Migration of workbench package does not work.

[buhl]

running

php artisan migrate --bench=vendor/package

fails with

PHP Fatal error:  Class 'CreateContentTables' not found in /home/mgb/src/laravel4/laravel/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Database/Migrations/Migrator.php on line 290

if I add the path

workbench/vendor/package/src/migrations

To autoload.classmaps in composer.json it works fine.
I havn't tested it but I am sure composer packages in vendor/ will have the same problem.

You aren't meant to use bench like that, it is only used for your own workbenches. In this case I believe you use ./artisan migrate --package=vendor/package

Sorry for the confusion. This is my own WIP package. I run

php artisan migrate --bench=buhl/content

the problem seems to lie here:
https://github.com/laravel/framework/blob/master/src/Illuminate/Database/Migrations/Migrator.php#L284

the Migrator->resolve($file) method is not aware of workbench or vendor paths and will look for (in my case) \CreateContentTables which can't be resolved unless I add the migration folder to composer.json classmaps directive.

Ah alright, I am still waking up and read your command a bit wrong. If I get a chance I will test to see if I have the same issue later.

Yeah mate it should work fine. Make sure your package in your workbench has src/migrations in the classmap of composer.json. Then cd workbench/<vendor>/<package> and run a composer dump-autoload. The workbench service should pick up the autoload file and also autoload everything within your package so you'll be able to run migrations.

I can confirm that running migrations within a workbench package is working.

It is work fine for me

[buhl]

Yeah, that worked for me too. I forgot the composer dump-autoload in workbench//.
Thanks!
