What if you want to seed a production database with different data from what you use in development? What if you want to seed a table you've added to a database that is currently in production with new data? LaravelSeeder takes the database migration features in Laravel and extends them to database seeders, making them "migratable". All of the functionality you have grown accustomed to with Laravel migrations have been mirrored and behave similarly for seeders. Requirements ============ [](#requirements) - Laravel >= 5.4 - PHP >= 7.1 Installation ============ [](#installation) - Run `composer require eighty8/laravel-seeder` - Add `LucaTerribili\LaravelSeeder\SeederServiceProvider::class` to your providers array in `app/config/app.php` - Run `php artisan vendor:publish` to push config files to your config folder if you want to override the name of the seeds folder or the name of the table where seeds are stored Features ======== [](#features) - Allows you to seed databases in different environments with different values. - Allows you to "version" seeds the same way that Laravel currently handles migrations. Running `php artisan seed` will only run seeds that haven't already been run. - Allows you to run multiple seeds of the same model/table - Prompts you if your database is in production Usage ===== [](#usage) When you install LaravelSeeder, various artisan commands are made available to you which use the same methodology you're used to using with Migrations. seedRuns all the seeds in the "seeders" directory that haven't been run yet.seed:rollbackRollback doesn't undo seeding (which would be impossible with an auto-incrementing primary key). It just allows you to re-run the last batch of seeds.seed:resetResets all the seeds.seed:refreshResets and re-runs all seeds.seed:statusGets the status of each migratable seeder.seed:makeMakes a new seed class in the environment you specify.seed:installYou don't have to use this... it will be run automatically when you call "seed"Local Development ================= [](#local-development) A Dockerfile with PHP 7.2, XDebug and Composer installed is bundled with the project to facilitate local development. To easily bring up the local development environment, use the Docker Compose configuration: ``` docker-compose up -d --build ``` By default, the entrypoint script will install the Composer dependencies for you. To run the test suite, execute the following: ``` docker-compose exec laravel-seeder test.sh ``` To run the code coverage suite, execute the following: ``` docker-compose exec laravel-seeder code-coverage.sh ``` Happy testing! ### Health Score 33 — LowBetter than 72% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity12 Limited adoption so far Community15 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity74 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor2 2 contributors hold 50%+ of commits How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
