Christopher Pitt:
Making Dependable #2 (Series)
May 27, 2015 @ 14:25:01

Christopher Pitt has posted the second part of his series about creating "Dependable", a Laravel-based application with a focus on Composer use and customization. In part one he laid the foundation, creating a new project, database and setting up migrations to create the tables. In part two he builds on this and creates additional functionality to store a GitHub user's repositories.

One of the ideas we’ve had is to create an application; which can build a custom Composer dependency map, and deploy that to a new server. It would also be great if there was an interface for deciding which dependencies are included, and a unique URL for each installation.

He starts with a brief mention of testing and why he hasn't included that in his current work. Then he gets into the new models for storing repositories and the migration to create the matching table. He also includes the code that will be needed to link a Developer to a Repository. He finishes the post with an endpoint that can be called to refresh the data from GitHub and pull the repository information down and populate it into the database.
