A Hydro CLI Tool.

This is a command-line tool that replaces the need to use Filament's Plugin Skeleton through GitHub by allowing local setup of your plugin from the start.

• PHP 8.0+

composer global require awcodes/hydro

composer global update awcodes/hydro

Make sure ~/.composer/vendor/bin is in your terminal's path.

cd ~/<working-directory>
hydro new AwesomePlugin

While the default actions Hydro provides are great, most users will want to customize at least a few of the steps. Thankfully, Hydro is built to be customized!

There are three ways to customize your usage of Hydro: command-line arguments or a config file.

Most users will want to set their preferred configuration options once and then never think about it again. That's best solved by creating a config file.

But if you find yourself needing to change the way you interact with Hydro on a project-by-project basis, you may also want to use the command-line parameters to customize Hydro when you're using it.

You can create a config file at ~/.hydro/config rather than pass the same arguments each time you create a new project.

The following command creates the file, if it doesn't exist, and edits it:

hydro edit-config

The config file contains the configuration parameters you can customize, and will be read on every usage of Hydro.

Any command-line parameters passed in will override Hydro's defaults and your config settings. See a full list of the parameters you can pass in.

• help or help-screen show the help screen

• edit-config edits your config file (and creates one if it doesn't exist)

  hydro edit-config

You can optionally pass one or more of these parameters every time you use Hydro. If you find yourself wanting to configure any of these settings every time you run Hydro, that's a perfect use for the config files.

• -e or --editor to define your editor command. Whatever is passed here will be run as $EDITOR . after creating the project.

  # runs "code ." in the project directory after creating the project
  hydro new AwesomePlugin --editor=code

• -p or --path to specify where to install the application.

  hydro new AwesomePlugin --path=~/Sites

• -m or --message to set the first Git commit message.

  hydro new AwesomePlugin --message="This filament plugin runs fast!"

• -f or --force to force install even if the directory already exists

  # Creates a new scaffolding after deleting ~/Sites/awesome-plugin  
  hydro new AwesomePlugin --force

GitHub Repository Creation

Important: To create new repositories Hydro requires one of the following tools to be installed:

• the official GitHub command line tool
• the hub command line tool

Hydro will give you the option to continue without GitHub repository creation if neither tool is installed.

• -g or --github to Initialize a new private GitHub repository and push your new project to it.

# Repository created at https://github.com/<your_github_username>/awesome-plugin
hydro new AwesomePlugin --github

• Use --gh-public with --github to make the new GitHub repository public.

hydro new AwesomePlugin --github --gh-public

• Use --gh-description with --github to initialize the new GitHub repository with a description.

hydro new AwesomePlugin --github --gh-description='My awesome Filament plugin'

• Use --gh-homepage with --github to initialize the new GitHub repository with a homepage url.

hydro new AwesomePlugin --github --gh-homepage=https://example.com

• Use --gh-org with --github to initialize the new GitHub repository with a specified organization.

# Repository created at https://github.com/acme/awesome-plugin
hydro new AwesomePlugin --github --gh-org=acme
