README
Create a new Apache virtual host in seconds when using Xampp for Windows
Installation
Install using composer globally using the following command:
composer global require "djam90/xampper=1.0.1"
Usage
1- Ensure that your composer bin directory is in your PATH by running the following, assuming a default Composer installation: setx path "%path%;%APPDATA%\Composer\vendor\bin;"
2- Run from the command line: xampper new
Assumptions
- You have the latest Xampp for Windows, with Apache 2.4
- Your hosts file is located at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
- Your Apache virtual hosts file is located at C:\xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.conf
What Happens?
This package will add an extra virtual host at the bottom of your file, and an entry into the hosts file, something I have to do regularly when creating a new project every other day.
