This package provides discussison forum for Laravel applications. This is based on a Laravel forum tutorial I saw a while ago. I wanted to put it into a pacakge for re-use and add some additional features such as receiving notifications for my own needs.

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

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer and publish assets:

```
composer require seongbae/discuss
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Seongbae\Discuss\DiscussServiceProvider"
```

When you publish files, the config/discuss.php config file will be generated. In this file, you can set pagination count, user image field, and other various configurations for your application.

The package uses bootstrap-vue component. Install it with following command:

```
npm install bootstrap-vue
```

Update your app.js to include following code:

```
import { BootstrapVue } from 'bootstrap-vue'
Vue.component('thread', require('./components/Thread.vue').default);
Vue.component('reply', require('./components/Reply.vue').default);
Vue.component('channel-subscribe', require('./components/ChannelSubscribe.vue').default);
Vue.use(BootstrapVue)
```

Then run npm commands:

```
npm install
npm run dev
```
