irishtitan/handshake v1.2.0

Make the Magento 2 development process easier.

Handshake

Handshake is a Magento 2 module that is designed to make the Magento 2 module development experience easier and more elegant. It does this by replacing the default Magento 2 ORM system with Laravel's Eloquent Library. Any custom Magento 2 module you build using Handshake can use Laravel style Migrations, Seeders, Models, Sessions and more with corresponding commands.

Installation

Before you install Handshake, make sure you have a working copy of Magento 2. Also make sure that Magento 2 is properly configured as Handshake will try and use Magento 2's database configuration to run your migrations, seeds, etc.

You can install Handshake with composer:

composer require irishtitan/handshake

After composer pulls in Handshake, you need to enable Handshake:

php bin/magento module:enable IrishTitan_Handshake

Finish the installation by running:

php bin/magento handshake:install

If everything went smoothly, you are now ready to begin developing Magento 2 modules with Handshake.

Usage

To see a list of Handshake commands run:

php bin/magento

Scroll through the list until you see the Handshake section.

Creating a New Module

To create a new Magento 2 module, you can use the handshake:make:module command:

php bin/magento handshake:make:module Namespace Module

The handshake:make:module command accepts two arguments. Namespace is your vendor name and Module is the name of your module.

For example, php bin/magento handshake:make:module Acme Forum.
