Create Lumen Packages

This will be a short article on how to create a route inside lumen package. A package might be useful if you want to separate some business logic out of the main code or just want to make it shareable. For initial step please follow https://laravelpackage.com, I was from there but unfortunately my package not working since I’m using Lumen 8.x, if you had same case with me then you can try steps below:

Controllers

use Laravel\Lumen\Routing\Controller as BaseController instead of Illuminate\Routing\Controller

// 'src/Http/Controllers/Controller.php'
<?php
namespace JohnDoe\BlogPackage\Http\Controllers;
use Laravel\Lumen\Routing\Controller as BaseController;
class Controller extends BaseController
{ }

Routes

You can follow the same pattern to create route:

// 'routes/web.php'
<?php
$router->group(['prefix'=> 'blog'], function() use ($router) {
$router->post('hello', [
      'uses' => 'PostController@index'
   ]);
});

but you need to register route in service provider like below:

// 'src/BlogPackageServiceProvider.php'
<?php
namespace JohnDoe\BlogPackage;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;

class BlogPackageServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
  public function register()
  {
    //
  }

  public function boot()
  {
    $this->app->router->group([
       'namespace' => 'JohnDoe\BlogPackage\Http\Controllers',
    ], function ($router) {
       require __DIR__.'/../routes/web.php';
    });
  }
}
