README
I'm very sorry to announce that I no longer have time to maintain this package. This project was originally created over a couple of days when I needed to migrate an existing project onto Laravel. Even though it's being actively used (over 50k installs!), I can't find the time to keep track of the PRs and what changes might break things in new/old Laravel versions, nor have I had the need to use it after the initial release. The codebase is a mess and it desperately cries for a rewrite.
Please use reliese/laravel package instead.
Model Generator
Laravel 5 model generator for an existing schema.
It plugs into your existing database and generates model class files based on the existing tables.
Installation
composer require ignasbernotas/laravel-model-generator --dev
You'll only want to use these generators for local development, so you don't want to update the production providers array in config/app.php
. Instead, add the provider in app/Providers/AppServiceProvider.php
, like so:
<?php public function register() { if ($this->app->environment() == 'local') { $this->app->register('Iber\Generator\ModelGeneratorProvider'); } }
