laravel-model-builder
=====================

[](#laravel-model-builder)

Laravel Model Builder, a poor attempt to reverse engineer a MySQL database to Laravel models.

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

Add the following to your composer.json:

```
"require": {
    "jimbolino/laravel-model-builder" : "dev-master"
},
```

Add to your routes.php:

```
Route::get('/generate/models', '\\Jimbolino\\Laravel\\ModelBuilder\\ModelGenerator5@start');
```

Run the url, and your models will be created in the storage\\models folder so you have to manually copy them to your real models folder. Or better, use a tool like beyond compare to update your current models.

Known Issues
============

[](#known-issues)

- Relation to itself (parent\_id, child\_id etc) will result in duplicate function names
- Multiple foreign keys between tables will also not work
- correct detection of $timestamps value
