Installation ------------ [](#installation) Install via composer ``` composer require arbitraer/laravel-fresh-seeds ``` Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) After installation you can publish the config file: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Arbitraer\FreshSeeds\FreshSeedsServiceProvider" --tag="config" ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) To seed the default Laravel database seeder `database/seeders/DatabaseSeeder.php` with a fresh migration: ``` php artisan fresh ``` ### Creating a suite [](#creating-a-suite) If you find yourself calling different seeders for different cases (testing, demoing or setting up the application) with a fresh migration, you can create dedicated seeder suites in the `app/config/fresh-seeds.php` config file, referencing a seeder class in `database/seeders/` and then run a fast and easy to remember command: ``` ... 'suites' => [ 'basic' => 'DatabaseSeeder', 'demo' => 'DemoDatabaseSeeder' ], ... ``` Then you can use the `--suite=` or `-s` option with this command to specify the desired seeder suite: ``` php artisan fresh -s demo ``` Everytime you add a new seeder suite you'll have to perform a composer dump autoload: ``` composer dump-autoload ``` ### Changing the default suite [](#changing-the-default-suite) You can change the default suite to be run when calling `php artisan fresh` by changing the `default_suite` setting in the `fresh-seeds.php` config file or by adding the `SEED_SUITE_DEFAULT` variable to your `.env` file: ``` SEED_SUITE_DEFAULT=demo ``` ### Suggested structure [](#suggested-structure) It can make sense, to move the **table** seeds into single files within a seperate folder in the `database/seeders/` directory and then call them from your seeder suite classes. This way you can easily reuse them from different suites. For example: ``` . ├── ... ├── database │ ├── ... │ ├── ... │ └── seeders │ ├── DatabaseSeeder.php │ ├── DemoDatabaseSeeder.php # custom seeder suite that calls the required table seeds │ └── seeds │ └── PostTableSeeder.php # a post table seed callable by different seeder suites │ └── ... └── ... ``` To get you started with this structure, this package provides some example files and folders according to the examples in the published config file: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Arbitraer\FreshSeeds\FreshSeedsServiceProvider" --tag="suites" ``` Testing ------- [](#testing) ``` composer test ``` Credits ------- [](#credits) [arbiträr](https://arbitraer.de) – Digital agency for web development in Flensburg, Germany License ------- [](#license) The MIT License (MIT).
