Package installer for Uccello
=============================

[](#package-installer-for-uccello)

This package allows you to install new composer packages directly from the Uccello interface.

It uses the PHP class [ZipArchive](https://www.php.net/manual/fr/class.ziparchive.php) and requires the PECL zip extension >= 1.1.0.

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

[](#installation)

```
composer require uccello/package-installer

```

**Warning:** If you don't want to have problems with git, consider adding the followind lines to `.gitignore` file located at the root of your Uccello project:

```
/packages/*
!/packages/.gitkeep

```

### Custom locale packages directory

[](#custom-locale-packages-directory)

If you want to use another directory instead of `packages`, add the following lines to `config/uccello.php` file:

```
...
'packages' => [
	'local_directory' => 'packages', // Replace 'packages' by your directory path
],
```

Don't forget to change the directory's name into `.gitignore` file too.

Add the form in a page
----------------------

[](#add-the-form-in-a-page)

It is possible to easily add the package upload form in the page of your choice.

**Warning:** The user must have `admin` rights on the `package-install` module to be able to see the form and execute the installation.

You can add the following code in a Blade page:

```
@include('package-installer::partials.package_upload_form')

```
