laravel-nested-menu

Fetches menu items from a JSON URL specified in .env (MENU_ITEMS_URL) on an hourly basis. You may also run a manual fetch using artisan fetch:menu-items. Only items which are not currently stored in the database will be imported.

Setting Up

Laravel Sail is used for local development. Sail uses Docker so you will need to make sure you have that installed (specifically, Docker Desktop). The .env.example is already configured for Laravel Sail.

1. Clone the repo and navigate to it in your terminal.
2. Run this in your terminal to pull in the composer dependencies:

docker run --rm \
    -u "$(id -u):$(id -g)" \
    -v $(pwd):/opt \
    -w /opt \
    laravelsail/php80-composer:latest \
    composer install --ignore-platform-reqs

3. Run sail up (add -d for detached mode)
4. Run a frontend build using sail yarn prod
5. Run a manual fetch using sail artisan fetch:menu-items

You'll need to run a queue worker in order to have the items be fetched hourly.
