**Harvest** is a seeder component 🚟 that helps you to bundle automation run by [**Taz**](https://github.com/goldfinch/taz)🌪️.

Install
-------

[](#install)

```
composer require goldfinch/harvest
```

Available Taz commands
----------------------

[](#available-taz-commands)

If you haven't used [**Taz**](https://github.com/goldfinch/taz)🌪️ before, *taz* file must be presented in your root project folder `cp vendor/goldfinch/taz/taz taz`

---

> Create new harvest

```
php taz make:harvest
```

> List all available harvesters

```
php taz harvest
```

> Run specific harvest

```
php taz harvest myharvest
```

> Run all available harvesters

```
php taz harvest:all
```

Use Case example
----------------

[](#use-case-example)

Let's create a new harvest calling *Pages* that will handle Page [Mill](https://github.com/goldfinch/mill) which will generate fake records for us by firing a single command.

#### 1. Create new harvest

[](#1-create-new-harvest)

```
php taz make:harvest Pages
# What [short name] does this harvest need to be called by? : pages
```

After creating new harvest, we need to run dev/build to update harvest list

```
php taz dev/build
```

Now our harvest `pages` should be available in the harvest list, let's check that:

```
php taz harvest
```

#### 2. Create new mill

[](#2-create-new-mill)

As we decide that our harvest will manage mill factory, we need to create one. For more info about mills please refer to [goldfinch/mill](https://github.com/goldfinch/mill)

```
php taz make:mill Page
# What [class name] does this mill is going to work with? : Page
```

Let's modify our Mill by adding some placeholder data:

```
namespace App\Mills;

use Goldfinch\Mill\Mill;

class PageMill extends Mill
{
    public function factory(): array
    {
        return [
            'Title' => $this->faker->catchPhrase(),
            'Content' => $this->faker->paragraph(20),
        ];
    }
}
```

We also need to make sure that `Millable` trait is added to **Page** class as it states in [goldfinch/mill](https://github.com/goldfinch/mill).

```
namespace {

    use Goldfinch\Mill\Traits\Millable;
    use SilverStripe\CMS\Model\SiteTree;

    class Page extends SiteTree
    {
        use Millable;

        private static $db = [];
    }
}
```

#### 3. Prepare your harvest

[](#3-prepare-your-harvest)

Now we can go back to our **PageHarvest** that was created by **Taz** in the first step and add our mill to it.

```
namespace App\Harvest;

use Goldfinch\Harvest\Harvest;

class PagesHarvest extends Harvest
{
    public static function run(): void
    {
        \Page::mill(10)->make();
    }
}
```

#### 4. Use harvest

[](#4-use-harvest)

Now our harvest is ready to rock along with **Taz**. By firing our harvest, we should get 10 newly generated pages in admin site tree.

```
php taz harvest pages
```
