##Requirements

PHP >= 5.4.0 (Entrust requires 5.4, this is an increase over Laravel's 5.3.7 requirement)
MCrypt PHP Extension

##How to install

Step 1: Get the code

Option 1: Git Clone

git clone git://github.com/andrew13/Laravel-4-Bootstrap-Starter-Site.git laravel

Option 2: Download the repository

https://github.com/andrew13/Laravel-4-Bootstrap-Starter-Site/archive/master.zip

Step 2: Use Composer to install dependencies

Step 1: Get the code

Option 1: Composer is not installed globally

cd laravel
curl -s http://getcomposer.org/installer | php
php composer.phar install

Option 2: Composer is installed globally

cd laravel
composer install

If you haven't already, you might want to make composer be installed globally for future ease of use.

Step 3: Configure Database

Now that you have the Laravel 4 installed, you need to create a database for it and update the file app/config/database.php

Step 4: Configure Mailer

Set the address and name from the from array in config/mail.php. Those will be used to send account confirmation and password reset emails to the users. If you don't set that registration will fail because it cannot send the confirmation email.

Step 5: Populate Database

Run these commands to create and populate Users table:

php artisan migrate:install
php artisan migrate
php artisan db:seed

Step 6: Make sure app/storage is writable by your web server.

If permissions are set correctly:

chmod -R 775 app/storage

Should work, if not try

chmod -R 777 app/storage

Step 7: Start Page

User login with commenting permission

Navigate to your Laravel 4 website and login at /user/login:

username : user
password : user

Create a new user at /user/create

Admin login

Navigate to /admin

username: admin
password: admin

Included Package Information

Confide Authentication Solution

Used for the user auth and registration. In general for user controllers you'll want to use something like the following:

<?php

use Zizaco\Confide\ConfideUser;

class User extends ConfideUser {

}

For full usage see Zizaco/Confide Documentation

Entrust Role Solution

Entrust provides a flexible way to add Role-based Permissions to Laravel4.

<?php

use Zizaco\Entrust\EntrustRole;

class Role extends EntrustRole
{

}

For full usage see Zizaco/Entrust Documentation

Ardent - Used for handling repetitive validation tasks.

Self-validating, secure and smart models for Laravel 4's Eloquent ORM

For full usage see Ardent Documentation

For full usage see PowerPack Documentation

Expressive Date

A fluent extension to PHPs DateTime class.

<?php

$date = new ExpressiveDate;

$date->minusOneDay();

echo $date->getRelativeDate(); // 1 day ago

$date->addOneWeek();

echo $date->getShortDate(); // Jan 31, 2012

For full usage see Using Expressive Date by Jason Lewis

Basset

A Better Asset Management package for Laravel.

Adding assets in the configuration file config/packages/jasonlewis/basset/config.php

'collections' => array(
        'public-css' => function($collection)
        {
            $collection->add('assets/css/bootstrap.min.css');
            $collection->add('assets/css/bootstrap-responsive.min.css');
        },
    ),

Compiling assets

$ php artisan basset:compile

For full usage see Using Basset by Jason Lewis

Presenter

Simple presenter to wrap and render objects. Think of it of a way to modify an asset for the view layer only. Control the presentation in the presentation layer not in the model.

The core idea is the relationship between two classes: your model full of data and a presenter which works as a sort of wrapper to help with your views. For instance, if you have a User object you might have a UserPresenter presenter to go with it. To use it all you do is $userObject = new UserPresenter($userObject);. The $userObject will function the same unless a method is called that is a member of the UserPresenter. Another way to think of it is that any call that doesn't exist in the UserPresenter falls through to the original object.
