README

This Laravel CRUD Generator package provides and generates Controller, Model (with eloquent relations), Migration, Routes and Views for developing your applications with a single command.

Features

1. Automatically generates files in the proper directory structure:

   • Migration
   • Model
   • Controller
   • Views
   • Routes

2. Interactive prompts for input:

   • Asks for the model name (e.g., Product, User).
   • Collects field names, their data types, and whether they are nullable or not.
   • Allows you to add relationships in the model.

3. Provides options for:

   • Previewing the generated migration file before saving.
   • Editing the migration file directly in the system's editor specified in the configuration file.

4. Automatically propagates updates:

   • If you edit fields in the migration file, these changes will also be applied to dependent components like the $fillable property in models.

5. Controller creation:

   • Choose between generating a basic controller or a resource controller.

6. Route creation:

   • Choose to generate routes in either web.php or api.php.

7. View file generation:

   • Choose to generate blade file or not.

Laravel >= 8.x
PHP >= 7.4

     Example:

        Enter field name (or press enter to stop adding fields):
        > name
        Select field type by default (string):

        [6 ] unsignedBi
        [7 ] json

        [9 ] enum      
        [10] decimal   
        [11] float     
        [12] ipAddress 
        [13] boolean
