### Migration

[](#migration)

After running `php artisan vendor:publish` you can directly run:

```
php artisan migrate

```

### Seeders

[](#seeders)

In order to seed the migrated tables, you need to edit `database/seeds/DatabaseSeeder.php` and add the following lines:

```
public function run()
{
    Model::unguard();

    $this->call('Dukenicols\WorldCountriesCities\CitiesSeeder');
    $this->call('Dukenicols\WorldCountriesCities\CountriesSeeder');
}
```

Then run:

```
php artisan db:seed

```

Be careful, the seeders files truncate the tables before inserting, to prevent any duplication.

### Direct usage

[](#direct-usage)

To be implementated.
