

Run this on the command line from the root of your project:

$ php artisan vendor:publish

A configuration file will be publish to config/activities.php Also the migrations will be published into migrations folder!

Run the migrations

Activities package comes with two tables, activities_types and activities. Just go to terminal and run

$ php artisan migrate

Now the tables are created!
