BackPack-Installer
==================

[](#backpack-installer)

Simple installer for [BackPack](https://github.com/WhatDaFox/BackPack).

Inspired by [Laravel Installer](https://github.com/laravel/installer)

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

To generate boilerplate for your new PHP package, just execute the command:

```
backpack new PackageName --namespace="Package"

```

The `namespace` option defaults to `BackPack`.

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

[](#installation)

Install this package as a global dependency:

```
composer global require whatdafox/backpack-installer

```

You may want to add `~/.composer/vendor/bin` to your `PATH`

Contribute
----------

[](#contribute)

Feel free to contribute to this project, the goal is to have a tool to quickly generate PHP packages.

The next would be to create framework related providers with an option, ex.: a `PackageServiceProvider` for Laravel Framework.
