Chronos CMS
===========

[](#chronos-cms)

---

A developer friendly headless CMS built by [Further](https://gofurther.digital).

---

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

It's as easy as:

```
composer require further/chronos

```

After composer has run add following line to the providers\[\] array in `app/config/app.php`:

```
...
Chronos\ChronosServiceProvider::class,
...
```

### Local repositories

[](#local-repositories)

Chronos depends on a forked legacy package which is not available on Packagist. To install it, add the following to your composer.json:

```
"repositories": [
    {
        "type": "vcs",
        "url": "https://github.com/teamfurther/laravelcollective-html"
    }
],
```

### Install dependencies

[](#install-dependencies)

You also need to add the service providers for all the dependencies in `app/config/app.php`:

```
...
Collective\Html\HtmlServiceProvider::class,
Intervention\Image\ImageServiceProvider::class,
Lavary\Menu\ServiceProvider::class,
...
```

And also add the class aliases in the `$aliases[]` array:

```
...
'Form' => Collective\Html\FormFacade::class,
'Html' => Collective\Html\HtmlFacade::class,
'Image' => Intervention\Image\Facades\Image::class,
'Menu' => Lavary\Menu\Facade::class,
...
```

### Publish assets

[](#publish-assets)

Next we need to publish all the assets belonging to Chronos:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=public

```

Note 1: if you would like to overwrite existing files, use the --force switch Note 2: if you wish to only publish Chronos assets, you might want to use the --provider flag.

### Prepare User model

[](#prepare-user-model)

Next we need to prepare the User model to work with Chronos.

1. Add the ChronosUser trait to our model:

```
...
use ChronosUser;
...
```

2. Next, add some values to the appends\[\] array:

```
...
/**
 * The accessors to append to the model's array form.
 *
 * @var array
 */
protected $appends = ['endpoints', 'name'];
...
```

### Set APP\_URL

[](#set-app_url)

Chronos requires you to set APP\_URL in your .env file

```
APP_URL=https://chronos.ro

```

### Run migrations

[](#run-migrations)

Almost done. We need to run the migrations and seed our database:

```
php artisan migrate
php artisan db:seed --class=\\Chronos\\Database\\Seeders\\DatabaseSeeder

```

### Set up task scheduling

[](#set-up-task-scheduling)

Chronos runs a couple of tasks in the background, so you will need to set up task scheduling by adding the following to your Cron entries on your server:

```
* * * * * php /path-to-your-project/artisan schedule:run >> /dev/null 2>&1

```

### Install and configure Sanctum

[](#install-and-configure-sanctum)

1. Publish Sanctum configuration

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Laravel\Sanctum\SanctumServiceProvider"

```

2. Run migration if you haven't done so yet

```
php artisan migrate

```
