It is highly customizable. Behind the scenes, it uses [GraphViz](https://www.graphviz.org) to generate the graph. > If you want to learn how to create reusable PHP packages yourself, take a look at my upcoming [PHP Package Development](https://phppackagedevelopment.com) video course. Prerequisites ------------- [](#prerequisites) The minimum required PHP version is 7.1.0 - compatible to PHP 8.0 Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) This package requires the `graphviz` tool. You can install Graphviz on MacOS via homebrew: ``` brew install graphviz ``` Or, if you are using Homestead: ``` sudo apt-get install graphviz ``` To install Graphviz on Windows, download it from the [official website](https://graphviz.gitlab.io/_pages/Download/Download_windows.html). Installation ------------ [](#installation) You can install the package via composer: ``` composer require cierrateam/laravel-er-diagram-generator --dev ``` If you are using Laravel 5.5+, the package will automatically register the service provider for you. If you are using Lumen, you will need to add the following to `bootstrap\app.php`: ``` \\ Register Service Providers $app->register(Cierra\ErdGenerator\ErdGeneratorServiceProvider::class); ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) By default, the package will automatically detect all models in your `app` directory that extend the Eloquent Model class. If you would like you explicitly define where your models are located, you can publish the configuration file using the following command. ``` php artisan vendor:publish --provider=Cierra\\ErdGenerator\\ErdGeneratorServiceProvider ``` If you're using Lumen and you want to customize the config, you'll need to copy the config file from the vendor directory: ``` cp ./vendor/cierrateam/laravel-er-diagram-generator/config/config.php config/erd-generator.php ``` Generating Diagrams ------------------- [](#generating-diagrams) You can generate entity relation diagrams using the provided artisan command: ``` php artisan generate:erd ``` This will generate a file called `graph.png`. You can also specify a custom filename: ``` php artisan generate:erd output.png ``` Or use one of the other [output formats](https://www.graphviz.org/doc/info/output.html), like SVG: ``` php artisan generate:erd output.svg --format=svg ``` Customization ------------- [](#customization) Please take a look at the published `erd-generator.php` configuration file for all available customization options. Examples -------- [](#examples) Here are some examples taken from the [Laravel.io](https://laravel.io) codebase.
