How to create and publish a Laravel package on packagist
========================================================

[](#how-to-create-and-publish-a-laravel-package-on-packagist)

A Laravel package is a set of reusable classes created to add extra functionality to a Laravel website. In clearer terms, a package is to Laravel, what plugins are to WordPress. The primary goal of Laravel packages is to reduce development time by making reusable features into a set of standalone classes that can be used within any Laravel project.

[View tutorial](https://pusher.com/tutorials/publish-laravel-packagist)

Getting Started
---------------

[](#getting-started)

- Create a fresh laravel package

```
composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel packagetestapp

```

- change directory to the new folder

```
cd packagetestapp

```

- When it's done you need to configure your env file and set your app key and other necessary details. In your terminal type:

```
cp .env.example .env

```

- generate the app key

```
php artisan key:generate

```

- create a folder called `packages`, then create a new folder called samuelayo.

> Note that you can subtitute samuelayo with your own vendor name. Be sure to change the refrence in every other aspect of the app

- clone this repository to the newly created folder

```
git clone https://github.com/samuelayo/contact-form-package.git packages/samuelayo/contactform

```

- Tell Laravel how to load our package and use it's functions, so inside the root of your Laravel app in the composer.json add this code:

```

"autoload": {
        "classmap": [
            "database/seeds",
            "database/factories"
        ],
        "psr-4": {
            "Samuelayo\\Contactform\\": "packages/samuelayo/contactform/src",
            "App\\": "app/"
        }
    },
    "autoload-dev": {
        "psr-4": {
            "Samuelayo\\Contactform\\": "packages/samuelayo/contactform/src",
            "Tests\\": "tests/"
        }
    },

```

- Dump the composer autoloader

```
composer dump-autoload

```

- Next, we need to add our new Service Provider in our `config/app.php` inside the `providers` array:

```
'providers' => [
         ...,
            App\Providers\RouteServiceProvider::class,
            // Our new package class
            Samuelayo\Contactform\ContactFormServiceProvider::class,
        ],

```

- Migrate the database tables

```
php artisan migrate

```

And finally, start the application by running:

```
php artisan serve

```

If you want to include the project as a package to your app, run:

```
composer require samuelayo/contactform

```
