Getting started with Yii2-plugins-system
Yii2-plugins-system is designed to work out of the box. It means that installation requires minimal steps. Only one configuration step should be taken and you are ready to have plugin system on your Yii2 website.
1. Download
Yii2-plugins-system can be installed using composer. Run following command to download and install Yii2-plugins-system:
composer require "loveorigami/yii2-plugins-system": "*"
2. Update database schema
The last thing you need to do is updating your database schema by applying the
migrations. Make sure that you have properly configured db
application component
and run the following command:
$ php yii migrate/up --migrationPath=@vendor/loveorigami/yii2-plugins-system/migrations
3. Configure application
Let's start with defining module in @backend/config/main.php
:
'modules' => [
'plugins' => [
'class' => 'lo\plugins\Module',
'pluginsDir'=>[
'@lo/plugins/plugins', // default dir with core plugins
// '@common/plugins', // dir with our plugins
]
],
],
That's all, now you have module installed and configured in advanced template.
Next, open @frontend/config/main.php
and add following:
'bootstrap' => ['log', 'plugins'],
...
'components' => [
'plugins' => [
'class' => 'lo\plugins\components\EventBootstrap',
'appId' => 'frontend'
],
...
]
Also do the same thing with @backend/config/main.php
:
'bootstrap' => ['log', 'plugins'],
...
'components' => [
'plugins' => [
'class' => 'lo\plugins\components\EventBootstrap',
'appId' => 'backend'
],
...
]
