SHIELD Best Practice - JanFromHamburg - 06-27-2022
Hi all, sorry upfront for the maybe dumb question:
I can download the Shield files to the 'vendor/codeigniter4' folder with Composer. What then? Would I copy all files from 'vendor/codeigniter4/Shield' to the app folder? (That seems a strange process)
Appreciate your feedback!

Hello
Did you try to use Composer from a terminal to install Shield?
You can use the following command:
PHP Code:
composer require codeigniter4/shield
When I tried to install it, this line did not work and I used
PHP Code:
composer require codeigniter4/shield:dev-develop
You then need to run one or two Spark commands
If it helps, here is the link to the documentation for the complete installation (manual or Composer) : https://github.com/codeigniter4/shield/blob/develop/docs/0%20-%20install.md

Thank you! I struggle a lot with the changes from 3 to 4.
Installation worked out, but how do I use for example the RegisterController.php? Do I need to copy the files to the "app" folder structure or would I set a route to the controller in vendors/codeigniter/shield? As I understand the documentation does not tell...

If you finished setup, the basic functionality will work.
Routes are registered automatically. Run `php spark routes`.
Navigate to http://localhost:8080/register
And see new doc under review:

Lonnie just posted a video on how to install Shield into the framework. Look on the right side for it.
