```
return [
    'barryvdh/laravel-ide-helper' => [
        'composer' => [
            'version' => '^3.1',
            'commands' => [
                'post-update-cmd' => [
                    'artisan' => [
                        ['command' => 'ide-helper:generate', 'after' => 'Illuminate\\Foundation\\ComposerScripts::postInstall'],
                        ['command' => 'ide-helper:meta', 'after' => 'Illuminate\\Foundation\\ComposerScripts::postInstall']
                    ],
                    'shell' => [
                        // No shell commands for this package
                    ]
                ],
                'post-install-cmd' => [
                    'artisan' => [
                        ['command' => 'ide-helper:generate', 'after' => 'Illuminate\\Foundation\\ComposerScripts::postInstall'],
                        ['command' => 'ide-helper:meta', 'after' => 'Illuminate\\Foundation\\ComposerScripts::postInstall']
                    ],
                ]
            ],
        ],
        'dev' => true,
        'service_providers' => [
            \Barryvdh\LaravelIdeHelper\IdeHelperServiceProvider::class,
        ],
        'aliases' => [
            // no aliases for this package
        ]
    ],
];
```

The basic anatomy of the array is as follows:

- Composer: This is explained below
- Dev: is the package only needed for the development environment
- Service provider: specify all service providers needed for this package
- Aliases: specify all aliases needed for this package

With the composer key you can specify the following keys:

- Version: You can add any version constraint supported by Composer.
- Commands: You can add commands to certain events in composer. A list of events can be found here: . Each event can have two keys: artisan and shell.
    - Artisan: an array with command (do not add php artisan) and a key after, which indicates after which command it should be executed.
    - Shell: an array with the command and after which command it should execute

### Execute commands for a package

[](#execute-commands-for-a-package)

This package provides the `bash php artisan development:command` command.

When you execute this command, you get the question for which package you want to execute a command. All the packages in the packages directory (made with the package Jeroen-G/packager) are listed. After the selection of the package you get the question which command you want to execute. After the selection of the command you can specify some arguments. After you executed the command the whole process starts again.
