Requirements

1. PHP 5.6+
2. Laravel 5.2+

Usage

Step 1: Install through Composer

composer require "laracademy/model-generator"

Step 2: Add the Service Provider

The easiest method is to add the following into your config/app.php file, _(*5)

Laracademy\ModelGenerator\ModelGeneratorServiceProvider::class

Depending on your set up you may want to only use these providers for development, so you don't update your production servers. Instead, add the provider in `app/Providers/AppServiceProvider.php' like so, _(*6)

public function register()
{
    if($this->app->environment() == 'local') {
        $this->app->register('\Laracademy\ModelGenerator\ModelGeneratorServiceProvider');
    }
}

Artisan

Now that we have added the generator to our project the last thing to do is run Laravel's Arisan command, _(*7)

php artisan

You will see the following in the list, _(*8)

generate:model

The command comes with a bunch of different options and they are listed below, _(*9)

• --table=
  • this can either be a single table, or a list of tables separated by a comma
• --all
  • this will ignore any tables that you have added and generate a full list of tables within your database to generate models for
  • please note that this command will only ignore the migrations table and no model will be generate for it
• --connection= *
• --debug
  • this shows some more information while running

Examples

Generating a single table

php artisan generate:model --table=users

Generating a multiple tables

php artisan generate:model --table=users,posts

Generating all tables

php artisan generate:model --all

Changing to another connection found in database.php and generating models for all tables
