I'm using Laravel to build a package which will include some Admin functionality and will include some other packages.
I have included a package which has migrations and a config file, But how do I copy those to the correct folder in Laravel. The package has it's own ServiceProvider but How do I call that from my package?
I'm using the following to register the package in my package.
class CldServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider {
public function register()
{
$this->app->register(MediaLibraryServiceProvider::class);
}
}
I've tried
php artisan vendor:publish
But it says there's nothing to publish. Because it's only looking at the packages for this Laravel installation, and not the nested packages.
In my case I found I needed to include MY package in the application I was working on. This step was not included in the original tutorial I followed.
So in composer.json
in the main app:
"repositories": [
{
"type": "path",
"url": "packages/namespace/name",
"options": {
"symlink": true
}
}
],
"require": {
// ...
"namespace/name": "dev-master"
},
And then we run this command from main folder:
composer update
After that running php artisan vendor:publish
will include the option to publish the sub packages.
