📦 Installation

Install the package via Composer:

And the Facade:

'RemoteDocumentation' => Veiliglanceren\LaravelRemoteDocumentation\Facades\RemoteDocumentation::class,

⚡ Quick Usage

Fetch documentation and generate Blade file via command:

php artisan remote-docs:fetch vendor/repository README.md

This will:

• Fetch the README.md from GitHub vendor/repository
• Convert it to HTML
• Save it as a Blade file under resources/views/vendor/remote-documentation/vendor_repository.blade.php

Customize your layout

Override the default layout by publishing the views:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=remote-documentation-views

You can then edit resources/views/vendor/remote-documentation/layout.blade.php.

The following functions are available through the RemoteDocumentation facade.

All services are fully extensible and injectable for advanced use cases.

✅ Testing

Run the tests using PestPHP:

./vendor/bin/pest
