Laravel Automatic Migrations
============================

[](#laravel-automatic-migrations)

Instead of having to create and manage migration files, this package allows you to specify your migrations inside your model classes via a `migration` method. When you run the `migrate:auto` command, it uses Doctrine to compare your model `migration` methods to the existing schema, and applies the changes automatically.

This package works fine alongside traditional Laravel migration files, for the cases where you still need migrations that are not coupled to a model. When you run the `migrate:auto` command, it will run your traditional migrations first, and the automatic migrations afterwards.

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

[](#installation)

Require the package via composer:

```
composer require laravel-auto/migrations
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Declare a static `migration` method in your models:

```
namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class MyModel extends Model
{
   public static function migration(Blueprint $table)
   {
       $table->id();
       $table->string('name');
       $table->timestamp('created_at')->nullable();
       $table->timestamp('updated_at')->nullable();
   }
}
```

Run the `migrate:auto` command:

```
php artisan migrate:auto
```

Commands
--------

[](#commands)

### Making Models

[](#making-models)

Make a model with a `migration` method included:

```
php artisan make:amodel {class} {--force} {--f|no-factory} {--s|no-soft-delete} {--m|no-static-migration}
```

This command will also make a factory whose `definition` points to the model method. Use `--force` to overwrite an existing model.

### Running Migrations

[](#running-migrations)

Run automatic migrations:

```
php artisan migrate:auto {--f|--fresh} {--s|--seed} {--force}
```

Use `-f` to wipe the database, `-s` to seed after migration, and `--force` to run migrations in production.

Migration Order
---------------

[](#migration-order)

You can specify the order to run your model migrations by adding a public `migrationOrder` property to your models. This is useful for pivot tables or situations where you must create a certain table before another.

```
class MyModel extends Model
{
    public $migrationOrder = 1;

    public function migration(Blueprint $table)
    {
        $table->id();
        $table->string('name');
        $table->timestamp('created_at')->nullable();
        $table->timestamp('updated_at')->nullable();
    }
}
```

The `migrate:auto` command will run the automatic migrations in the order specified. If no order is declared for a model, it will default to `0`. Thanks to [@vincentkedison](https://github.com/vincentkedison) for this idea.

Publishing Stubs
----------------

[](#publishing-stubs)

Use your own model and factory stubs by publishing package files:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=laravel-automatic-migrations
```

Update the `stub_path` in `config/auto-migrate.php`:

```
'stub_path' => resource_path('stubs/vendor/laravel-automatic-migrations'),
```

Now edit the stub files inside `resources/stubs/vendor/laravel-automatic-migrations`. Commands will now use these stub files to make models and factories.
