Installation

Add repository to composer.json

{
    "repositories": [
        {
          "type": "composer",
          "url": "http://packages.firegento.com"
        }
    ],
    "require": {
        "liip/liip-magento-shared": "1.*",
    },
    "extra":{
        "magento-root-dir": "./"
    }
}

Install package through composer

$ ./composer.phar install

Usage

The module renames its Magento namespace as liip. Therefore, you access models and helpers as Mage::getModel('liip/connection_curl') or Mage::helper('liip').

Use the Setup class in your module

In your module's config.xml, specify the new setup class

<global>
    <resources>
        <mymodule_setup>
            <setup>
                <module>Liip_Shared</module>
                <class>Liip_Shared_Model_Resource_Setup</class>
            </setup>
        </mymodule_setup>
    </resources>
</global>
