Laravel Heroku App Creator
==========================

[](#laravel-heroku-app-creator)

Creates an App on Heroku using the Heroku Quick Deployer, as well as setups simple AWS credentials, and generates an app key.

Normal Installation
-------------------

[](#normal-installation)

1. `composer require rootinc/laravel-heroku-app-creator`
2. run `php artisan vendor:publish --provider="RootInc\LaravelHerokuAppCreator\AppCreatorServiceProvider"` to install config file to `config/app_creator.php`
3. In our routes folder (most likely `web.php`), add

```
Route::get('/create-app', '\RootInc\LaravelHerokuAppCreator\AppCreator@route');
```

4. In our `.env` add `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_DEFAULT_REGION and AWS_BUCKET`. The access key and secret key is used to create S3 folders and IAM users, so be sure this programmatic user has the correct permissions. The `AWS_BUCKET` is where all the apps folders will get generated.
5. Also in our `.env` add `IAM_GROUP`, and `TEMPLATE_URL`. `IAM_GROUP` is the name of the group you want to assign the newly created AWS user for each Heroku app. `TEMPLATE_URL` is the url used with Heroku to create a new app. Make sure this repo has an app.json file. Ex: `TEMPLATE_URL=https://github.com/rootinc/laravel-heroku-app-creator/tree/master`.

Routing
-------

[](#routing)

`Route::get('/create-app', '\RootInc\LaravelHerokuAppCreator\AppCreator@route');` First parameter can be wherever you want to route the app creator route. Change as you would like.
