A small CodeIgniter seeder package for creating repeatable database seed scripts that can be listed and executed from the command line.

Language
--------

[](#language)

[en-us](README.md) / [zh-tw](README-zh-tw.md)

Why This Package?
-----------------

[](#why-this-package)

CodeIgniter does not include a Laravel-style database seeder workflow by default. This package provides a lightweight seeder controller and base class so existing CodeIgniter applications can seed development data, lookup tables, roles, settings, and demo records with predictable CLI commands.

It is intentionally small: seed files are plain PHP classes, database writes use CodeIgniter's existing database layer, and the runner can be added to an existing project with minimal setup.

Features
--------

[](#features)

- Add database seeders to a CodeIgniter project without building a custom runner.
- Run all seeders or execute one specific seeder by class name.
- Control execution order with a simple `$priority` property.
- List available seeders and their priority from the CLI.
- Use the normal CodeIgniter instance inside seeders through `$this->CI`.
- Restrict browser access to local, private network, or development environments.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require fishingboy/codeigniter-seeder
```
