Creating an extension

Lets start create an extension, a Plugin in this case: [block:api-header] { "type": "basic", "title": "1. Create a extension" } [/block] [block:code] { "codes": [ { "code": "<?php namespace MyNamespace\\BarPlugin;\n\n\nuse Mascame\\Artificer\\Plugin\\AbstractPlugin;\n\n\nclass BarPlugin extends AbstractPlugin {\n\n /**\n * This will be called if the plugin is installed\n */\n public function boot()\n {\n // We will be able to do something here once the plugin is installed by the client \n }\n\n}", "language": "php", "name": "BarPlugin.php" } ] } [/block] [block:api-header] { "type": "basic", "title": "2. Adding the ServiceProvider" } [/block] The ServiceProvider **takes care of registering plugins & widgets** under a package namespace. You must extend *ArtificerExtensionServiceProvider* and indicate the *$package*. [block:callout] { "type": "info", "title": "What is $package?", "body": "You can add multiple extensions (plugins and/or widgets) in the same repository for convenience. That's why we need to unify them under a name, in this case that name is the *$package* property." } [/block] [block:code] { "codes": [ { "code": "<?php namespace MyNamespace\\BarPlugin;\n\nuse MyNamespace\\BarPlugin\\BarPlugin;\n\nclass BarPluginServiceProvider extends ArtificerExtensionServiceProvider {\n\n protected $package = 'my-namespace/bar-plugin';\n\n public function register()\n {\n $this->addPlugin(BarPlugin::class);\n }\n\n}\n", "language": "php", "name": "BarPluginServiceProvider.php" } ] } [/block] [block:callout] { "type": "info", "body": "Adds *addPlugin* & *addWidget* methods and hides the methods of ServiceProvider that must not be used. That will let us focus on what matters and avoid errors.", "title": "Extends ArtificerExtensionServiceProvider" } [/block] [block:api-header] { "type": "basic", "title": "3. Registering the ServiceProvider" } [/block] Now that we created the ServiceProvider lets register it: [block:code] { "codes": [ { "code": "'providers' => [\n Collective\\Html\\HtmlServiceProvider::class,\n Stolz\\Assets\\Laravel\\ServiceProvider::class,\n Mascame\\Artificer\\DefaultThemeServiceProvider::class,\n Mascame\\Artificer\\InstallServiceProvider::class,\n Mascame\\Artificer\\LoginPluginServiceProvider::class,\n Mascame\\Artificer\\ArtificerWidgetsServiceProvider::class,\n Mascame\\Artificer\\LogReaderPluginServiceProvider::class,\n \n MyNamespace\\BarPlugin\\BarPluginServiceProvider::class\n ],", "language": "text", "name": "config/admin/admin.php" } ] } [/block] We successfully created our first plugin!
