Structure of a Laravel application
Structure of a Laravel application.
In the next two chapters, we will be installing Laravel and creating our first application. Any new project already has a complete directory tree and even some placeholder files to get you up and running in very little time. This structure is a great starting point, but as we will see in the final chapter of this book, it is also customizable. Here is what it looks like:
|
./app/
|
# Your Laravel application
|
|
./app/commands/
|
# - Command line scripts
|
|
./app/config/
|
# - Configuration files
|
|
./app/controllers/
|
# - Controllers
|
|
./app/database/
|
# - Database migrations and
seeders
|
|
./app/lang/
|
# - Localisation variables
|
|
./app/models/
|
# - Classes used to
represent entities
|
|
./app/start/
|
# - Startup scripts
|
|
./app/storage/
|
# - Cache and logs
directory
|
|
./app/tests/
|
# - Test cases
|
|
./app/views/
|
# - Templates that are
rendered to HTML
|
|
./app/filters.php
|
# -
Filters executed before/after a request
|
|
./app/routes.php
|
# - URLs and actions
|
|
./bootstrap/
|
# Application bootstrapping
scripts
|
|
./public/
|
# Document root
|
|
./public/.htaccess
|
# - Sends incoming requests
to index.php
|
|
./public/index.php
|
# - Starts Laravel
application
|
|
./vendor/
|
# Third-party dependencies
installed
|
|
|
through Composer
|
|
./artisan*
|
# Artisan command line
utility
|
|
./composer.json
|
# Project dependencies
|
|
./phpunit.xml
|
# Test configuration file
for PHPUnit
|
|
./server.php
|
# Local development server
|
Like
the rest of Laravel, the naming is expressive, and it is easy to guess what
each folder is for. On the first level, there are four directories, app/,
bootstrap/,
public/,
and vendor/. All your server-side code will reside in
the app/ directory,
inside which you will find the three
directories that hold the files for the controllers, models, and views. We will
explore the responsibilities of each directory further in the next chapters.
