Larinterface help you to be more productive by generating automaticaly all the interface in your Laravel project by using PHP and black magic.

Composer

To install Larinterface using composer, run this command:

    composer require bsharp/larinterface

Setup

After running composer update, open your Laravel config file located at config/app.php and add the following in the $providers array.

    Bsharp\Larinterface\LarinterfaceServiceProvider::class

Publish

To add larinterface config file to your app, use the vendor:publish artisan command

  php artisan vendor:publish

Configuration

Open the generated config/larinterface.php file and change the configuration to fits your needs.

Execution

Now Larinterface should work using the command:

  php artisan larinterface:generate

File watcher

Executing php artisan larinterface:generate each time after modifying one of your PHP Class is annoying so here is some ways to automate this behavior.

Using Laravel Elixir

You can create a gulp watcher, using elixir 3, to do that for you. Add this lines to your gulpfile:

#####If you generate the interfaces in the same directory than your classes:

    var gulp = require('gulp');
    var exec = require('gulp-exec');
    var Task = elixir.Task;
    
    var files = require('./storage/app/larinterface.json');
    var locked = false;
    
    elixir.extend('larinterface', function() {
    
      new Task('larinterface_generate', function () {
    
        if(locked === true) {
          return;
        }
    
        locked = true;
    
        var task = gulp.src('').pipe(exec('php artisan larinterface:generate'));
        task.on('end', function () {
          setTimeout(function () {
            locked = false;
            files = require('./storage/app/larinterface.json');
          }, 1000);
        });
    
        return task.pipe(exec.reporter({}));
      })
      .watch(files);
    });

#####If you generate the interface in a separate directory:

    var gulp = require('gulp');
    var exec = require('gulp-exec');
    var Task = elixir.Task;
    
    var files = require('./storage/app/larinterface.json');
    
    elixir.extend('larinterface', function() {
    
      new Task('larinterface_generate', function () {
    
        files = require('./storage/app/larinterface.json');
    
        return gulp.src('').pipe(exec('php artisan larinterface:generate')).pipe(exec.reporter({}));
      })
      .watch(files);
    });

You can now use mix.larinterface(); to execute Larinterface in Elixir !

Using PHPStorm or other JetBrain IDE:

First go to your settings and open Files Watchers

Then create a new Larinterface watcher and configure it as follow:
