Installation

composer require rishpandey/laravel-auto-migration

Usage

In order to use automatic migrations, simply specify a migration method in your model:

class Lead extends Model
{

    public function migration(Blueprint $table)
    {
        $table->id();
        $table->string('name');
        $table->timestamps();
    }

Now run the automatic migration command:

php artisan migrate:auto

The package uses Doctrine DBAL in order to diff the existing model table and make the necessary changes to it. If the table does not exist, it will create it.

By default the package looks under "App\Models" for your models, but you can pass a --base to specify that models exists under "App":

php artisan migrate:auto --base

You can also pass --fresh and/or --seed to the migrate:auto command in order to get fresh migrations and/or run your seeders afterwards:

php artisan migrate:auto --fresh --seed

If your app contains traditional migrations in the database/migrations folder, they will be handled before the automatic migrations.
