# Installating JOSH

Please follow installation steps mentioned in "Laravel 5.1" but with following change in composer.

## composer changes

We Assume, your composer already includes `"laravel/framework": "5.2.*",`

### laravelcollective/html

Now, instead of ~~`"laravelcollective/html": "5.1.*",`~~

Use `"laravelcollective/html": "5.2.*",`

Finally your composer.json, `require` array should have these

```
"laravelcollective/html": "5.2.",
"cartalyst/sentinel": "2.0.",
"cviebrock/eloquent-sluggable": "dev-master",
"cviebrock/eloquent-taggable": "~2.0.0",
"yajra/laravel-datatables-oracle": "~5.0"
```

## Routes changes

We need to wrap all routes in routes.php with `web` middleware, like below

```php
Route::group(['middleware' => 'web'], function () {

    /*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Application Routes
|------------------------------------------------------------------


...
//all other routes
...

Route::get('{name?}', 'JoshController@showFrontEndView');
# End of frontend views

});
```

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://lorvent.gitbook.io/josh/index/instllating_josh.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
