Create A Module

Creating An In-app Module

1. Create the module folder app/Modules/Demo

2. Create the file app/Modules/Demo/Providers/ModuleServiceProvider.php:

   namespace App\Modules\Demo\Providers;
   
   use Konekt\Concord\AbstractModuleServiceProvider;
   
   class ModuleServiceProvider extends AbstractModuleServiceProvider
   {
   }

3. Create app/Modules/Demo/resources/manifest.php:

   <?php
   
   return [
       'name'    => 'Demo App Module',
       'version' => '1.3.9'
   ];

4. Add the module to config/concord.php:

   <?php
   
   return [
       'modules' => [
           App\Modules\Demo\Providers\ModuleServiceProvider::class,
       ]
   ];

Now if you run the php artisan concord:modules command it shows the newly added module:

+----+------------------+--------+---------+------+-------------------+
| #  | Name             | Kind   | Version | Id   | Namespace         |
+----+------------------+--------+---------+------+-------------------+
| 1. | Demo App Module  | Module | 1.3.9   | demo | App\Modules\Demo  |
+----+------------------+--------+---------+------+-------------------+

Creating An External Module (With Git And Composer)

1. Init a git repo in an empty folder: git init .

2. Add composer.json:

   {
       "name": "vendor/mymodule",
       "description": "My Module Rulez",
       "type": "library",
       "require": {
           "php": "^7.2",
           "konekt/concord": "^1.5"
       },
       "autoload": {
           "psr-4": { "Vendor\\MyModule\\": "src/" }
       }
   }

3. Create the file src/Providers/ModuleServiceProvider.php:

   namespace Vendor\MyModule\Providers;
   
   use Konekt\Concord\BaseModuleServiceProvider;
   
   class ModuleServiceProvider extends BaseModuleServiceProvider
   {
   }

4. Create src/resources/manifest.php:

   <?php
   
   return [
      'name'    => 'My Module',
      'version' => '1.0.0'
   ];

5. Commit all the stuff, and publish it (github and packagist if it's open source)

6. In the host application: composer require vendor/mymodule

7. Add the module to config/concord.php:

   <?php
   
   return [
      'modules' => [
          Vendor\MyModule\Providers\ModuleServiceProvider::class,
      ]
   ];

You're done.
