Lion CLI was created to quickly spin up boiler-plate packages for gvsu-webteam development. It was built on [Laravel-Zero](https://laravel-zero.com/).

Install
-------

[](#install)

```
composer global require justinwickenheiser/lion-cli
```

Make sure your composer's global bin directory is in your PATH by adding the following line to your `.bash_profile`:

```
export PATH=$(composer global config bin-dir --absolute --quiet):$PATH
```

Check to see if the install worked. You may have to close and reopen the terminal.

```
lion -v
```

### Local Build

[](#local-build)

If you wish to clone the repo and do a local build, then you can run the following commands:

```
php lion app:build --build-version=0.0.0
ln -s ./builds/lion /usr/local/lib/lion-cli/bin/lion
sudo ln -s ../lib/lion-cli/bin/lion /usr/local/bin/lion
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

1. Create a new package

```
lion new
```

2. Use the artisan `make:` commands that you are familiar with.

```
lion make:model Hotel -cr
lion make:migration create_hotels_table
```

Package Structure
-----------------

[](#package-structure)

The structure of packages generated with lion mirrors that of Laravel projects. The exception is Laravel projects have /app, where the package will use /src.

```
package/
|
+-- config/
|
+-- database/
|   |
|   +-- migrations/
|
+-- resources/
|   |
|   +-- views/
|
+-- routes/
|      web.php
|
+-- src/
|   |
|   +-- Facades/
|   |
|   +-- Http/
|   |	|
|   |	+-- Controllers/
|   |
|   +-- Models/
