README

Lara-cms-lite was created to allow some users to add and manage content on predefined business application pages in intranet, this avoids having to modify the application source code to change a text on a home page or other. We could also use this package to add a news-style page or blog to existing application.

Installation

Laravel from 6.x to 12.x are supported.

You can install the package via composer:

composer require fbollon/lara-cms-lite

Publish assets, config and views

• tinymce to public/vendor/tinymce
• lara-cms-lite config file and adjust values if needed in config/lara-cms-lite.php based on comments
• lara-cms-lite views to views/vendor/lara-cms-lite

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Fbollon\LaraCmsLite\LaraCmsLiteServiceProvider"

Or publish by tags

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Fbollon\LaraCmsLite\LaraCmsLiteServiceProvider" --tag=public

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Fbollon\LaraCmsLite\LaraCmsLiteServiceProvider" --tag=config

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Fbollon\LaraCmsLite\LaraCmsLiteServiceProvider" --tag=views

To force publishing add --force flag.

Create required tables

php artisan migrate

A table named 'contents' will be created, if a table with the same name already exists in your app change value of 'table' in config/lara-cms-lite.php

Authorization

Add 1 method canManageLaraCmsLiteContent() to your \App\User file with your own logic

Define a gate in your App\Providers\AuthServiceProvider

    /**
     * Register any authentication / authorization services.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function boot()
    {
        $this->registerPolicies();

        Gate::define('lara-cms-lite-manage', function ($user) {
            return $user->canManageLaraCmsLiteContent();
        });

    }

Usage

Visit your application url : http://yourApplication/contents to start creating and managing content .

To display content in existing views of your application

In you default layout add this where you want to display content in your layout

@if (!empty($contents) && count($contents))
@include('lara-cms-lite::layouts.partials.contents')
@endif

Depending where you allow users to add content in yours methods controller add

// import model 
use Fbollon\LaraCmsLite\Models\Content;

// for each method you allow to display content
public function xxx()
{
    // get content 
    $contents = Content::getContextualContent();

    // and send content to the view
    return view('xxx.xxx', compact('contents'));
}
