Laravel Application Installer Wizard

This is the core installer package that provides a plugin-based installation wizard for Laravel 11+ applications. Instead of manually editing .env files and running commands, your users click through a beautiful wizard that configures everything automatically.

To learn all about it, head over to the extensive documentation.

Here are a few short examples of what you can do:

// Configure your installation steps
'steps' => [
    \Olakunlevpn\Installer\Steps\RequirementsStep::class,
    \Olakunlevpn\Installer\Steps\PermissionsStep::class,
    \Olakunlevpn\Installer\Steps\EnvironmentStep::class,
    \Olakunlevpn\Installer\Steps\InstallingStep::class,
],

Customize validation requirements:

'requirements' => [
    'php' => '8.2',
    'extensions' => [
        'pdo', 'mbstring', 'openssl', 'curl'
    ],
],

Check specific folder permissions:

'permissions' => [
    'storage/framework/' => '775',
    'storage/logs/' => '775',
    'bootstrap/cache/' => '775',
],

The installer uses Livewire 3/4 for reactive components and Tailwind CSS via CDN. Everything is dark mode ready out of the box.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require olakunlevpn/laravel-installer

Publish the configuration file:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=laravel-installer-config

That's it! Visit /install in your browser to see the installation wizard.

You can find the full installation instructions in our documentation.

Usage

The installer works out of the box with zero configuration. Simply visit /install to start the installation process.

Creating Custom Steps

Extend the installer with custom steps:

use Olakunlevpn\Installer\Steps\BaseStep;

class CustomStep extends BaseStep
{
    protected string $id = 'custom';
    protected string $title = 'Custom Configuration';
    protected int $sort = 25;

    public function render()
    {
        return view('custom-step');
    }
}

Add your custom step to the configuration:

'steps' => [
    // ... other steps
    \App\Installer\Steps\CustomStep::class,
],

Customization

Publish views to customize the UI:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=laravel-installer-views

Publish translations:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=laravel-installer-translations

Learn more about customization in the documentation.

Official Plugins

Extend the installer with official plugin packages:

• laravel-installer-welcome - Customizable welcome screen with branding
• laravel-installer-license - License verification via API
• laravel-installer-account - Admin account creation
