This package is a fork of [Laravel Module Installer](https://github.com/joshbrw/laravel-module-installer) to work with Theme packages. It allows installation of standalone Theme package into the `themes/` directory instead of `vendor/`.

For example if your Theme package name is `hexadog/admin-theme` then the package will be installed into `themes/hexadog/admin` directory.

You can specify an alternate directory by including a `theme-dir` in the extra data in your composer.json file:

```
"extra": {
    "theme-dir": "custom"
}

```

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

[](#installation)

1. Ensure you have the `type` set to `laravel-theme` in your theme's `composer.json`
2. Require this package: `composer require hexadog/laravel-theme-installer`
3. Require your bespoke theme using Composer

Notes
-----

[](#notes)

When working on a theme that is version controlled within an app that is also version controlled, you have to commit and push from inside the Theme directory and then `composer update` within the app itself to ensure that the latest version of your theme (dependant upon constraint) is specified in your composer.lock file.
