adds configurable workbench management commands to laravel

### Composer Configuration

[](#composer-configuration)

Include the artistan workbench package as a dependency in your `composer.json` [Packagist](https://packagist.org/packages/artistan/workbench):

```
"require-dev": {
    "artistan/workbench": "*"
},

```

### Installation

[](#installation)

Once you update your composer configuration, run `composer install` to download the dependencies.

Add a ServiceProvider to your providers array in `app/config/app.php`:

```
'providers' => array(

	'Artistan\Workbench\WorkbenchServiceProvider',

)

Finally, publish the configuration files via `php artisan config:publish artistan/workbench`.

```

### Configuration

[](#configuration)

Once you have published the configuration files, you can add your workbench package options to the config file in `app/config/packages/artistan/workbench/config.php`.

```
/*
 * config for commands workbench:*
 */
'packages'=>[
    'vendor/package'=>[
        'git'=>'git@github.com:vendor/devPackage.git',
        'remotes'=>[
            'upstream'=>'git@github.com:vendor/masterPackage.git',
            'upstream2'=>'git@github.com:vendor/masterPackage.git',
        ]
    ],
]

```

### Usage

[](#usage)

Command Line Interface

```
php artisan workbench:install

    OPTIONS:
        -d          : destroy workbench directory and start over from scratch
        -u          : fetch the remote repositories
        -m{string}  : merge {remote name} with this branch locally
        -c          : skip composer install/update
        -b          : skip bower install
        -p          : skip publishing assets and configs
