Sphere : Live Wallpaper App | Android Wallpaper app with admin panel (Laravel)

Here's a tutorial on how to use the Sphere Live Wallpaper app and create an administrator panel using Laravel:

Introduction

The Sphere Live Wallpaper app is an Android app that allows users to customize their mobile background with dynamic visuals and animation effects. By incorporating Laravel, a popular PHP framework, we can create an administrator panel to manage these effects, making it possible for developers to easily configure and deploy the app's live wallpaper features.

This tutorial will guide you through the process of setting up the Sphere Live Wallpaper app, creating an administrator panel using Laravel, and implementing user management and live wallpaper management functionality.

Part 1: Setting Up the Sphere Live Wallpaper App

Before we dive into creating the administrator panel, let's set up the Sphere Live Wallpaper app:

Step 1: Install the Sphere Live Wallpaper App

Download and install the Sphere Live Wallpaper app from the Google Play Store.

Step 2: Create a New Background

Launch the app, and navigate to the "Create" tab. Create a new background by tapping on the "+" icon at the top-right corner.

Step 3: Select a Wallpaper Type

Choose the type of wallpaper you want to create by selecting one of the three options:

• Image Wallpaper: Select a static image to set as your live wallpaper.
• Video Wallpaper: Record or select a video to set as your live wallpaper.
• Glitch Wallpaper: Create a custom glitch effect using shapes, colors, and particles.

Step 4: Configure Wallpaper Settings

Customize your wallpaper by adjusting the settings, such as brightness, contrast, and zoom.

Part 2: Creating an Administrator Panel with Laravel

Now that we have our Sphere Live Wallpaper app set up, let's create an administrator panel using Laravel:

Step 5: Install Laravel

Download and install Laravel using composer: composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel sphere-live

Step 6: Create an Administrator User

In the users table, create a new row for the administrator:

Step 7: Create an Administrator Panel Routes

In the routes/web.php file, add the following routes to define the administrator panel pages:

// Define the routes for the administrator panel
Route::group(['prefix' => '/admin'], function () {
    Route::get('/wallpapers', 'AdminWallpaperController@index')->name('wallpapers.index');
    Route::get('/wallpapers/{wallpaper}', 'AdminWallpaperController@edit')->name('wallpapers.edit');
    Route::post('/wallpapers/{wallpaper}', 'AdminWallpaperController@update')->name('wallpapers.update');
    Route::delete('/wallpapers/{wallpaper}', 'AdminWallpaperController@destroy')->name('wallpapers.destroy');
    Route::get('/wallpapers/create', 'AdminWallpaperController@create')->name('wallpapers.create');
    Route::post('/wallpapers', 'AdminWallpaperController@store')->name('wallpapers.store');
});

Step 8: Create an Administrator Panel Views

Create new views for the administrator panel in the resources/views/admin directory:

1. wallpapers/index.blade.php for the list of wallpapers.
2. wallpapers/edit.blade.php for the edit wallpaper page.
3. wallpapers/create.blade.php for the create new wallpaper page.

Part 3: Implementing User Management and Live Wallpaper Management

Now that our administrator panel is set up, let's implement user management and live wallpaper management functionality:

Step 9: Implement User Management

Create a new file in the app/Models directory called User.php. This will house the logic for user registration and login:

// app/Models/User.php

namespace AppModels;

use IlluminateSupportFacadesAuth;
use AppWallpaper;

class User extends IlluminateContractsAuthModel implements IlluminateContractsAuthAuthenticatable, IlluminateContractsAuthResettable
{
    protected $fillable = [
        'name', 'email', 'password'
    ];

    protected $hidden = [
        'password', 'remember_token',
    ];

    public function isValid(UserFormValidationRequest $request)
    {
        $validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
            'name' => 'required|min:4',
            'email' => 'required|email|unique:users',
            'password' => 'required|min:6',
        ]);

        if ($validator->fails()) {
            return Response::json(['error' => 'Invalid form']);
        }
    }

    public function register(UserRegistrationRequest $request)
    {
        $user = new self();
        $user->name = $request->input('name');
        $user->email = $request->input('email');
        $user->password = Hash::make($request->input('password'));
        $user->save();

        Auth::login($user);
    }

    public function login(UserAuthenticationRequest $request)
    {
        if (Auth::attempt(['email' => $request->input('email'), 'password' => $request->input('password')])) {
            return redirect(route('home'));
        }

        return Response::json(['error' => 'Invalid login credentials']);
    }

    public function getUserList()
    {
        $users = User::paginate(10);

        return $users;
    }

    public function getSpecificUser($id)
    {
        $user = User::find($id);

        return $user;
    }

    public function editUser($id, Request $request)
    {
        $user = User::find($id);

        $validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
            'name' => 'required|min:4',
            'email' => 'required|email|unique:users,'.$user->id,
            'password' => 'min:6',
        ]);

        if ($validator->fails()) {
            return Response::json(['error' => 'Invalid form']);
        }

        $user->name = $request->input('name');
        $user->email = $request->input('email');
        if (!empty($request->input('password'))) {
            $user->password = Hash::make($request->input('password'));
        }
        $user->save();
    }

    public function deleteUser($id)
    {
        $user = User::find($id);
        $user->delete();

        return response()->json(['message' => 'User deleted']);
    }
}

Step 10: Implement Live Wallpaper Management

Create a new file in the app/Models directory called Wallpaper.php. This will house the logic for wallpaper management:

// app/Models/Wallpaper.php

namespace AppModels;

use IlluminateDatabaseEloquentModel;

class Wallpaper extends Model
{
    protected $fillable = [
        'name', 'type', 'source', 'settings',
    ];

    protected $hidden = [
        'id',
    ];

    public function getWallpapers()
    {
        $wallpapers = Wallpaper::paginate(10);

        return $wallpapers;
    }

    public function getWallpaper($id)
    {
        $wallpaper = Wallpaper::find($id);

        return $wallpaper;
    }

    public function updateWallpaper($id, Request $request)
    {
        $wallpaper = Wallpaper::find($id);

        $validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
            'name' => 'required|min:4',
            'type' => 'required',
            'source' => 'required',
            'settings' => 'required',
        ]);

        if ($validator->fails()) {
            return Response::json(['error' => 'Invalid form']);
        }

        $wallpaper->name = $request->input('name');
        $wallpaper->type = $request->input('type');
        $wallpaper->source = $request->input('source');
        $wallpaper->settings = $request->input('settings');
        $wallpaper->save();

        return Response::json(['message' => 'Wallpaper updated']);
    }

    public function deleteWallpaper($id)
    {
        $wallpaper = Wallpaper::find($id);
        $wallpaper->delete();

        return response()->json(['message' => 'Wallpaper deleted']);
    }
}

And that's it! With this tutorial, you should have a working administrator panel that allows you to manage your live wallpapers and users using Laravel.

Conclusion

By following this tutorial, we have created a comprehensive Live Wallpaper app with an Administrator Panel using Laravel.
