Magazine — Sane Magento Packaging

Magazine helps you automatically package extensions for Magento 1.x in a sane manner. Magazine uses the cannibalised Magento core classes to build you a fully-compliant Magento package in seconds.

Requirements

Magazine requires PHP version 5.1.2 or greater.

Installation

The easiest way to get started with Magazine is use Composer. You can easily install Magazine system-wide with the following command:

composer global require "mridang/magazine=*"

Make sure you have ~/.composer/vendor/bin/ in your PATH.

Or alternatively, include a dependency for mridang/magazine in your composer.json file. For example:

{
    "require-dev": {
        "mridang/magazine": "0.*"
    }
}

You will then be able to run Magazine from the vendor bin directory:

./vendor/bin/magazine -h

You can also download the Magazine source and run the magazine command directly from the Git checkout:

git clone git://github.com/mridang/magazine.git
cd magazine
php bin/magazine -h

Usage

In order to move towards automated packaging, you'll need to create a package.json file in your extension's directory. The foarmat of this JSON file closely matches that of the XML file generated by Magento's packager and bundles in the extension package.

Most the fields are self-explanatory but the include paths must be carefully configured.
