TheLaravel Package Manager provides fast, yet simple management of packages for your Laravel project.It allows you to quickly install a package via composer, if necessary, and then automatically register any or all Service Providers and Facades provided by the package.

To install, first install with composer:

composer require patinthehat/laravel-package-manager

Then, register the service provider by editingconfig/app.php and adding:

LaravelPackageManager\LaravelPackageManagerServiceProvider::class,

to the$providers array.

That's it! You now have access to the package manager commands throughartisan.

To install (via composer) a package and register any service providers or Facades it provides, use thepackage:require command:

package:require <package-name> [-r|--register-only] [-d|--dev]

The--register-only option skips the composer installation step.The--dev option allows you to install the package in your development dependencies.

To unregister service providers and facades associated with a package, use thepackage:unregister command:

package:unregister <package-name>

You will be prompted for each Service Provider and Facade, and asked if you would like to unregister it. This does not remove the package from yourvendor/ directory.
