[WIP] Create Install Command

[AlexJump24]

Currently WIP as need to prompt for the configuration values if the user says yes to configuring Cachet.

One thing I'm not 100% sure the best approach for is configuring a secondary connection, incase you want to the migrations separate to your main database. Something I'd probably always want to do given the potential for table name clashes etc.

I wasn't sure if either to define getConnectionName() on each model which I think is the approach Laravel Passport takes, or extends the base model and defining on there and having all models extend the internal base model. Or there is probably an even better idea 😄

I've also moved the database settings from the seeder to the migration as it was kind of duplicating the logic, if this is not ok I can revert. Same with moving things from the testbench.yaml as felt it may as well be in the install command now other than the Sqlite file which would be needed for Testbench.

Once the configuration values are set up I am not sure what else would then be needed as its a bit different now given its composer required into applications rather than a standalone Laravel application.

Hopefully this is all ok so far!

@AlexJump24 I think some of the options we ask for don't need to be required. For example:

• About
• Refresh Rate

And maybe the attribute can have two properties; required and default?

[AlexJump24]

sure 👍🏼 @jbrooksuk

Did you have any preference on the following for supporting a separate connection.

Hmm, I think I'd use the method that Pulse uses, where it has a connection config which I believe fallsback to the default.

Hey @AlexJump24, how's this going?

[AlexJump24]

Hi @jbrooksuk sorry I totally missed this message, I have been unfortunately very busy so have been unable to look into this, I am hoping with the Xmas break coming up that I'll have some time to address the latest feedback for you 🙂

[jbrooksuk]

@AlexJump24 no problem! Enjoy Christmas and I hope to see your future contributions 🫶

By the way @AlexJump24, this command can also optionally call cachet:make:user to finish the setup process 👌
