Got a good PHP class? Is it only on GitHub, or
maybe it's just sitting around on your blog?
Stop that. Stop that right now.
Make it into a Composer package and host it on
Packagist.

project for you.

Edit /app/config/workbench.php and set your name and email. This
info is used later to populate the composer.json file.
PACKAGE GENERATION
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
1 Edit workbench config file

17.
Use Command Line Interface (CLI) to navigate to Laravel 4 root folder,
and then run:
Note that orangehill represents a vendor (company name, personal
name etc.), and walkthrough represents a package name.
PACKAGE GENERATION
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
2 Run CLI (Command Line Interface) command
php artisan workbench orangehill/walkthrough --resources

18.
Use your CLI to navigate to /workbench/orangehill/walkthrough and
verify that the package structure has been created.
PACKAGE GENERATION
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
3 Navigate to package directory

19.
Open /app/config/app.php to add a Service Provider to the end of the
providers array:
PACKAGE SETUP
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
4 Add a Service Provider
'providers' => array(
// --
'OrangehillWalkthroughWalkthroughServiceProvider',
),

20.
To create a main package class generate the file named
Walkthrough.php inside a path /workbench/orangehill/walkthrough/
src/Orangehill/Walkthrough/ with the following code inside:
PACKAGE SETUP
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
5 Create Main Package Class
<?php namespace OrangehillWalkthrough;
class Walkthrough {
public static function hello(){
return "What's up Zagreb!";
}
}

21.
Edit the Package Service Provider file /workbench/orangehill/
walkthrough/src/Orangehill/Walkthrough/
WalkthroughServiceProvider.php and make sure that the register
method looks like this:
PACKAGE SETUP
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
6 Register the new class with the Laravel’s IoC
Container
public function register()
{
$this->app['walkthrough'] = $this->app->share(function($app)
{
return new Walkthrough;
});
}

22.
Note: If your service provider cannot be found, run the php artisan
dump-autoload command from your application's root directory.
PACKAGE SETUP
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
6 NOTE!

23.
Although generating a facade is not necessary, Facade allows you to
do something like this:
FACADE GENERATION
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
echo Walkthrough::hello();

24.
Create a folder named Facades under following path /workbench/
orangehill/walkthrough/src/Orangehill/Walkthrough/
FACADE GENERATION
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
7 Create a Facades folder

25.
Inside the Facades folder create a file named Walkthrough.php with the
following content:
PACKAGE SETUP
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
8 Create a Facade class
<?php namespace OrangehillWalkthroughFacades;
use IlluminateSupportFacadesFacade;
class Walkthrough extends Facade {
protected static function getFacadeAccessor() { return
'walkthrough'; }
}

26.
Add the following to the register method of your Service Provider file:
This allows the facade to work without the adding it to the Alias array
in app/config/app.php
PACKAGE SETUP
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
9 Edit a register method of your
Service Provider file
$this->app->booting(function()
{
$loader = IlluminateFoundation
AliasLoader::getInstance();
$loader->alias('Walkthrough', 'OrangehillWalkthrough
FacadesWalkthrough');
});

27.
Edit your /app/routes.php file and add a route to test if a package
works:
BROWSER TEST
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
10 Edit a routes file
Route::get('/hello', function(){
echo Walkthrough::hello();
});

28.
If all went well you should see the output in your browser after visiting
the test URL:
BROWSER TEST
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
What's up Zagreb!

29.
First, let's modify the /workbench/orangehill/walkthrough/src/
Orangehill/Walkthrough/Walkthrough.php file to accept an optional
parameter and echo out a message that we can observe in our CLI:
ARTISAN CLI SUPPORT
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
11 Modify a main package class
public static function hello($verb = 'up'){
if (PHP_SAPI == 'cli') echo "What's $verb Zagreb?n";
return "What's up Zagreb?";
}

30.
Create a file WalkthroughCommand.php inside /workbench/
orangehill/walkthrough/src/Orangehill/Walkthrough/ folder with
following content (code is pretty much self-explanatory):
ARTISAN CLI SUPPORT
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
12 Create a Command class
<?php namespace OrangehillWalkthrough;
use IlluminateConsoleCommand;
use SymfonyComponentConsoleInputInputOption;
use SymfonyComponentConsoleInputInputArgument;
class WalkthroughCommand extends Command {

31.
ARTISAN CLI SUPPORT
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
12 Create a Command class
/**
* The console command name.
*
* @var string
*/
protected $name = 'walkthrough';
/**
* The console command description.
*
* @var string
*/
protected $description = 'Run the Walkthrough Package
hello() method from command line.';

32.
ARTISAN CLI SUPPORT
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
12 Create a Command class
/**
* Create a new command instance.
*
* @return void
*/
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
}

33.
ARTISAN CLI SUPPORT
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
12 Create a Command class
/**
* Execute the console command.
*
* @return void
*/
public function fire()
{
app('walkthrough')->hello($this->argument('verb'));
}

34.
ARTISAN CLI SUPPORT
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
12 Create a Command class
/**
* Get the console command arguments.
*
* @return array
*/
protected function getArguments()
{
return array(
array('verb', InputArgument::REQUIRED, 'verb'),
);
}
}

35.
Modify Service Provider file register method to include the following
code:
ARTISAN CLI SUPPORT
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
13 Modify Service Provider file register method
$this->app['command.walkthrough'] = $this->app-
>share(function($app)
{
return new WalkthroughCommand;
});
$this->commands('command.walkthrough');

36.
Run the test from CLI in your project root folder:
CLI TEST
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough

37.
If all went well:
CLI TEST
Laravel Workbench Walkthrough
What's cooking Zagreb!
