It is suggested to be used with [lighthouse](https://lighthouse-php.com/). Setup ----- [](#setup) 1. Install the package: ``` composer require --dev brausepulver/laravel-eloquent-to-graphql ``` 2. Type-hint your models' relationships: ``` use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Relations\HasMany; class User extends Model { public function cuteCats(): HasMany { ... } } ``` 3. *(Optional)* Publish the configuration file: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --tag="eloquent_to_graphql.config" ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) ``` php artisan e2gql ``` This will generate a schema for all your models in a single file at `graphql/generated.graphql`. There are several options for customizing the way the schema is generated. Please have a look at them with `php artisan e2gql --help`. Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) ### Automatic Updates [](#automatic-updates) To automatically update the schema every time one of your Eloquent models changes, you can register the command in your IDE of choice with the `--force` option, which disables all prompts. If you are using VSCode, this can be achieved using the [Run on Save](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=emeraldwalk.RunOnSave) extension. After installing the extension, you can add the following to `.vscode/settings.json`: ``` "emeraldwalk.runonsave": { "commands": [ { "match": "app/Models/.*\\.php", "isAsync": true, "cmd": "php artisan e2gql --force" } ] } ``` With standard project structure, this will update your schema every time an Eloquent model changes. ### Custom Type Mappings [](#custom-type-mappings) If your tables have columns with types unknown to DBAL, the command will let you know. In this case, you have two options: 1. Let the command know which type that is known by DBAL you would like to map the unkown type to. You can do this by adding both to `custom_type_mappings` in `config/eloquent_to_graphql.php`: ``` 'custom_type_mappings' => [ 'from-type' => 'to-type' ] ``` 2. Ignore the columns entirely using the `--exclude-columns` option. You can then later add them by hand. TODO ---- [](#todo) - Option to automatically update the schema after migrations are run - Way to keep changes made by the user when regenerating a schema - More customizable type resolution ### Health Score 27 — LowBetter than 49% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity17 Limited adoption so far Community11 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity51 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 89.5% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
