Laravel Package Manager
-----------------------

[](#laravel-package-manager)

---

The `Laravel Package Manager` provides fast, yet simple management of packages for your Laravel project. It allows you to quickly install a package via composer, if necessary, and then automatically register any or all Service Providers and Facades provided by the package.

---

### Installation

[](#installation)

---

To install, first install with composer:

```
composer require patinthehat/laravel-package-manager

```

Then, register the service provider by editing `config/app.php` and adding:

```
LaravelPackageManager\LaravelPackageManagerServiceProvider::class,

```

to the `$providers` array.

That's it! You now have access to the package manager commands through `artisan`.

---

### Usage

[](#usage)

---

To install (via composer) a package and register any service providers or Facades it provides, use the `package:require` command:

```
package:require  [-r|--register-only] [-d|--dev]

```

The `--register-only` option skips the composer installation step. The `--dev` option allows you to install the package in your development dependencies.

To unregister service providers and facades associated with a package, use the `package:unregister` command:

```
package:unregister

```

You will be prompted for each Service Provider and Facade, and asked if you would like to unregister it. This does not remove the package from your `vendor/` directory.

---

### License

[](#license)

---

The `Laravel Package Manager` is open source software, available under the [MIT License](LICENSE).
