Installing Wire

The whole stack in one require, and one interactive command that turns a clean Laravel into a working admin.

On this page 
composer require nyoncode/wire-suite
php artisan wire:install

The first line brings core, forms, tables, sortable, resources and the admin shell. The second sets them up — interactively, one part at a time, running each package's own installer rather than a copy of it.

What The Installer Does

 INFO  Found in this application
 
  • Core — nyoncode/wire-core
  • Forms — nyoncode/wire-forms
  • Tables — nyoncode/wire-table
  • Admin shell — nyoncode/wire-admin
 
 Which parts should be set up? [All of them]

  User administration, with roles where the application has them.
  composer require nyoncode/wire-module-users
  …

Everything is offered pre-selected: an installer whose default is "nothing" makes the common case the tedious one. --all skips the question, which is what a scripted setup wants.

It never runs composer. Offering a module that is not installed is the point of that second list, and the answer is a line to paste. An artisan command that shells out to composer runs inside the application it is about to change — the autoloader in use is the one composer is rewriting — and the failure modes (memory limits, plugins, a production image with no composer at all) are the ones nobody can debug from a stack trace.

A part whose provider is not loaded is reported, not fatal. A class can be autoloadable while its provider is absent — a dont-discover entry, a package registered in one environment only — and calling a command that is not there would otherwise abort the whole run.

The Modules

Each is a separate composer require, because an application that wants users and nothing else should not carry a media library:

Module Package
Users nyoncode/wire-module-users
Settings nyoncode/wire-module-settings
Audit log nyoncode/wire-module-audit
Notifications nyoncode/wire-module-notifications
Media nyoncode/wire-module-media

Install one and run php artisan wire:install again; it registers itself, so there is nothing to add to a config file.

What Is Left To You

Two things the installer will not decide:

// routes/web.php — the middleware and the prefix are yours
Route::middleware(['web', 'auth'])->prefix('admin')->group(fn () => Route::wireResources());
php artisan migrate

Every Command This Ships

wire:install runs the per-package installers for you; each is also callable on its own, which is what an application adding one package later reaches for:

php artisan wire:install                      # the interactive setup over everything installed
php artisan wire-core:install                 # one package at a time — config, assets, translations
php artisan wire-forms:install
php artisan wire-table:install
php artisan wire-sortable:install
php artisan wire-admin:install                # also writes the layout and the Tailwind @source line
php artisan wire-module-users:install         # …and one per installed module
php artisan wire-boost:install --agent=claude # AI agent guidelines and the MCP entry

Two generators and three maintenance commands come with them:

Command What it does
make:wire-dashboard A dashboard class in app/Dashboards, ready to name widgets — a dashboard is written, not shipped
wire-core:audit-prune --days= Delete audit entries older than the retention window (Audit Log)
wire-core:notifications-prune The same for stored notifications
wire-module-media:thumbnails (Re)generate conversions for library files (Media)
wire-module-media:usage Recompute where each file is used
wire-boost:update Refresh the AI guidelines after an upgrade
wire-boost:mcp Run the MCP server (Boost)
