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": ">=7.0.0",
            "konekt/concord": ">=0.9.10"
        },
        "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.
