Yes, there is a way to install global packages for all Laravel Nova custom tools. You can achieve this by creating a Composer package that includes the required global packages as dependencies.
Here are the steps to follow:
- Create a new Composer package by running the following command in your terminal:
composer init
-
Fill in the required information for your package, such as name, description, and version.
-
Open the
composer.jsonfile of your package and add the global packages you want to include as dependencies. For example, if you want to include thelaravel/novapackage, add it to therequiresection like this:
"require": {
"laravel/nova": "^3.0"
}
- Save the
composer.jsonfile and run the following command to install the dependencies:
composer install
-
Publish your package to a package repository, such as Packagist, so that it can be easily installed in other projects.
-
In your Laravel Nova custom tools, require your package as a dependency by adding it to the
composer.jsonfile of your custom tool. For example:
"require": {
"your-package-name": "^1.0"
}
- Run
composer updatein your custom tool's directory to install the package.
By following these steps, you can create a Composer package that includes the global packages you need for all your Laravel Nova custom tools. This way, you only need to install the package once, and it will be available in all your custom tools.
Note: Make sure to replace "your-package-name" with the actual name of your Composer package.
