I'm writing an app using Laravel 4.2. This time, I needed some extra functionality and I decided to create a package. I used the workbench
functionality as described in Laravel's docs.
Currently (and locally), the package is very small but it suits my app very well. I don't think this should be published to the community because it is still very green. I'll put a few hours into it when I finish with my app but I can't right now.
Now, I know the workbench/
directory is not to be pushed to production. Then, how do I use my package on production?
So far, I heard I have to push the package to GitHub (which I already did), and then publish it on Packagist. But I feel that publishing the script as is won't be helpful to others and might as well harm those in search of this functionality (like me a few days ago) on this so under developed package.
Is there a way to add my package to my app's composer.json
and have it installed without publishing it to the community while it's under development?
