Lavender is an Open Source E-Commerce Framework built on top of Laravel 5.
Note: Lavender is in active development and NOT ready for production.
Step 1: Install Lavender with Composer.
Avoid installing lavender in your web server's public directory. Instead create a symlink on lavender/public as your public root.
Run composer to create the lavender application:
composer create-project lavender-commerce/lavender
Set up your environment config file:
lavender/.env
Create the first round of migrations. This command reads the definitions in config/entity.php and compares it to your database.
php artisan migrate:entity
Run your newly created migration file:
php artisan migrate
Install lavender's dependencies (default store and theme):
php artisan db:seed --class=InstallLavender
Create an admin account:
php artisan make:admin
php artisan db:seed --class=SampleData
That's it!
